I am the biggest sap and love listening to romantic cheesy love songs. So when I have my iTunes going while I'm working at home, my husband has to get away since some major girlie music may end up in the shuffle!!
WARNING!! Get your tissues out! One of my favorite most sentimental parts of all weddings is the father daughter dance. When my friend's sister got married in 2006 they had the most amazing live band for her wedding (Night Shift) everyone was about to sit down and eat dinner, when they began to sing "Time After Time", one of my favorite songs. So I tell my dad, "I love this song!" and he says, "Well let's go dance!" but I say, "No one is out there on the dance floor and everyone is about to eat dinner." and he says, "Who cares!" So we go out there and enjoy my favorite song, then everyone starts to join us on the dance floor. The photographer at the wedding captured us dancing in this photo below and I treasure it! Little did I know that this would be my last father daughter dance since he passed away suddenly in 2007 and I was not able to have our father daughter dance when I finally got married in 2009. So now whenever I go to weddings I love to watch the father daughter dance and if I start to cry, I apologize, it just means so much to me! I was definitly daddy's little girl as you can see in the other picture below of me and my dad when I was about 3 yrs old! So here is list of my favorite cheesy love songs for your wedding day, including my husband and I, 1st dance song- Whatever It Is
