Your Last First Dance - NJ/NY Wedding Planner



The first dance at your wedding reception is an important part of the wedding day ceremony—it marks the couple’s first dance as newlyweds and celebrates the new life you will be starting together. Many couples tend to stick with a traditional, romantic song that musically expresses their love for each other. When choosing the right song for this magical moment, consider the following suggestions:

• Look at a list of popular wedding songs with your spouse-to-be to get some ideas. There are tons, so you should be able to find one that matches your taste.
• Pick a song that suits the both of you. Make sure it’s one that reminds you of each other and fits in with your personalities. If you have a song that is special to you, use that. Think of songs you used to listen to together early in your relationship, or a song that was playing when you first met.
• Pick a song with significant lyrical meaning. A lot of people don’t realize what the lyrics of songs actually mean and end up picking inappropriate ones without realizing it. Thinly veiled sexual innuendos and ironic love themes rather than romantic ones are mistakes most people make, so take some time to analyze the lyrics.

Some couples have been straying from the traditional, slow first dance—especially with reality TV shows, like TLC’s Rock the Reception, ever-present in our society. During these songs, the couple wows the guests with fast-paced dance songs to really get the party started. If you and your spouse-to-be want to add a flavor of flare to your wedding, consider choosing a non-traditional song. Some suggestions are “Thriller”, “U Can’t Touch This”, “Push It”, and “I Wanna Dance With Somebody”. Just remember to choose a song you love, one that reflects your personality as a couple, and most importantly one that allows you to let loose and have fun!

For the perfect dance to go with the song you decide upon, you can always enlist in dance lessons. Here is a website where you can look up lessons in your area:
