Sentimental Wedding Moments

► “If I Should Fall Behind”
This beautiful ballad is a tribute to commitment and makes for a unique first dance song.

►  “When You Need Me”
A folky classic that’s a lovely father-daughter dance song moment. Perfect for the dad who will always be there for his little girl.

► “This Life”
A newer addition from Bruce that pairs a good rock beat with sweetly sentimental lyrics. It’s a unique choice for a first dance.  Or, use just the chorus for your recessional song as the perfect kick off to your new life as husband and wife

► “Happy”
A perfect first dance song that unabashedly celebrates the happiness found in true love.

► “I Wanna Be with You”
Cue this chorus to create an awesome, non-traditional processional and rock your way out of your ceremony.

Rock Your Dance Floor Moments

► “Dancing in the Dark”
The ultimate wedding dance floor song. Play this and Mom, Dad, Grandma, Aunt Betty, and all of your friends will be rocking out together.

► “Rosalita”
If you want to bring everyone out on the dance floor, bring out good ol’ Rosie!

► “Glory Days”
Pump this jam and there’s a very good chance you will see your parents and their friends fist pump. Trust us, it’s worth it.

Say Goodnight

► “Born to Run”
A classic Bruce song that transcends generations makes for a quirky and fun choice for a last dance song that will keep everyone jumping until the last note.

► “Thunder Road”
This slightly more mellow rock song has an anthemic, American feel. It's the perfect way to say farewell to your guests.
