The First Dance Is The Best Dance

The First Dance Is The Best Dance

The first dance is THE most important song of the night. Next to seeing you kiss at the alter, this is one of the most romantic events of your wedding; your big moment alone on the dance floor. So yes, the song has to be perfect!

When choosing the perfect song think back to experiences you’ve shared as a couple. For some couples, “your song” could be played, but for other couples that do not have one particular song, the decision may not be so easy. Take a stroll down memory lane and remember the movies and TV shows you’ve seen together. Recall concerts of favorite musicians you’ve attended. Remember special moments you’ve shared and the song that played in the background. As newlyweds, this touching first official spin around the dance floor, will create a memory that will last a lifetime. Have fun with it and make sure the song is sentimental to both of you!

Before making your first dance song decision, decide on the tempo you wish to create. You and your future husband have many options; adventurous, entertaining or romantic. If adventurous is the answer, plan on surprising the love of your life. Allow the bride to choose the first dance and the groom to choose the last dance, or vice versa. If entertaining is the answer, take dance lessons together. Choose a song that allows you to show off your dancing skills and add some pizzazz and personality to your first dance! If romantic is the tempo you are searching for, choose a sweet love song. Hold each other tight, sing to each other and tell each other how much you love them during this memorable moment. It all depends on how you, the bride and groom, want your guests to remember your special day. After all, it is your day and your way, so make it something to remember!

Finding that one special song can sometimes be difficult. It’s normal to draw a blank or have “Wedding Song Block.” That’s why Castleton has created a unique wedding song list, a list that can meet every Castleton couple’s desire!
