What do you think of these wedding songs?

My husband and I are having our wedding next year. We planned our wedding for our anniversary in 2008 but we found out that April that I was pregnant with our first child. I didn't want to have a belly in my wedding photos so we postponed the wedding but went ahead and got married at the courthouse. A year later, here we are planning our wedding - finally - for 2011. After a grueling time searching through music, asking family & friends for ideas and troubleshooting with my husband over songs we both associate with eachother we narrowed it down to a list of 10 songs. 5 potential walking-down-the-isle songs and 5 potential first dance songs. Here are my favorite two: "At Last" by Etta James (walking down the isle) "You & Me" by Lifehouse (first dance) I wanted for one of the songs to be sung by a woman and for the other to be sung by a man. Also, both songs are songs my husband also likes because it's not just about me. It's his wedding too. What do you think of these wedding songs? Please let me know. I'm open to suggestions as well just be sure not to mention songs that are commonly played at weddings please.

they're werid i love akon-dont matter try that one
why not update it a bit and use the version of "at last" by norah jones and have a listen to "It's been a long time coming" by oliver james for your first dance.
i think that "you and me" would be a great first dance song. and i think that what you walk down the isle to should be an insrumental version of the song you decide to go with.. if you choose "at last" (which i love btw), the O'neile (sp?) Brothers have an amazing instrumental version of that song. they have a lot of good songs like that.. look through those and find one that speaks to you. I am getting married in 18 days and am walking down the isle to their instrumental version of "unchained melody". just find something that moves you and the rest will be cake. BD
I love the song "At Last" it is timeless, no matter what version you use. Plus, it fits your situation very well, the name says it all lol. I am not a huge fan of the second song, but hey if you love it, way to go.... We are walking down to Christmas Cannon<<<we r having an xmas wedding next year and our 1st dance song is The Gift good luck
The fact that it is not appropriate to have a fake wedding after you are already married aside, these are my personal opinions: "At Last" - overused "You & Me" - not my style However, it is also my opinion that wedding songs should be personal. If the bride and groom love a certain song (or songs), they should use them regardless of what other people think.
Those are great wedding songs. As long as the songs describe both of you! http://www.theengagementclub.com/ should have some helpful advice on how to pick a wedding song
