But Which is YOUR Wedding Song?

Dan, from Impressions Music in Toronto expressed this best, for all of us. He wrote:

I always tell bride & grooms that the most romantic & memorable song, is one that is choosen from within themselves, not by someone else. When choosing a first dance, it should be a song that has meaning to you. Maybe it was a song you first danced to when you met, or during your first kiss, or while away together on a special vacation, possibly even the song that was playing when the groom proposed.
