First Dance Song is harder to pick than one would think

Everyone wants their first dance song to be perfect and I know TD and I spent many nights discussing what song we would dance to first. Our "song" is an embarrassing one. I am woman enough to admit that it is "Right Here Waiting For You" by Richard Marx but I was NOT about to have the notes of the 80's hit recreated during our first dance! We threw around a few ideas (even thought about choreographing a little number) and in the end, we decided we really wanted our good friend Ross to sing "In My Life". We are, as you can tell, BIG beatles fans and so ultimately...this was the right choice for us!


I am sure that many of you brides (and grooms) want that perfect song and so here is a list of some classic first dance songs and some new ideas that might spark your creativity!
