1-1024x576

 

From the classic and romantic to contemporary and cool, we rounded up the best first-dance songs from our real weddings!

Your first dance as a married couple is a uniquely intimate moment during an otherwise public day. While your friends and family will watch you and your new spouse sway softly, the two of you will be the only ones on the dance floor. Without a doubt it’s one of the most intimate, joyous moments of your wedding day, and the first opportunity you both have to savor your newly-minted status as husband and wife.

For some couples, selecting a meaningful, expressive first dance song is the easiest part of their wedding-planning process. It’s the soundtrack of their relationship, the song playing in the background of their first kiss, or the lyrics that blared at a busy restaurant on their first date. For others, the decision is not so simple. Whether you have opposing musical tastes or just can’t settle on one song that defines you as a couple, we’re here to help.
