I like Endless love...Lionel and Diana. A bit predictable but still very nice.

Have you seen the youtube video of the couple that started dancing to Endless love at their wedding reception then broke out into dancehall then rap then hip pop...VERY original...great laugh as well. You could include arabic, hindi...all sorts of beats...LOL

From This Moment by Shania Twain... I've included the lyrics if you're not familiar with the song.. its a very nice wedding song....

"From this moment life has begun
From this moment you are the one
Right beside you is where I belong
From this moment on

From this moment I have been blessed
I live only for your happiness
And for your love Id give my last breath
From this moment on

I give my hand to you with all my heart
Cant wait to live my life with you, cant wait to start
You and I will never be apart
My dreams came true because of you

From this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldnt give
From this moment on

Youre the reason I believe in love
And youre the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams came true because of you

From this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
From this moment
I will love you as long as I live
From this moment on"

....hope you like it

I would have gone for "Fools Rush in".

By the way, dancing by couples at some weddings is frowned upon, as illustrated by the following::

A modern Orthodox Jewish couple, preparing for a religious wedding meets with their rabbi
for counseling. The rabbi asks if they have any last questions before they leave.

The man asks, "Rabbi, we realize it's tradition for men to dance with men, and women to
dance with women at the reception. But, we would like your permission to dance together,
like the rest of the world."

"Absolutely not," says the rabbi. "It's immodest. Men and women always dance separately."

"So after the ceremony I can't even dance with my own wife?"

"No," answered the rabbi. "It's forbidden."

"Well, okay," says the man, "What about sex? Can we finally have sex?"

"Of course!," replies the rabbi. "Sex is a mitzvah (good deed), a good thing within marriage, to
have children!"

"What about different positions?" asks the man.

"No problem," says the rabbi. "It's a mitzvah!"

"Woman on top?" the man asks.

"Sure," says the rabbi. "Go for it! It's a mitzvah!"

"On the kitchen table?"

"Yes, yes! A mitzvah!"

"Can we do it on rubber sheets with a bottle of hot oil, a couple of vibrators, a leather harness, a bucket of honey and a porno video?"

"You may indeed. It's all a mitzvah!"

"Can we do it standing up?"

"No!!!" says the rabbi."

"Why not?" asks the man.

"Could lead to dancing."

Give me Forever( I Do) by James Ingram

Won't you give me forever to show
all of the love I have here for you.
And if you give me my reason for living
to love you, I love you, I do.

With this ring, I'm bound.
And I'll promise that I'll never let you down.
To family and friends and the Lord up above,

I will swear I'll be true to you,
to give you my love.

I think I've discovered the secret of life - you just hang around until you get used to it.  ~Charles Schulz

lyrics is killing me,
let me share to you one of my fav song,

Because of you
By
Keith Martin
.
...oh yah, oh yah...
If ever you wondered if you touched my soul yes you do
Since I met you I'm not the same
You bring life to everything I do
Just the way you say hello
With one touch I can't let go
Never thought I'd fall in love with you...

Chorus:
Because of you, my life has changed, thank you for the love and joy you bring
Because of you, I feel no shame, I'll tell the world it's because of you

Verse 2:
Sometimes I get lonely and all I gotta do is think of you
You captured something inside of me
You make all of my dreams come true
It's not enough that you love me for me
You reached inside and touched me eternally
I love you best explains how I feel for you...

Chorus:
Because of you, my life has changed, thank you for the love and the joy you bring
Because of you, I feel no shame, I'll tell the world it's because of you

Bridge:
The magic in your eyes
True love I can't deny
When you hold me I just lose control
I want you to know that I'm never letting go
You mean so much to me I want the world to see,
It's because of you

Chorus:
Because of you, my life has changed, thank you for the love and the joy you bring
Because of you, I feel no shame, I'll tell the world it's because of you
My life has changed thank you for the love and the joy you bring
Because of you, I feel no shame, I'll tell the world it's because of you...

Mis-Cat said "Never Tear Us Apart" INXS ...

Don't ask me
What you know is true
Don't have to tell you
I love your precious heart
I..........I was standing
You were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never tear us apart
We could live for a thousand years
But if I hurt you
I'd make wine from your tears
I told you
That we could fly
Cause we all have wings
But some of us don't know why
I..........I was standing
You were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never tear us apart
I don't ask me
I was standing
You know it's true
You were there
Worlds collided
Two worlds collided
We're shining through
And they could never tear us apart
You don't ask me
You were standing
You know it's true
I was there
Worlds collided
Two worlds collided
We're shining through
And they could never tear us apart

"Your born, You Live, You Die, given this premise, one can conclude since we have no control over when we are born and when we die, the only thing that matters to us should be how we live, simple really?" Mis-Cat to her philosophy Lecturer.

Pajju said Close To You ...

She was a Jezebel
This burstin' queen
Livin' her life
Like a bad sweet dream
Tellin' me lies
When the truth was clear
I think she knew
What I wanted to hear
Spinnin' around
Like a wheel on fire
Walkin' the tightrope
On love's highwire
A fatal attraction
Is where I'm at
There's no escapin' me
chorus:
I just wanna be close to you
And do all the things you want me to
I just wanna be close to you
And show you the way I feel
I feel love
When I'm lyin' in the midnight hour
Somethin' deep inside of me
Wants to love you endlessly
When we touch
Girl, you don't know
How it makes me feel
I just can't believe it's real
I can't believe it's real!
chorus
I feel love
Everytime your body's close to mine
Lovin' you's just like a dream
Love is never what it seems
When we touch
And you're holdin' me the way you feel
I just can't believe it's real
I can't believe it's real
She was a Jezebel
This burstin' queen
Livin' her life like a bad sweet dream
Tellin' me lies when the truth was clear
I think she knew what I needed to hear
Spinnin' around
Like a wheel on fire
Walkin' the tightrope
On love's highwire
A fatal attraction is where I'm at
There's no escapin' me
chorus
I wanna be close to you!
And do all the things you want me to
I just wanna be close to you
And show you the way I feel

Inseparable, That's how we'll always be
Inseparable, Just you and me
It's so wonderful to know you'll always be around me

Incredible, What you are to me
Incredible, You bring out the woman in me
With your style of love
Inseparable, Yes we are

Well like a flower to a tree
Like words to a melody of love
There's no way we could break up
No words that can make us
Blow our thing. We're just

Inseparable, That's how it is
Inseparable, For the rest of our years
It's so wonderful to know you'll always be around.

http://www.youtube.c...

Sugarland - Just Might (Make Me Believe) Lyrics

I got miles of trouble spreadin' far and wide
Bill on the table gettin' higher and higher
They just keep on comin', theres no end in sight
I'm just holding on tight...
I've got someone who loves me more then words can say
And I'm thankful for that each and every day
And if I count all my blessings, I get a smile on my face
Still hard to find faith..

Chorus:
But if you look in my eyes
And tell me we'll be alright
If you promise never to leave You just might make me believe

Its just day to day tryin' to make ends meet
What id give for an address on easy street
I need a deep margarita to help me unwind
Leave my troubles behind...

Chorus:
But if you look in my eyes
And tell me we'll be alright
If you promise never to leave You just might make me believe

I used to believe in use
When times got tough
Lately I'm afraid that even love is not enough

Chorus:
But if you can look in my eyes
And tell me we'll be alright
If you promise never to leave you just might make
Oh, you just might make me
You just might make me believe



 

jauntie's picture

jauntie said This is probably too much of an 'oldie' for a wedding song ...

these days, but for what it's worth my Father sang this to my Mother on their wedding day. It was recorded in the 1950s by Mario Lanza. Makes me weep whenever I hear it :(

It's just called: BECAUSE

Because, you come to me,
With naught save love,
And hold my hand and lift mine eyes above,
A wider world of hope and joy I see,
Because you come to me!

Because you speak to me in accent sweet,
I find the roses waking 'round my feet,
And I am led through tears and joy to thee,
Because you speak to me!

Because God made thee mine,
I’ll cherish thee,
Through light and darkness through all time to be,
And pray His love may make our love divine,
Because God made thee mine

" The Gift" by Jim Brickman

winter snow is falling down
children laughing all around
lights are turning on
like a fairy tale come true

sitting by the fire we made
you're the answer when i prayed
i would find someone
and baby i found you

all i want is to hold you forever
all i need is you more every day
you saved my heart
from being broken apart
you gave your love away
and i'm thankful every day
for the gift

watching as you softly sleep
what i'd give if i could keep
just this moment
if only time stood still

but the colors fade away
and the years will make us grey
but baby in my eyes
you'll still be beautiful

all i want is to hold you forever
all i need is you more every day
you saved my heart
from being broken apart
you gave your love away
and i'm thankful every day
for the gift

(instrumental)

all i want is to hold you forever
all i need is you more every day
you saved my heart
from being broken apart
you gave your love away
i can't find the words to say
that i'm thankful every day
for the gift

hawker said The One who Holds My ...

The One who Holds My Heart
by Luther Vandross

I thought that some time alone, was what we really needed.
You said this time would hurt more than it helps, but I couldnt see it.
I thought it was the end of a beautiful story.
And so I left the one I love, at home to be alone, Ooo Ohh

And I Tried and find out this one thing is true that im nothing without you,
I know better now and I've had a change of heart.

Chorus:
I'd Rather had bad times with you, then good times with someone else.
I'd rather beside you in a storm, then safe and warm by myself
I'd rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart.
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart, oOooO yeh.

And then I met someone and thought that she could replace you.
We got along just fine, but wasted time because she was not you.
We had alot of fun, though we knew we were faking
love was not impressed with our connection built on lies, on lies.

So Im here cause i found this one thing is true, that im nothing without you,
I know better now and I've had a change of heart.

Chorus:

I'd Rather had bad times with you, then goodtimes with someone else.
I'd rather beside you in a storm, then safe and warm by myself,
I'd rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart.
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart, who holds my heart.

I cant blame you if you turn away from me, Like I've done you
I can only prove the things I've say with time, please be mine!

Chorus 2x

Id Rather had bad times with you, then goodtimes with someone else.
Id rather beside you in a storm, then safe and warm by myself
Id rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart.
id rather have the one who holds my heart.

Id Rather have the one who holds my heart.
Id Rather have the one who holds my heart....
WhoOo holds My HEART.

The Greatest Gift of All
by Michelle Wright & Jim Brickman

It's not the flowers, wrapped in fancy paper
It's not the ring, I wear around my finger
There's nothing in all the world I need
When I have you here beside me, here beside me

So you could give me wings to fly
And catch me if I fall
Or pull the stars down from the sky
So I could wish on them all
But I couldn't ask for more
'Cause your love is the greatest gift of all

In your arms, I found a strength inside me
And in your eyes, there's a light to guide me
I would be lost without you
And all that my heart could ever want has come true

So you could give me wings to fly
And catch me if I fall
Or pull the stars down from the sky
SoI could wish on them all
But I couldn't ask for more
'Cause your love is the greatest gift of all

You could offer me the sun, the moon
And I would still believe
You gave me everything
When you gave your heart to me

But I couldn't ask for more
'Cause your love is the greatest gift of all

You could give me wings to fly
And catch me if I fall
Or pull the stars down from the sky
So I could wish on them all
But I couldn't ask for more
'Cause your love is the greatest gift of all
Your love is the greatest gift of all
Greatest gift of all

Annie's Song by John Denver:

You fill up my senses,
Like a night in the forest,
Like the mountains in spring time,
Like a walk in the rain.
Like the storm in the desert,
Like a sleepy blue ocean,
You fill up my senses,
Come fill me again.....

Come let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again

tatess said last time i heard part of this song was last night ...

I will be here by Gary Valenciano

Tomorrow morning when you wake up
And the sun does not appear
Ah ha-a-ah I, I will be here
If in the dark we lose sight of love
Hold my hand and have no fear
'Cause ah ha-a-ah I, I will be here

Chorus 1:
I will be here
When you feel like being quiet
When you need to speak your mind
I will listen
And I will be here
When the laughter turns to crying
Through the winning, losing and trying
We'll be together
'Cause I will be here

Tomorrow morning if you wake up
And the future is unclear
Ah ha-a-ah I, I'll be here
As sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
So ah ha-a-ah I, I will be here

Chorus 2:
I will be here
You can cry on my shoulder
When the mirror tells us we're older
I will hold you
And I will be here
To watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here

Bridge:
I will be true to the promise I have made
To you and to the one who gave you to me
Ooh ooh ooh
Ah ha-a-ah I, I will be here

Coda:
And just as sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
'Coz ah ha-a-ah I,

Great for the a wedding song

Because We are In Love by Carpenters

Children
It was more fun to be children
We just took life as it happened
Run thru the days
Don't look behind
Over wink of an eye and it's over
What a surprise to discover
We were people ourselves
What kind of people did we want to be
No answer ever come to me.

I didn't sleep at all last night
Mom, I've come to you like yesterday
About today
Hon, come and sit by my side
Listen to me
Words come so hard
But what my hear says
I will give you.

Because you are in love
Your eyes begin to open
As is you had awoken from a sleep
Because you are in love
You use imagination
And lose you concentration
When someone drops his name
You're back in his arms as always
Your day - dreams work out that way
It's all just a trick you mind plays
The more love grows
The more it stays the same

(Same little girl who's frightened)
But I love him so
(Same little girl who's sure)
That she loves him so
(Sees with a woman's vision knows what a woman knows)

Because we are in love
We've reach for our tomorrow's
And know we won't be lonely
In laughter and in sorrows
Where love abides
There is the place we'll keep our home forever
You and I
Because we are in love.
Where love abides
There is the place we'll keep our home forever
You and I
Because we are in love.

Oryx said Oryx's Fav Wedding Song ...

UP THE JUNCTION -SQUEEZE

I never thought it would happen
With me and the girl from clapham
Out on a windy common
That night I aint forgotten
When she dealt out the rations
With some or other passions
I said you are a lady
Perhaps she said I may be
We moved into a basement
With thoughts of our engagement
We stayed in by the telly
Although the room was smelly
We spent our time just kissing
The railway arms were missing
But love had got us hooked up
And all our time it took up

I got a job with stanley
He said Id come in handy
And started me on monday
So I had a bath on sunday
I worked eleven hours
And bought the girl some flowers
She said shed seen a doctor
And nothing now could stop her

I worked all through the winter
The weather brass and bitter
I put away a tenner
Each week to make her better
And when the time was ready
We had to sell the telly
Late evenings by the fire
With little kicks inside her

This morning at 4:50
I took her rather nifty
Down to an incubator
Where thirty minutes later
She gave birth to a daughter
Within a year a walker
She looked just like her mother
If there could be another

And now shes two years older
Her mothers with a soldier
She left me when my drinking
Became a proper stinging
The devil came and took me
From bar to street to bookie
No more nights by the telly
No more nights nappies smelling

Alone here in the kitchen
I feel theres something missing
Id beg for some forgiveness
But beggings not my business
And she wont write a letter
Although I always tell her
And so its my assumption
Im really up the junction
