My husband and I are both musicians, but strangely enough, we did not have "a song" while we were dating. While we were planning our wedding music, we chose pieces for their uniqueness and artistry, not necessarily for personal meaning. When it came down to choosing our first dance song, we were stumped. One day Corey came home very excited. "I found it!" he said. He then played "The Luckiest" by Ben Folds for me. He said he was listening to it in the car and it described exactly how he felt about me. He told me it made him so emotional that he cried a little. Now, Corey is not at ALL the emotional type, so when he told me that, I started to cry too. I couldn't say no, and "The Luckiest" was our wedding song.
