Wedding Music (sing a song, singer, dance, bon jovi, the roots)

takamineg240 · 03-08-2007, 06:30 PM

I was hoping that someone here could give me some suggestions. I am a guitarist\pianist\singer, and am getting married in a few months. My fiancee has requested that I perform a song at the reception. No pressure! LOL. Anyway, I am having trouble choosing a song. I despise the typical "Love" songs. Way too blatant and over used at weddings. I am looking for something more along the lines of bands like: Dashboard Confessional, Copeland, Brandtson, Weezer. Not specifically those bands, but that is more my style. Anyone have suggestions?

I'm don't really know the bands you mentioned but I got married to Bon Jovi's "Thank you for loving me". Not one of the traditional wedding songs but still nice and soppy! We had our first dance to Meatloaf "Heaven can wait". Sorry if neither of those are to your taste!
