Please help I am in need of ideas for Wedding Songs!

I really need to narrow down to about 10 or so for the dj to spin , nothing too racy as all walks of life will be there , also I need one for the mother/son dance. 3 weeks away!

IMO 10 Prince songs is WAY too many because the non-Prince fans will get tired of it in a hurry.

I think it's funny that people always suggest "Adore" for weddings. I know it's a great love song but won't the line "I ain't fucking just for kicks" offend some? big grin

I believe that John F. Kennedy, Jr. and Carolyn Bessette (R.I.P.) played "Adore" and "Forever In My Life" at their wedding.

I completely agree. But at my wedding, people are gonna hear WAY more than 10 Prince songs, and there's nothing they can do about it. It's MY wedding!!!!!

wink (I wink, but I am serious!)
let me come over it's a beautiful day to play with you in the dark

Our wedding song was “Forever In My Life” and I danced with my Mom to “Most Beautiful Girl In the World”…. not a dry eye in the house.

I assume you are kidding, right? As the Prince album taught us what the lyric book says and what the lyric is are often completely different things. It is clearly "I ain't fucking..."

I'm not sure that a song where he talks about other lovers quite as frequently as he does in this song makes it the ultimate wedding song.

That's what I thought.thumbs up!

I know he has changed it when he sings it live. I think he changed it to "I don't do nothing just for kicks.'

My wife walked in to "Gamillah" which we also used on our wedding video for background music to a picture slide show of the bride & groom before the ceremony began

I got married last year and went through the same thing.

In the end, I cut back on the P and it was better.

I had various background music before the wedding, which included Alexa De Paris and Love Thy Will be Done.

For the ceremony, I had no Prince. For the signing of the books I had a looped 8 min version of Arboretum.

For the meal I had incidental tracks from Karmasutra, Xpectation and NEWS.

For the first dance with my wife, we had She Gave Her Angels, then followed by Head, the remix. It went down a storm!

heybaby

this is for the lover in you-Shalamar


It’s got to be real
Girl, I could write a book on how you’re makin’ me feel
I know I’ll never find
Another who could match the lovin’ you’ve givin’ to me

So this is for the lover in you
This ring means I’ll always be true
This is how we’ll start love anew
This time it’s gonna last forever

I trust you, yes, I do
And girl, you’re not the kind a guy could easily charm
‘Cause the meaning of love
Is always shown to me when you are wrapped in my arms

So this is for the lover in you
This ring means I’ll always be true
This is how we’ll start love anew
This time it’s gonna last forever (I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna give you up)

This is for the lover in you (I love you , baby)
This ring (Ooh)
This is (For the lover in you, girl)
This time it’s gonna last forever

I could say I never met a girl, no, no
Who satisfied my mental and my physical thing
When I lay me down to sleep
I’m rest assured with the thought that you are right next to me, my baby

This is for the lover in you (Take this ring)
This ring (It means I’ll always be true)
This is (How we’ll start love anew)
This time it’s gonna last forever

This is for the lover in you (Take this ring)
This ring (Oh...oh...)
This is (Sweet baby)
This time we’re gonna be together

Oh...
So much love between us
I’ll be the one to come runnin’ {Be the one to come runnin’}
Oh, home to you {Home to you}
You give me sweet love
With a woman like you, I don’t need to play around
Oh, you’re more than just one woman
You’re blowin’ my mind with the love that you’re givin’
That’s what you hear me say
Girl, every day

It’s for the lover in you, baby
With this ring I’ll show you that there ain’t no maybes
It’s for the lover in you, baby
And it’s this time we’re gonna last forever

It’s for the lover in you, baby
With this ring I’ll show you that there ain’t no maybes
It’s for the lover in you, baby
And it’s this time we’re gonna be together

It’s for the lover in you, baby
With this ring I’ll show you that there ain’t no maybes
It’s for the lover in you, baby
And it’s this time
