I'm making a slide show of myself and my fiancee as we were growing up, but I can't find a song to go with the pictures of me. Anyone have any suggestions?

just look for a song that you both like.
maybe there is a song you and your fiancee danced to.

Joe Cocker's rendition of "I Get By With a Little Help from My Friends" The song they used on the Wonder Years

Or maybe one of these:
100 Years by Five For Fighting
Then They Do by Trace Adkins
You Are So Beautiful by Joe Cocker
What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong
This is Our Life by Mary Beth Maziarz
Time of Your Life by GreenDay
Thank You by Dido
These Are The Days by Natalie Merchant
Forever Young by Rod Stewart
Let Them Be Little by Billy Dean
My Wish by Rascal Flatts
Sunrise, Sunset by Louis Armstrong
Thanks for the Memories by Frank Sinatra
Then They Do by Trace Adkins
Growin' Up by Bruce Springsteen
We Have All The Time in the World by Louis Armstrong
We're Going To Be Friends by White Stripes
I Will Remember You by Sarah McLachlan
Cats In the Cradle by Jim Croce
In My Life by Lennon/McCartney
These Are The Days by Ten Thousand Maniacs
You've Got a Friend by James Taylor

I also found this on a post (someone doing like you are):
My wife and I did a slideshow for our wedding reception. We each had a theme song for the montage of baby and kid pics. She used Somewhere Over The Rainbow by Israel Kamakawiwo Ole'. This version is sort of a medley that includes 'What a Wonderful World' and 'Wish Upon a Star.' It floats in the background with strummy guitar and the more familiar parts jump out a bit to give a warm nostalgic feeling of childhood. I used Rusted Root's Send My On My Way. Most of the lyrics are difficult to understand, so people can concentrate on the pictures. And, although it mostly sits pleasantlly in the background, the man line -- Send me on my way -- fits pretty well with the sense that the first year is the start of a journey for your friend's kid.


Also, don't forget to throw in there songs that are memorable to each of you. Maybe there is a song you remember or your fiancee remembers marking a certain spot in your/his life. Or a song that is special to the both of you. How many songs you need really depends on the length. However if this is something you plan on making your wedding guests watch, try to keep it to no more than 5-10 minutes (2-3 songs worth). You can also edit songs to be shorter and make a mix to get more songs in.

If you don't know any of these songs you can go to a music website like iTunes or MSN music and listen to a 30 second sample.

Congratulations and Good Luck!
