Tahlia and Ronald Kirk: “Lovin’ You is Fun”
For Tahlia, the choice was easy.
“We danced to Easton Corbin’s ‘Lovin’ You Is Fun’ because it’s all about a healthy drama-free relationship, which fit us perfectly. My favorite part is the chorus: ‘Love don’t have to be a bunch of drama, a bunch of knock-down, drag-outs, cryin’ in the rain…and we’re having such a good time together, and it’s only just begun. My heart’s never smiled so hard. Baby, loving you is fun.’”
Amber and Brandon Cox: “The Best Day”
For this couple, it was the groom who had his heart set on a particular song. George Strait’s “The Best Day” meant a lot for Brandon, who had gone through a serious illness before he meant Amber. He remembered leaving the hospital and hearing “The Best Day” on the radio. When he heard it, it helped him look ahead to brighter days, and when he got better and then eventually met Amber, those brighter days became a reality.
“I had always thought it would be a great first dance song because not every day is your best day, but sometimes the thoughts and hopes of better days can be an encouragement. I always thought it would be a wonderful emotional dance to think about all the struggles that God brought me through to have the best day and embrace my best friend in a new way for the first time, and to think back about those trying times and be thankful for the good times.”
Megan and Spencer Roberts: “God Gave Me You”
Does Spencer love songs that tell a story, and what music tells greater stories than country songs? Megan, who was already a fan of the genre, introduced Spencer to country music and he was hooked. When it was time to choose a song, it was a hard decision. They did their research and eventually chose “God Gave Me You,” by Blake Shelton.
“We went back and forth on lots of songs, even from other bands we had seen live and settled on this song because it tells the story that mirrors traditional marriage vows,”
says Megan, who especially loved the lyrics describing God planning out a relationship to be better than the couple could have ever expected.
“My husband (who does not dance, especially in front of people) and I used a part of that precious wedding budget to take private dance lessons. Our first dance song was Blake Shelton’s “God Gave Me You,” and he even twirled and dipped me. Now we have a plaque in our house that says ‘God Gave Me You.’ I swapped out my heels for boots, and followed up with line dances.”
