Our wedding was 6 years ago last week and when I revisit the track list from our wedding CD today, there isn't much I would alter. There are a couple songs that are either new or new-to-me since 2005 that would have been nice to include, but that is cheating. We entered the wedding reception to Talking Heads and had our first dance to the Magnetic Fields, neither of which I would change. The mini-suite of tracks 5-8 represent our departure from New York and our cross-country journey to our new home in San Francisco, with a proposal along the way. If pushed, I would probably pull either David Byrne or Shuggie Otis from the bonus tracks, if only merely to streamline the thing a bit.
In the Grooveshark playlist below I was not able to include the Norah Jones track (the Tom Waits original is substituted) or the Shuggie Otis track.
