"Historically, the first dance is symbolic of the consummation of the wedding and marks the couple's first cooperative engagement and joint endeavor. When the bride accepts her dance with the groom, she accepts him for the rest of her life. The frame and posture of the groom when he proposes the dance to the bride, speaks of the source of strength, love, companionship, and guidance he offers his bride. It is no wonder that the tradition of the first dance has continued through history as one of the most important facets of the wedding day." That is why it is so important to ensure this moment will be memorable and emotionally touching for everyone. Tragically, many couples forget to give this the attention it deserves, low lighting this event that should be a highlight. But, a good plan for this event can save the day.
