In my opinion, there is no such thing as a wrong song at your wedding reception. The decision is that of the couple...nobody else need like it...or understand why they chose it. They may have chosen it because it was the song playing in the bar when they met, or the song that was #1 the day he asked her to be his girlfriend or just a song they have both loved. The night I met my husband the first thing we did was talk long and hard about "Angry Chair" by Alice in Chains, so it is definitely the song I associate with him. Romantic...no.

Songs have different meanings for different people. I do happen to think Every Breath You Take is a beautiful song. Very beautiful in fact. I have my own meaning for the song...which may or may not be what it is really about (any time I ever heard Sting talk about the song, he did not say it was about stalking, but it might be) but it becomes what it means to you, in my opinion.

At my first wedding, the song we got the mothers up on the dance floor for was "Sporting a Woodie"...maybe not approprite per se, but everybody had fun!
