There’s no right and wrong when it comes to choosing your wedding first dance song. The dance should, as a rule, accommodate the song you want to dance to. The first dance is the highlight of the whole wedding. It’s also a very personal moment. That’s why choosing the first song is a personal matter. The following are just a few tips to make choosing the song for your wedding first dance quick and easy and, above all, fun.1. A long song can be tiring for both you and your guests. For example, ‘All I Want is You’ by U2 is more than 7 minutes long. There’s no problem dancing to short songs as very few are shorter than 2 minutes. The ideal length for a first dance song is around 3 minutes and there are plenty to choose from.2. Being a popular first dance song does not mean its lyrics are always fitting to the wedding occasion. The majority of songs weren’t written with one’s wedding in mind. For example, ‘Angels’ by Robbie Williams is a favourite first song, but if you read its lyrics you’ll come across a passage, ‘And I feel that love is dead, I’m loving angels instead.’3. Very slow songs are tricky to dance to. A fast song may confuse the movement. By going for a song not too slow or too fast it makes it easier to learn steps and is more enjoyable to dance.4. Considering more than one song for your wedding dance gives you more chances to get choose the perfect song. It can be any number. Usually, most wedding couples end up with an average of two potential first dance songs. It’s also worth considering songs that have been performed by more than one artist or band. ‘How Deep is Your Love’ is by Bee Gees, but it has also been performed by Take That.5. It’s always helpful to ask other people about potential wedding dance songs. A dance teacher would likely suggest a song that is easy to dance, a DJ some popular chart hits song, a friend something they know you like. You consider all options and then decide what song both of you really want to go for.Finding a special song for your wedding first dance should be good fun. The more fun it is the more you’ll enjoy dancing on your big day. What’s more, everyone will be on their feet and the whole atmosphere will be just amazing.A comprehensive list all time favourite wedding first dance songs can be found on our wedding dancing division http://www.weddingdanceworkshops.co.uk/Songs/Paul Prifti
