I think we'll go for a Spanish song
so that he doesn't come with this prejudices. If it's a pretty song that he likes, including lyrics, and I like it too, and it means something to both of us, that's it.

I wanted Highway to hell first, and then Living on a pray, but it seems they're not good for a first dance.

At least we have choosen our cocktail music, wich is going to be all OSTs that we like, such as Star Trek, Back to the future, Superman, Starwars, The Lord of the rings...

that's the sort of thing to go for :-)
highway to hell would be good. most people would probably frown though. the tossers.

that's a cool idea. I'm planning to get some friends of friends to play guitar and sing while we have drinks and canapes etc. they play stuff like john martyn and robert plant + alison krauss, and do it really well

That sounds cool
I don't know how easy is to find a first song that is easy to dance, is romantic, brings some good memories to both of us about us and doesn't sound cheesy.

I think going for Spanish will save me from a lot of discussing.

We want a theme for each part of the wedding, at the moment we have only agreed about the OSTs, but that's easy.

finding something to fit all of those is quite hard
fortunately I think about music more than anything else, so haven't done too badly.

we're avoiding themes and stuff where possible. Keeping everything pretty simple (and cheap). I just want everyone to have some good food and have a good time really. Without financially crippling myself (more so than I have already)

I organised the music for a friend's wedding earlier this year
They already had a DJ booked, but needed music for the actual ceremony (civil service do in the hotel). Music soundtrack stuff like LotR, Batman Begins, Star Wars etc were chosen for the milling around, then the bride walked down the aisle to the Mission Impossible tune.
They also exited to the Indiana Jones theme ;)
