Your Alternative First Dance

With more and more alternative couples getting hitched these days (me being one of them), the hunt is always on for the perfect first dance track to reflect the personality of the couple. My fear is that in ten years from now, my fiance and I will be out and our song will come on. And at that special moment when you look at each other with a glance of love, and get up to share that dance again, so does half the room...

So today I have found you some of my favourite tracks to share that special moment without losing your style. And its not just for the rockers out there, I'm sure there will be many of you who will enjoy escaping the songs heard at every special occasion and going into your marriage with something unique.
