50 Classic First Dance Songs for Your Wedding

 

About one week ago, I started a 31 day blogging challenge.  I thought this would be so easy.  I  have been blogging for some time.  I know what to write about.  I know how to write.  I just need to be dedicated enough to do it everyday.  

Well, easier said than done.  In 8 days, I have created 4 blogs.  Ok, I intended to take Sunday off, but the other days were just too full of activities to find the time to create a blog.  Then our leader for the challenge, Lesa, gave us a great idea.  When time is short, use the expertise of someone else to help you out.  

 So today, I am forwarding 50 Classic First Dance Songs.  This is a great collection.  Everyone in every age category should be able to find a song they love listed here.  

Enjoy your time imagining you and your partner dancing to each of these beautiful songs.  And if you don't have time for all of them at the wedding, use the remaining songs to celebrate anniversaries!
