Hey guys! Are you getting married this year? You may have some questions or need some ideas for a great first dance wedding song. Depending on your style, there are many songs for you to choose from. You may decide on a classic slow ballad, moderate or upbeat tune to use as a first dance song as husband and wife.
The choice of your first dance may be based on a song that was “your” song from a previous summer per say. That song may bring up a special feeling and resonate with you on a deeper level which makes it an obvious go to choice. A song that holds a personal sentimental value to you and your fiancé is an excellent choice.

This list includes many popular songs that are perfect (Ed Sheeran no pun intended) for your wedding reception. If you are at a toss up with deciding on a specific song, you may still play the other selection as a couples dance so it will still be played at some point during your reception.
Your personality may be out of the box a bit and you decide you would like to have a first dance that is not your typical slow dance. In this case, you may want to use an updeat song. A few you may want to consider using are “Crazy in Love” by Beyoncé and Jay-Z, “Him and I” by G Eazy and Halsey or “I Need Your Love” by Shaggy. A great idea is to practice a specific dance routine for your guests to enjoy at your reception. Many dance studios in the area may be able to help you prepare a routine. You may wish to inquire with www.fredastaire.com or www.alluredanceorlando.com to see how they may help you.
You may also consider doing a mashup performance. This is where the song starts out slow and then transitions into a faster more upbeat song. This will surprise your guests and leave them in awe by the end of your performance. Your wedding will be the talk of the town!
Another idea is to have a musician play your first dance acoustically. This can add a bit of flare to your wedding and allow it to stand out from others. Of course, this all depends on your personal taste.
