Finding Your First Dance

*** This week we give you all of our best ideas for finding your First Dance ->


This is one of our favourite moments of the entire day. Outside of the ceremony your first dance is easily the most memorable part of your wedding day, giving your guests a glimpse of your love together on full courageous display. Yes, it can be intimidating, but your first dance is honestly worth it. Think of the photos!! What makes the moment so much easier is finding a song that makes you and your fiance feel truly comfortable in your big fearless moment. Here are a few ideas that might help make your search just a little bit easier: 1) Dig into those old CDs and playlists from days gone by. 2) Think of the year you met and look up songs released on the radio at that time. 3) The emotion of the songs matters most, don't worry if every word makes sense. 4) Don't worry if your song choice is "too obvious" great songs are often popular for a reason. 5) If the tempo isn't quite right, remember that your band can slow it down for you. 6) Sometimes the perfect song for you might be fast, loud or funny. We say go for it! 7) Ultimately the only thing that matters is that the song means something to you both. Without further delay, it is time for us to list some of our favourites we have had the proud pleasure of performing over the years. Feel free to slow dance at home if you feel so inspired!
