Your Wedding Song… Contemporary Music For Your First Dance

Your wedding reception will be filled with so many special and memorable moments. One of the most meaningful will be your first dance as husband and wife. I’ve seen it so many times before… You’ve just made your grand entrance. Your friends and family are all gathered around the dance floor, cheering and applauding. Your wedding party is right there with you, smiling, laughing and taking in all the positive energy in the room.

A wave of emotions come over you. All the hard work and preparation over the last 12-18 months has led you here, to this moment. It is the start of your wedding reception. Your wedding celebration! 

Suddenly, the music fades and your MC asks all of your guests to step to the perimeter of the dance floor. As the two of you step towards the center of the dance floor, your first dance music begins to play. It is such a personal and special moment and so is the song choice. 

Many couples choose traditional songs and this is perfectly fine. But sadly, many couples choose traditional songs simply because they are not presented with any of the many beautiful, contemporary first dance wedding songs. 

A quick search online will yield many results. Here are a few to get you started. Pull out the laptop, open up youtube, or itunes, and give them a listen. Happy Wedding Planning =)
