I need some suggestions for the Bride/Groom "first dance." In talking with the bride she has no idea of what song they would like. (This is a young couple in perhaps their early 20s).
Also, I need an mp3 of O. C. Smith's version of "you're My First, My Last, My Everything." I found Barry White's version on iTunes but not O. C. Smith. I'm willing to pay for the single but can't find it except in an album. Thanks, DVJ

Donny, most of thoses are not Y2K compliant. Would there be any recent stuff that would not be in the key of hip hop, rap, etc? But if the newbe-weds are in their 20's, maybe thats what it will have to be. Gotta do what it takes to make the night a success.

No doubt about it DVJ, Donny and Jerry have come up with great song list suggestions.
For what its worth, I asked my daughter (the one who is in her 20's) and she came up with a song for newly wed's 1st dance together as husband and wife, regardless of their actual music style preferences happen to be. That song is "Forever and For Always", Shanai Twain.
If I had asked my older daughter, she would have named many of the songs on the Donny/Jerry lists.
