A report recently released by PRS For Music has revealed that Lonestar’s 1999 song “Amazed” is the most popular choice for newlyweds enjoying their first dance.

First Wedding Dance Song

The music royalties collection service state that the popular ballad is the most chosen song for couples tying the knot to start the entertainment at their wedding receptions closely followed in 2nd place by Aerosmith’s ‘I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing’.

According to the report Shania Twain’s “From this moment” took the bronze medal, followed Bryan Adams “Everything I do” and Take That’s hit “Rule the World”

First Wedding Dance Survey

The survey spoke to 2,000 wedding videographers, asking them the most requested wedding songs at the functions they attended.
Not sure why they asked the videographers, and not a survey of wedding DJ’s – think that may of made more sense.

Leave your comments below to tell us what your most popular wedding song is for a first dance.

With the current technology, you can bet your last pound note that just about everyone at your wedding will turn up with a digital camera. You can also safely bet that at least one of the wedding guests will own a digital camcorder also.

So with the current recession biting some people quite hard, we were wondering if brides and grooms were still finding it in their wedding budget to hire both a professional wedding photographer and a videographer.

I think everyone is fully aware that a pro photographer will take much better shots then your Auntie Maureen and her 5 mega pixal Tesco brand pocket camera, but with so many people, taking so many photos, and being able to share them so freely, is the wedding photographer one of the people feeling the pinch ?

The same goes for the wedding videographer, for a lot of brides and grooms the only good thing about returning from the honeymoon is to relive the wedding day through the hard work of the videographer.

So, today we offer a poll, for the brides and grooms, are you planning to hire a photographer, a video man, both or neither ?

Also, we’d love to hear from the professionals too, are you still getting plenty of work this summer ? Tell us below.
