Most Popular Wedding Dance Songs 

Choosing a song for that special first dance can be a struggle for any wedding couple. There can be too many options or too many ideas. Should it be fast? Slow? Should it be fun? Serious? Should the dance be specific?

The dance can be whatever you want!  It can be fast or slow.  You can do more than one song and dance style.  Some couples choose to do a mash-up and go crazy.

At Adventures in Dance, we can mash songs up for your big day, but some couples have a special song.  We can also help these couples find the right dance style for their special song. After this year’s hectic wedding season, we have found the most popular first dance songs used in the studio.

The first dance is important to the wedding but not the only dance you have to prepare for.  The brides will also have to choose a song to dance with their fathers as well.  If you and your daddy-dearest don’t already have a song this can also be a tough decision.
