I agree with you about song choice... classic love songs are cross-generational for a reason! And I LOVE the beach boy song "God Only Knows"! You must share your pictures.

I could never imagine having skipped my first dance. Ours was to "God Only Knows" by the Beach Boys. It was a huge, cross-generational, hit with our guests. I think all the baby boomers present thought it was cool that we picked a song from their era and our friends and peers recognized it for the timeless love song it is. We didn't choreograph it, and I fully expected the DJ to invite the bridal party to join in at the song's bridge (I originally thought that might take some of the pressure off), but he didn't and I was glad. Some of my favorite pictures from my wedding are from the first dance. My husband and I look so in love and the happy faces of our friends and family watching (and singing, or crying, or smiling...) make for some priceless memories. Great post! Great advice Candace!
