First Dance Songs

Your wedding song is a BIG deal! Just think: many, many years down the road, you’ll hear the song that you danced to on the radio driving home from work. It’ll bring up sweet memories of the day that you commited to loving your significant other for the rest of your lives surrounded by your family and friends. You’ll want to make sure that this is a song is timeless and accurately portraits the love that you two share.

Jesus and You by Matthew West

Is your faith a big part of your relationship with your significant other? This one expresses the gratefulness of Jesus and your spouse in your life!

He is the one who has given us the perfect example of what it looks like to fully and sacrificially love another.
