We feel a bit mushy after putting this playlist together!

As you know, we have a serious penchant for wedding music, and are often working away on our Spotify page making playlists, and adding new songs to our favourite old ones.

And today, seeing as we were feeling the love, we wanted to share our ultimate picks of first dance song ideas (it did start as a small list, but as always, we just couldn't stop!

Your first dance is one of the most special moments of your wedding, it's iconic, it's romantic, it's fun.

It's a culmination of all your hard work, and your last 'duty' as a couple, before you get to let your hair down and party.

With quirky whistle-along numbers, (Vance Joy, Riptide), slick R'n'B tunes (Boyz II Men, I'll Make Love To You), nostalgic movie ballads (Elvis Costell, She), and acoustic covers (John Mayer, XO); whether you're a little bit country or a lot indie, we reckon this playlist has at least one song that will hit home with you and your other half.
