Choosing a Great Song for Your Wedding Dance


Most Wedding Dance Song lists are based on popularity alone.  Often times couples will chose a song they love without considering the lyrics.  Examples of this type of song are the song from “Titanic” and “I Will Always Love You” by Whitney Houston.  It is a beautiful song and a popular choice for weddings.  However, they contain lines like, “My heart will go on,” and “I’m not what you need.” These foresee the end of the relationship and therefore are inappropriate for a wedding song which should be upbeat and celebrate the couple.
