The days are getting shorter, and boy are they getting colder. But we are here on another Friday to try to warm you from the heart outwards by filling you with the wedding feels.
If you have started your wedding planning, you know there are so many options and ways to personalize your wedding that sometimes its hard to know where to start. And one of the many decisions you need to make is your first dance song. And lucky for you, we dedicate Fridays to your first dance needs by breaking down the best elements of a song to help you find the perfect song for you.
This week we are featuring a song from a duo that we have featured here before. And a country duo that needs no introduction: Faith Hill and Tim McGraw.
I got something I gotta run past you, I just hope I say it right. So I take your hand and ask you, have you made plans for the rest of your life? (0:39)
Proposals can be super stressful. It’s not just buying the ring and bending the knee. There is planning of a location, some sort of surprise, some words to say.. a lot of factors to consider. Proposals can be grand or intimate, but however it happens, it is perfect for you. Hey do you have plans on Friday and for every Friday for the rest of your life? A proposal can be as simple as that, and if its the right person, it’s all you need.
Oh, I’ll be fine. If my gray hair shows I’ll be fine. If my waistline grows I’ll be fine. Even if time takes it’s toll we’ll stay young for the rest of our lives (1:13)
When you met the love of your life maybe you were in high school. Or maybe you were done school and working. Or you may even have met them later in life. Regardless of what stage in your life you were in when you met, the longer you stay together and your relationship evolves, there are bound to be changes. Maybe your hair used to be long and now its short. Maybe it used to be brown and now its gray. Maybe you used to spend a few evenings a week at the gym, and now life gets in the way and you don’t. Any maybe none of those things changed, but you still just got older anyway. Even if the way you look changes, the way that you feel about each other never will. You aren’t together for the long hair and defined shoulders, you are together because of the way you make each other feel.
I don’t really care about those storm clouds brewing, oh, as long as you’re here by my side. Oh we’ll be young when we’re old (2:39)
It doesn’t matter what struggles come your way because you will get through it together. The love you have for each other will help you get through the toughest times, and be there to celebrate the best times. As long as you have each other you can take on the world together and share the tears and the smiles with each other. You bring out the best in each other and you are best self when you’re together. As you grow older and you are no longer newly weds, that doesn’t change, it gets better. Love will keep you young at heart even when you aren’t young in body.
There you have it folks. The powerhouse couple of country music. You can see the love they have for each other shine through in their lyrics and in the music video. What better way to kick start your married life together than being serenaded by all that love and history of their successful careers and marriage.
Hopefully you enjoyed our song selection for this week. Thinking about using this song for your first dance? Let us know in the comments. Thinking of choosing a different song? You can let us know that too and maybe we will feature it on an upcoming week.
Until next time lovelies.
Cheers!
