The wife and I used Ben Folds - The Luckiest. Granted, this song is used in weddings by people, but I still wouldn't say it's "mainstream" Popular with borderline hip folks in their late 20's and early 30's, but very accessible, and a simply beautiful song. We used it as a first dance and another couple we knew used the instrumental as their walk down the aisle song.

I'd also like to put in a good word for New Order's "Ceremony" as a good song to walk out to once you are married instead of the usual Mendelsohn recessional they always play. We did that and it worked out well.

Some other tracks we used:

My wife walked down the aisle to a track called "Emancipation" by the band Helios instead of the usual "Here comes the bride" business.

We were introduced at our reception and walked in to Smashing Pumpkins "Today"

"Sweet Pea" by Amos Lee is a good father of the bride/bride dance track.

Some others to play at the reception or during dinner:

"Slow Dance" by John Legend
"First Day of My Life" by Bright Eyes
"Such Great Heights" by Iron and Wine (Postal Service cover)


Good luck with everything!

I'm getting married in April, I already have the bright Eyes song on our list, but I will listen to the others! My Mrs also finagled a way to have us and the Wedding party do a choreographed dance...
 
Think we had we've only just begun by the carpenters as my first dance. Everyone and I mean everyone got food poisoning and was shitting and off work for days after wedding number one for me!!

One of the worst days off my life. Certainly in my bottom 10 days ever. Hated every fucking second of it.
 
Gotta be this for walking in.....

I reckon you'll probably tell me to fuk off mate,but hey ho.
2 of these will be played at my funeral,which might be sooner than I reckon,if Ayrshire Blue finds me.
 
We hired the Mersey Beatles for our do, fan-fukin-tastic, they did 'Something' as the first dance, 4k mind but great lads. IMO you MUST have a band at a wedding, DJ's are shyte
