Choosing a wedding song for your first dance can be tough. You have so many options! Do you go with a traditional song, like Etta James’ “At Last,” or do you opt for a more modern song like Jack Johnson’s “Better Together”?

I think the best first dance songs are personal and full of meaning–your song as a couple, or at least a classic love song you’ve always adored. If you need some inspiration, check out Bridal Guide’s Top 90 Wedding Songs. DiscJockeys also has a great list of Popular Wedding Songs, and WeddingChannel.com has a cool wedding song search tool to help you narrow down your options.

If you are looking for a quirky modern song to add some unique flair to your ceremony, try out these sweet, modern love songs:

• Ingrid Michaelson– “The Way I Am”
• Ben Harper– “Beloved One” or “Forever”
• Dave Matthews Band– “Crush”
• Robin Thicke– “Lost Without You”
• Counting Crows– “Accidentally in Love”
• James Morrison– “You Give Me Something”
