20 of the Best First Dance Wedding Songs

Picking your first dance song is a big deal, here are some song ideas to get you started

Your first dance as a married couple is a big deal, so it deserves some serious consideration. When it comes to picking the song, there’s really just one rule: Choose something you both actually love. Why? Because every time that song comes on for the rest of your lives, you’ll both be hit with a wave of “aww, this is our song”. No pressure!

Your first dance song isn’t just about the now - it’s a little love letter to where you’ve been and where you’re going as a couple. Whether you’re vibing to an Ed Sheeran classic, a slow country jam, a soulful John Legend ballad, a funny Adam Sandler tune, or the latest hit that’ll have your guests singing along - your first dance sets the tone for the whole reception. No pressure!
