What Do I Pick for My First Dance Song?
How To Pick Your First Dance Song as A Couple:
The first dance should be romantic and all about you as a couple.
Whether it's a song that was playing when you met or one that describes you as a couple completely, it should be one that you will always remember. But maybe you have many, and you only need the one so this might be tricky trying to narrow down. It only needs to be about 2-3 minutes.
If dancing isn't your favorite, we have ways of moving this around so you still get to share that special dance but you aren't in the spotlight for long. Each couple is different.
After talking to many bands and DJs recently, they all had different answers as to the top song they play for that first dance.
From Etta James, Elvis Presley, or The Temptations if you love the classics, or more contemporary would be Ed Sheeran, Adele, or even Aerosmith.
Here are 10 of our favorites (in no order) with clips of lyrics to show why some choose them and find the special.
1. The Way You Look Tonight by Frank Sinatra
"There is nothing for me but to love you/And the way you look tonight."
2. At Last by Etta James
"At last, my love has come along/My lonely days are over, and life is like a song, oh yeah."
3. It's Your Love by Tim McGraw

5. In Case You Didn't Know by Brett Young
