We wanted an Italian song, and this one was special to us since it was very popular in Italy during our first year or so together:

Blue - A Chi Mi Dice

The video is kind of morbid though. :unsure::lol:

For our final dance, I chose one of my all time favorites: Sade - By Your Side

So High by John Legend

Baby since the day you came into my life

You made me realize that we were born to fly

You showed me everyday new possibilities

You proved my fantasies of love could really be

Let's go to a place only lovers go

To a spot that we've never known

To the top of a cloud were floatin awayyyyyy...
