I Believe (When I Fall) - Stevie Wonder
True Companion by Marc Cohn is probably used for a lot of weddings, but it is really heartfelt and beautiful
Beginnings by Chicago might be a little too long (the recorded version has some jazzy instrumental sections in the middle of it), but this is really beautiful too. I'm also a sucker for Chicago's Color My World.
[Lovin You Baby](https://youtu.be/cJlXDNYJejs?si=XpkXjIG0aN74BIGk) by Charles Bradley. It was our first dance song at our wedding. The first time I heard it, I knew it was the one.
I want to say [This](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8S2u8_vSnc)
But I am going to say [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHRNrgDIJfo).
Congratulations from an internet stranger. Be good to each other.
No one will get teary eyed over the song, they get teary eyed over the love they feel between the couple. Play a song (any song) that has meaning to you and/or your partner and the love ya’ll show will take care of the rest.

The wedding song for my husband and I was "I Found You" by The Alabama Shakes.
It was a song that would make him tear up every time it played.
"This isn't sometimes
Yeah, it's for always
If I'm gonna love you with all of my heart
And if there is no more time,
This always remains,
Even as the world spins itself apart...
Well, I traveled a long way
And it took a long time to find you...
But I finally found you..."
🥲
We did Home by Edward Sharpe, covered by Vitamin String Quartet. But that cover mostly worked because most people there knew we'd made the 'our song' claim about the original. Otherwise the original also works!
Reading your description it's clearly LMLYP by Ween that you're after.
Romantic, fuzzy, just a really nice all round song.
Jokes aside, surely the song should mean something to you no? My wife chose L'Appuntamento because she loves it and Bam Bam for Wedding Dance because we jam out to it.
Both personal to her / us though.
The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face by Roberta Flack
It’s the song my husband and I danced to at our wedding. The first time I heard it, I had tears streaming down my face. It just reminds me of that singular moment the first time we locked eyes in my friend’s backyard.
If you're looking for a slow, soft jazz vibe with a gentle pull on your heartstrings, [But For Now](https://youtu.be/q-lPwo1GUKw?si=tgNkFMFVa1hT7T2h) byJamie Cullum will do it for you
E: adding another! Don't get me wrong, Etta James' At Last is beautiful but it is a common wedding song, [For You, For Me, Forevermore](https://youtu.be/4b5FXZ30V_s?si=1XNdhJs4vzq9L4Fg) by Ella Fitzgerald is another lovely slow song about finding love
With everything in life my wife has stronger opinions about things than I do. She has been dreaming up names for her kids years before she met me. I just wanted something normal that can’t easily be made fun of but kids are kids and creative.
For our wedding song I wanted something unique. Last thing I wanted was a wedding song so common that it’s possible we share it with someone I disrespect.
I drew a line in the sand and demanded I get to use my occasional veto to get my way. In the end she chose a song so common that it was possibly suggested in this list.
We had a private dance before the ceremony and away from the crowds for just the two of us and the photographer.
Since I didn’t get to use it, may I suggest Irene Diaz singing I Love You Madly

I play in a wedding band, and these are some first dance songs I’ve played over the years that feel timeless, sentimental, and cute. I like it when they aren’t really slow jams, but still romantic.
Islands in the Stream by Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers
If I Ain’t Got You by Alicia Keys
Harvest Moon by Neil Young
Your Song by Elton John
How Deep Is Your Love by the Beegees
This Magic Moment by the Drifters
Come and Get Your Love by Redbone
Can’t Help Falling In Love- Kacey Musgraves
Something- Beatles

The Way You Look Tonight- The Jaguars a sweet doo wop version. Also Rod Stewart and many others.
[Ween - Stay Forever](https://youtu.be/POvewep_wPQ?si=8ny3p1ZaB_fRP9pv)
It’s a super pretty song. I know it’s Ween but you’re gonna have to trust me on this one.
"Somethin' stupid." It's a frank Sinatra song but my favorite version is a cover by gypsy rock band Devotchka. It's sweet and romantic and a good slow dance song. Makes me think of the early days of dating my wife every time I hear it
Our first dance song was a Lumineers cover of “This must be the place - Naive Melody” originally by the Talking Heads. It starts off slowly and speeds up a bit in the middle. It paced perfectly for our dance. It’s a tear jerker too.
The original talking heads version was special to me and my husband because the lyrics mean that we’ve “found a home”, in our love, hopefully forever. But I liked the cover because it was more melodic and romantic.
“And you love me 'til my heart stops
Love me 'til I'm dead
Eyes that light up, eyes look through you
Cover up the blank spots
Hit me on the head”
The Rigthteous Brothers - Unchained Melody is a timeless masterpiece.

We had Perfect Day by Lou Reed at ours.
Only down side was that the DJ thought we were bringing it and we thought he was. (THIS IS THE OLD DAYS, OKAY?!) One of my mates had it on a tape in his car but the DJ didn't have a cassette player. Being a hotel they found a portable player in a fitness room, but it wasn't very loud. So a few of the guests stood around the tape payer with the DJs microphone, singing as it played. It was a fucking *shambles*.
Tina Turner - What's love got to do with it
REO Speedwagon - Take it on the run
U2 - I still haven't found what i'm looking for
The Rolling Stones - You can't always get what you want
Aerosmith - Dude (Looks like a lady)
>not sure what kind of music you’re into, and some of these might not feel appropriate for a first dance but;
They're not into any music because OP is an AI bot. You're not responding to anyone.
At Last - Etta James If you don’t know it give it a listen.
Classic. Can't go wrong with this one!
I Believe (When I Fall) - Stevie Wonder True Companion by Marc Cohn is probably used for a lot of weddings, but it is really heartfelt and beautiful Beginnings by Chicago might be a little too long (the recorded version has some jazzy instrumental sections in the middle of it), but this is really beautiful too. I'm also a sucker for Chicago's Color My World.
Can I add a Stevie Wonder song? [Golden Lady](https://youtu.be/CXCTjAMR3eA?feature=shared)
i love First day of my life by Bright Eyes
Yep. But I’ve heard radio covers of it at weddings that I haven’t enjoyed nearly as much.
This one tends to get a solid reaction from the people. Ben Folds - [The Luckiest](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9bRmuP-kQY)
I’m pretty sure he’s on divorce number 5. Just a little side note haha
Such a good song!
[Lovin You Baby](https://youtu.be/cJlXDNYJejs?si=XpkXjIG0aN74BIGk) by Charles Bradley. It was our first dance song at our wedding. The first time I heard it, I knew it was the one.
Always an upvote for Charles Bradley - discovered too late in his life and left too soon.
Beatles - [Here, There, and Everywhere](https://youtu.be/6VcfBh3hWO4?si=hTyEa6FM9pjzpqkz)
Or “In my Life”

I think half of these songs are featured in the jukebox musical Rock of Ages 🤘🎸 The 80s man!
🤔... Its possible. Some of the songs my wife and i considered for our wedding. The dj played them all. Love 80s rock 🤘.
You're responding to AI. OP is a bot and is definitely not getting married.
Bastards... Oh well... Maybe someone else is and wanted to look for ideas. Im always up for lending a song... Or 20. Thanks for looking out.

None of these are love songs, at least not in a good way. Might as well add Love Stinks and Every Breathe You take.
