There is no doubt about it;

Between selecting a caterer, attire shopping, and photographer consultations, your first dance is probably the last thing on your mind. Before you get too bogged down with all the big picture ideas, stop and imagine your first dance. Hopefully feelings of happiness and accomplishment com over you. You and your partner have been planning this event for months, maybe even years. Your first dance, and the song you dance to, is a big decision wrapped in a small package. Yes, it is just a song. But for many couples, it is the first dance that allows them to finally be in each others arms and enjoy the day that you will honor for years to come.

Having difficulties choosing a song? Does it cause discord between you and your partner? Here are some suggestions (from real Wausau area couples!):
