What you’ll find here:

Tons of unique and modern wedding song ideas that aren’t overplayed as well as different versions of the ones that are!

Don’t allow your wedding reception to be a cookie-cutter affair!  Customize your cocktail hour and dinner music!  Dance music should be left up to the DJ as much as possible so he can “read the crowd” and switch it up as needed.  If you want to dictate a lot of the music selections, be sure to hire an ego-free DJ that will work with you to make it uniquely yours! 

I love HER voice!  This song is a refreshing change from the traditional mother-son dance songs that you find on so many cookie-cutter lists.

Eluvium “Radio Ballet”

Can’t get any more beautiful than this!  If you’re looking for unique wedding songs, stay tuned up until the big day.  We post everything from modern first dance songs to father daughter or even brother sister dance songs.   If you have an eclectic taste in music, you’ll be sure to find something here in the days to come.  Or, dig into some of our past posts.  There are almost 400 as of now, and you won’t find most of these songs on the standard web lists.

Many wedding DJs will tell you they’re not cookie-cutter, but they don’t offer you anything unique to suggest that.  Our goal is to provide you with ideas that allow you to step-outside-the-box, without having to work too hard to find them!

I already love Michael Franti’s song “Say Hey”, but he’s impressed me again so much with this song!  I love it when I find a song that can cross over for almost every single wedding dance or tradition!

This Michael Franti song, “Have a little faith”, is perfect for a first dance song, grand entrance song, wedding ceremony recessional song, bridal party dance song, cake cutting song, brother sister dance song, father daughter dance song, mother son dance song, etc.

Enjoy!

A.A. Bondy “Lover’s Waltz”

This first dance song blows me away!  I love it when I find these gems.  Let me know if you like it.  Stay tuned for a ton of unique wedding song ideas for your first dance song.

Chris Cornell “Thank You”

In case you haven’t noticed, the videos I post in here are for the song only.  I pay no attention to the picture.

My husband and I stumbled upon this song while watching an episode of House.  It’s fresh and original, and I think you might like it!  Could use it for a ceremony recessional song, a first dance song, classy grand entrance song, etc.

Let me know what you think!

Eric Bibb “Shine On”

I like the first minute or so of the choreographed wedding dance (right after the traditional slow dance).  I think brides sometimes worry too much about putting together something big and elaborate, when all guests really want to sit through is a minute or two of fun!  Unless you’re a professional dancer, consider throwing just a small piece into the middle of a traditional first dance song.

Your DJ should be able to edit it for you!

We have a great series starting up!  Stay tuned for tons of fun wedding songs and tips!

If your bridal party is the type to dance into the room, this song would be awesome!

Was putting together a list of grand entrance song ideas for one of our brides, and thought I’d share this one!  It’s fun and upbeat!

Rollercoaster of Love by the Red Hot Chili Peppers

This song is gorgeous!  It’s fitting for a ceremony processional song, prelude music, etc.
