My husband is a huge MMJ fan and I really want to surprise him at our vow renewal by playing a MMJ song for our recessional song (the celebratory song after we say I-do). If anyone can recommend an upbeat love song I would really appreciate it!!

Congrats Jbarry! Knot comes loose, the Live from Las Vegas  version is lovely. The extended slide guitar and piano makes it extra special!! I'm sure tomorrow morning you will get lots more suggestions.

My wedding song was Golden (Okonokos version). We thought it worked well since it was the song that made my wife & I fall in love with MMJ. Several people asked about it after our dance & it actually turned them into fans. :thumbsup:
Homer no function beer well without.

We are going to do Golden as well for the dance.

I always thought that "Sweetheart" would be lovely to dance to!
The time is near, to come forward with whatever killed your spark.

my wife and I's first dance was to "thank you too" which narrowly beat out " where to begin".

I love Golden and we are using that song too, but we need a more upbeat song for after we say I do, not first dance.  :)Thanks for all the help!! Keep it coming!!

"Tonight I Want to Celebrate With You" (live from las Vegas version) is a bit upbeat and would be a nice message to thank family and friends for sharing your special day.
soft and warm all the time make you want it over and over

I'm 21 and don't plan on getting married for at least 10 years, but my wedding song is gonna be Golden

Do covers count? Maybe someone has a good recording of Islands in the Stream...
Here it is, in its entirety, our cover of ELO's Telephone Wire

I'm getting hitched in May, and we're going to have a friend of ours who is an exceptional guitar player and singer, play It Beats 4 U solo/acoustic during the ceremony.

He just has an old soul. Until I met him, I had this image of him as 35-40ish.

Didn't we do shots together last year at the benefit before the Auditorium show ?  I don't wanna be Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor  ;D.  Actually I think Crispy bought.
