    My wife and I danced to "Throw Your Arms Around Me" (Live from the 2000 Indy show we attended)...and it will be 7 years ago next month.

    Surprised no one said Love Boat Captain. Then I'd say Thin Air and Just Breathe...

    Or if you don't like your spouse....Leash and Don't Gimme no Lip

    Definately Just Breathe or LBC!!! If I was the marrying type (which I am NOT) then those two songs would definately be played!!

    But LBC is about Roskilde... :|
    Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...

    ... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.

    i got married in 2007 and had a hard time picking a Pearl Jam song . We went with a Ben Harper song called "Beloved One" Excellent song and very original. Been to lots of weddings and all play the same music.

    People who play Nothing Man at there wedding are idiots. Great Song love it to death but not intended for a wedding.

    Thin Air

    Maybe this is ignorant, but what is Roskilde? I would like to know what LBC is about? I thought it was about love with a beautiful reference to The Beatles.

    I know LBC has a reference to Roskilde but I think as a whole the song is a love song.

    What about Love Reign o'er Me or You Are (two of my favourite songs - might be a bit too hard core for the oldies though)

    I am pretty sure I am going with Parachutes. I always though it would be cool if we were dancing to the song and people dropped down the little Parachute men. Instead of our tables being numbered, each is going to be named after a PJ song with the head table named after the wedding song (parachutes). The light years table is going to be candles for each of our dead family members who couldnt be there. Just a few PJ related ideas. I have.

    I'm getting married in 2012 (before the end of the world hopefully :shock: ) and was thinking of "Just Breathe", but think we'll go with "You Are".

    Hail, hail. -- Hail, hail the lucky ones I refer to those in love yeah!! I've always thought the "are you woman enough to be my man?" lyric is one of the most brilliant lyrics I've ever heard.

    I recently got engaged myself, and the wedding is looking like 2012!!

    I think iv convinced my girlfriend on Just Breahte I just love it, she is not a big PJ fan like me but likes some of there songs! I think she is onboard with it though :D as she loves it too.

    Have to say after listening to Throw your arms around me a lot!!!!!! lately Im starting to consider it too, great song! hmmmmmmmmmmmm :?

    Also at a weding lately and the first song was the Ramones "baby I love you" it was great and went down really well I think!
    Drop the leash, Drop the leash........
