Wedding Dance Trends

The 7th-grade sway just doesn't cut it anymore. Today's bride and groom want a first dance that has meaning to them and that reflects their personalities. That's why more and more couples are taking dance lessons before their weddings.

Traditional? You might want to choose a song by Frank Sinatra, Michael Buble or Etta James to name a few.

Contemporary? Think about songs that are popular right now. They can be a lot of fun, and reflect the wonderful year you got married.

Got your own style? Go for something that really shows off your personality: Offbeat songs, choreography with a lift or a dip. There is so much you can do right now to make your first dance uniquely yours, and create a memory to last a lifetime. Fast and fun, slow and romantic...it's your day and your dance. Have a great time with it!
