She sent me a link to this great wedding video which used the very song (instrumental version). Check it out, have a listen to the song and tell me if you fell in love with it like I did.

Wedding of Leeane and Andrew from Real Life Films on Vimeo.

Apart from a fantastically made wedding video, the choice in background music to accompany the moving pictures made all the difference. The song is indeed magical like how my friend described it and I now understand why she loves the song. Good pick, S!

Have any of you used the song in your wedding? Is Moon River one of your wedding song choices? Share your reasons for picking the song. Your thoughts will be useful for the rest of the women who are looking to consider it.

Make sure you get dance choreographed to like this couple here:

What the couple did was they started out with a slow song (a different one) and then broke out into the funny dance ala Uma Thurman and John Travolta. I loved the audience reaction the best though. Everyone was clapping and having a lot of fun cheering the couple along. So cute!

There are other great songs that you can dance to like:

1. The Wedding Thriller Dance
2. Carrie Underwood’s Home Sweet Home
3. Dirty Dancing
4. Someone Like You

“Love of My Life”
words by Darla Day
music by Mark Phillips
duet sung by Darla & Chad Day

I love you, the love of my life
I need you, our love is right
I’ve found the one that my soul loves
No other love means so much

I prayed to my God for a heart to keep
He gave me the one, He knew my needs
Over and over this love is sweet
I recognize the joy that makes our love complete
God gave you to me

You’re the one I prayed for long ago
Fearless trust I never thought I’d know
I’ve found the answer to my dreams
My eyes were opened to love’s mystery

I prayed to my God for a heart to keep
He gave me the one, He knew my needs
Over and over this love is sweet
I recognize the joy that makes our love complete
God gave you to me

The love of my life…

I love you, the love of my life
I need you, our love is right
I’ve found the one that my soul loves
No other heart gives so much
God gave you to me

You’re the one I love
You are the love of my life

I recently discovered how great a singer, Avril Lavigne is. I happen to stumble onto Avril’s wedding photo slideshow accompanied by one of her songs, “Keep Holding On”. This song is amazing. Truly inspiring. Makes me want to get married again so I can dance to this song. Perhaps I’ll do that on our next wedding anniversary.

Lyrics of the song after the jump

You’re not alone
Together we stand
I’ll be by your side
You know I’ll take your hand

When it gets cold
And it feels like the end
There’s no place to go
You know I won’t give in
No I won’t give in

Keep holdin’ on
‘Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
Just, stay strong
‘Cause you know I’m here for you
I’m here for you

There’s nothing you can say (Nothin’ you can say)
Nothing you can do (Nothin’ you can do)
There’s no other way when it comes to the truth

So, keep holding on
‘Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through

So far away
I wish you were here
Before it’s too late
This could all disappear

Before the doors close
And it comes to an end
With you by my side
I will fight and defend
I’ll fight and defend, Yeah yeah

Keep holdin’ on
‘Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
Just, stay strong
‘Cause you know I’m here for you
I’m here for you

There’s nothing you can say
Nothing you can do
There’s no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
‘Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through

Hear me when I say
When I say I believe
Nothing’s gonna change
Nothing’s gonna change destiny

Whatever’s meant to be
Will work out perfectly
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..

La da da da, la da da da da
La da da da da da da da da

Keep holdin’ on
‘Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
Just stay strong
‘Cause you know I’m here for you
I’m here for you

There’s nothing you can say
Nothing you can do
There’s no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
‘Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through

Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
Keep holdin’ on
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh

Keep holdin’ on
There’s nothing you could say
Nohing you could do
There’s no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
‘Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through

I was hopping on my online buddies’ blogs and found this song in Toni’s site. According to Toni, “Someone Like You” is her all-time favourite slow song to dance with a special someone.I listened to the song and it does melt your heart

It’s a good Bridal March song or first dance at your wedding reception

Lyrics after the jump

“Someone Like You”
by Shawn Colvin

I’ve been searching for a long time
For someone exactly like you
I’ve been travelling all around the world
Waiting for you to come through.

Someone like you to make it
All worth while
Someone like you keep
Me satisfied. Someone exactly
Like you.

I’ve been travellin’ a hard road
Lookin’ for someone exactly like you
I’ve been carryin’ my heavy load
Waiting for the light to come
Shining through.

Someone like you to make it
All worth while
Someone like you to keep
Me satisfied. Someone exactly
Like you.

I’ve been doin’ some soul searching
Just to find out where you’re at
I’ve been up and down this highway
In all kinds of foreign lands

Someone like you to make it
All worth while
Someone like you keep
Me satisfied.

I’ve been all around the world
Marching to the beat of a different
Drum.
But my baby I have
Realised
The best is yet to come.

Someone like you to make it
All worth while
Someone like you to keep
Me satisfied. Someone exactly
Like you.
