Serving La Pêche (Wakefield), Ottawa, PEC, Montreal + The Kawarthas
Trying to decide on a song for your first dance can be super challenging. There are so many lists online that include gems like Lee Ann Womack’s 1999 smash hit “I hope you dance”, but if that doesn’t happen to be the vibe you’re after it can be hard to find inspiration!
From one music love to another, here are some of my favourite songs that would be perfect for a first dance!
—
Girl From North Country
Bob Dylan & Johnny Cash
This one is special to me because it’s the song my husband and I danced to at our wedding. It’s just such a beautiful song, and literally no one can beat the musical combo of Dylan/Cash!
Take Me Out
The Wooden Sky
Some other great Wooden Sky options include An Evening Hymn, Oh My God and Angelina.
Fade Into You
Mazzy Star
Mazzy Star is just…the best. If Fade Into You doesn’t do it, you could also consider Into Dust.
The Ghosts on the Shore
Lord Huron
Rillo Talk
Wild Child
Tear
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Chinatown
Shakey Graves
I also think that ‘To Cure What Ails’ would be a fantastic choice!
Bring It On Home To Me
Sam Cooke
Long Time Running
Tragically Hip
Kids on the Run
The Tallest Man on Earth
Little Wing
Jimi Hendrix
All I Can
Sharon Van Etten
All There Is
Gregory Alan Isakov
