From our friend Sarah Trotter, Planner extraordinaire at Lasting Impressions....

Favorite first dance songs...

Sarah says: "I was talking to one of my brides yesterday and we got talking about first dance songs. I know that when I got married this was an area that I really stressed about. I wanted to pick something perfect.... Not to new, not to overplayed, not to mushy.... I will never know if I picked the perfect one, but I do know that I picked a song that really expressed how I felt about my husband and what really expressed our life together. I really love music (and especially country music) so maybe this is why selecting the song was so hard! I am lucky enough to hear some great songs every week and I am always left thinking..... How does this song express their life together?

Based on what I see a lot and what my personal choices are in music here are some great FIRST DANCE Songs!!"
