Wow, after countless suggestions and what seemed to be a search that would not be resolved we decided on a song to dance to. One of our underlying themes to the wedding (there are several of them) is that all the music will be cover versions of original music. So with that in mind we finally decided on the Madeleine Peyroux verison of Leonard Cohen's "Dance Me to the End of Love". It is a really beautiful song.
What are you guys dancing to?
We haven't made this decision yet, although we've talked about it a bit. The only consensus so far is that it should be something we can Swing to, because thats the dance we're most comfortable with overall. That doesn't narrow it down a whole lot though, because you can swing to a lot of music! It would be helpful if we had anything as clearly 'our song' as something I had sung to her, but I'm not much of a vocalist.

Ok, this is version 2.0.. well ok I have made several, haha, but this is the second one you get to see. I did a lot more thinking, talked about colors with my love and we settled on 3. Deep purples, mocha brown, and a rich yellow. This mixes some ...
You could consider specially made wrist bands. Rather than a small wring on the finger, a band made from say, metal or leather or both. Designed in ways unique and special to the two of you. You could even, if you were both very DIY, delve into me...
My lady and I were thinking a western ranch and spa. The idea would be by doing enough DIY and such we could afford to splurge a bit on a nice stay at a ranch which include meals, etc, activities and also a spa. I first saw the idea, the modern on...
Just a thought, that could potentially save lots of money, and rather easy.
Given the techno age we are in (hooray!) many people, many of your friends and family probably own digital camera's, and will probably bring them to the wedding. An idea ...
