wedding song

I am also looking for a genuine tear jerker wedding song. i am getting married in april and want a really good song but everything I listen to seems so original or blah..any suggestions\/

oooh... 'You Make Me Feel Brand New', either by The Stylistics or Simply Red. or 'Say It', by Voices of Theory. 'Spend My Life with You', by Eric Benet. are you after an oldie?

not a huge oldies fan.............but 'spend my life with you' sounds interesting... thanx!

another nice oldie would be we've only just belong by the carpenter's it was a fave in the 70's

Van Morrison - Have I told you lately that I Love You
Chris De Burgh - The way you look tonight

another
Kenny Wayne Shepperd - I found Love

S.E.X. by Lyfe Jennings
or
One Of Those Love Songs by Xscape

oh, "The beauty of Who y ou Are" by marc broussard thats a tear jerker,

Love you madly - cake, thats fun, more up beat kinda for during the reception

Save the Last dance for me - Micheal Buble, honestly the best song to end the night on, so cute

When i fall in love, Chris BOtti, its jazz but is swear that song makes your spine tingle

these are all more contemporary songs, and for an old school one, you can't go wrong with Frank Sinatra

chase77 could not find say it by voices of theory...sorry did not really like spend my life with you...

blah 2006 looking up yours now... I think I want a tear jerker.... call me sappy... any other ideas? by the way love the chris botti instrumnetal one.. but feel i need words for our dance. great ideas though!

Ok the way the nitty gritty dirt band starts off with broken road is the type I am looking for.... if that helps anyone with suggestions.

while we are on weddings-- soemthing for mom and dad? keeping in mind dad is a huge beach boys fan!

hey, no need to be sorry... if it's not your taste then it's not your taste............
but if that's the case then don't bother looking for Say it.
I'll let you know if i've got something a little more along the lines of Broken Road- (beautiful song by the way).......

Well, I'm not sure what genre of music you like. But I'll name a few songs just to give you some ideas. Let us know what you decide (if you haven't already chosen one that is.)

I'll post each one in a different post with the lyrics.

I Cross My Heart by George Strait

Our love is unconditional, we knew it from the start.
I see it in your eyes, you can feel it from my heart.
From here on after let's stay the way we are right now,
And share all the love and laughter
That a lifetime will allow.

I cross my heart and promise to
Give all I've got to give to make all your dreams come true.
In all the world you'll never find a love as true as mine.

You will always be the miracle that makes my life complete,
And as long as there's a breath in me, I'll make yours just as sweet.
As we look into the future, it's as far as we can see,
So let's make each tomorrow be the best that it can be.

I cross my heart and promise to
Give all I've got to give to make all your dreams come true.
In all the world you'll never find a love as true as mine.

And if along the way we find a day it starts to storm,
You've got the promise of my love to keep you warm.
In all the world you'll never find a love as true as mine,
A love as true as mine.

Keeper of The Stars by Tracy Bird

It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew
Now I just can't believe you're in my life
Heaven's smilin' down on me
As I look at you tonight

I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin'
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I've got all I'll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars

Soft moonlight on your face oh how you shine
It takes my breath away
Just to look into your eyes
I know I don't deserve a treasure like you
There really are no words
To show my gratitude

So I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin'
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I've got all I'll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars

It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew

You're the Inspiration by Chicago

You know our love was meant to be
The kind of love that lasts forever
And I need you here with me
From tonight until the end of time

You should know, everywhere I go
You're always on my mind,
in my heart In my soul

You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more than I need you

And I know, yes I know that it's plain to see
We're so in love when we're together
And I know that I need you here with me
From tonight until the end of time

You should know, everywhere I go
You're always on my mind,
in my heart In my soul

You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more than I need you

MICHAEL PETERSON | From Here To Eternity Lyrics

I did everything I could
To get you here tonight
Without telling you why
Now girl if you only would
Just hold out you're hand
And just close you're eyes
I've been dying to ask you
One burning question
Will you be mine

From here to eternity
I'm asking you to
Share you're life with me
Now and forever
I guarantee
That I'll always stay by you're side
I promise my love to you
I'm willing and able
And ready too
Whatever you need
I am here for you
And I'll always be
From here to eternity

Well I saved a year for this ring
And I can't wait to see
How it looks on you're hand
Well I'll give you everything
That one woman needs
From a one woman man
I'll be strong
I'll be tender
A man of my word
And I will be yours

From here to eternity
I'm asking you to
Share you're life with me
Now and forever
I guarantee
That I'll always stay by you're side
I promise my love to you
I'm willing and able
And ready too
Whatever you need
I am here for you
And I'll always be
From here to eternity

Here is a few to start you off. I'll think of more after dinner.

I have a ton of them.

Oh, Faithfully by Journey. That's an old 80's hit. I'm sure you heard it before.

Westlife- I wanna grow old with you
Eol- I fall so deep
Kci and JoJo- All my life ( cheesy i know but i love it )

umm ok this is totally kinda like...i dunno not off topic...but u kno how the have like a father daughter dance at weddings (the bride and her father) well a good song for that is umm Butterfly Kisses...not sure who sings it but its a really good song...

Butterfly Kisses is sung by Bob Carlisle. You can find it on the album:
The Best of Bob Carlisle: Butterfly Kisses & Other Stories
It's a beautiful song; major tear-jerker.
Also, congrats & I wish you the best!

You should try Mark Wills & Leanne Womack " I'll Forever Love You" Now that is a tear jerker... I picked that song for my brother's Wedding and everyone was crying

The best tearjerker song for father/daughter dance has to be "Butterfly Kisses" by Bob Carlisle.

Songs for the happy couple:
I Want to Spend My Lifetime Loving You by Marc Antony Tina Arina
I Finally Found Someone by Barbra Streisand & Bryan Adams
When You Tell Me That You Love me by Julio Iglesias and Dolly Pardon
I Could Not Ask for More by Sarah Evans
From this Moment On by Shania Twain

"Long as I Live" by John Michael Montgomery is another good one.

Amy Grant -

Oh, How The Years Go By

In our times of trouble
We only had ourselves
Nobody else
No one there to save us
We had to save ourselves

And when the storms came through
They found me and you
Back to back together
And when the sun would shine
It was yours and mine
Yours and mine forever

Chorus:
And oh how the years go by
And oh how the love brings tears to my eyes
All through the changes the soul never dies
We fight, we laugh, we cry
As the years go by






There were times we stumbled
They thought they had us down
But we came around
How we rolled and rambled
We got lost and we got found
Now we're back on solid ground

We took everything
All our times would bring
In this world of dangers
'cause when your heart is strong
You know you're not alone
In this world of strangers

(repeat chorus)

And if we lose our way
Any night or day
Well we'll always be
Where we should be
I'm there for you
And i know you're there for me

(repeat chorus twice)

As the years go by

"don't wanna miss a thing" from the best tear jerker!!! Armageddon!!

First of all congrads!!

My suggestions are:

Etta james - At Last

Muse - Unintended

If you want quiet song (no lyrics) Erik Satie - Gym

If you're looking for something classical (I don't think you are, but in any opportunity, I recommend this piece becaue it's just beautiful)

Mozart - Marriage of Figaro (Sung by Maria Callas)
