Obviously, I'm not quite there yet, but I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought about what would be the song for my first dance. We all would be!

For some, it's kind of hard to hear an uber-romantic song and not instantly hear wedding bells in your future, and that's okay!

After looking at the list I have in the notes section on my phone (don't lie, I know you have one too) as well as my current playlist, I chose my top 25 favorite love songs that would be perfect for any upcoming nuptials!

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun.
