Top Country Wedding Songs

It’s offically Wedding Season! According to TheKnot.com, a majority of weddings in Amercia happen between May and November.  My family owns a wedding venue in West Tennessee (look it up- Cogan’s Farm- it’s AMAZING!) and I help out as much as I can, so I always have a keen interest in pretty much everything wedding-related.

One of the biggest wedding traditions is the “First Dance”, and picking a song that reflects your relationship is kind of a big deal, right?

TasteofCountry.com just released a list of the Top Country Wedding Dance Songs, so here’s the Top 10, if you’re looking for some wedding dance inspo.

My husband and I said “I Do” sixteen years ago, and our first dance song was “Memory in the Making” by John Kilzer.

So, yeah, points for being unique!

 

What was your first dance song?

Or if you’re not married just yet, what would it be?
