{Wedding Wednesday} shall we dance…but to what song?

by | May 29, 2013 | Weddings | 188 comments

Happy Wedding Wednesday!

Shall we dance…..but to what song?  That’s the question many couples ask themselves as preparing for their special day.

We all know that choosing your wedding DJ or band is an important step in your planning process, as they control the mood for the entire 4 or 5 hours of your reception.  But smaller parts of your musical choices play a big role in setting the tone for your wedding as well, particularly your first dance.

Some couples have “their” song…a song they heard on their first date, or one that always makes them laugh or cry together.  This isn’t necessarily the right song for their first dance as husband and wife, though.  The first song should be chosen thoughtfully and be an accurate representation of the two of you both as individuals and as a union.

Here are some tips to pick a first dance you won’t regret:

– Always consider the lyrics.  Aside from watching the couple and hearing the music, guests will also be listening to the words of the song.  Explicit language, depressing songs, or tunes with oddball lyrics are not acceptable during your first dance!

– Get the party song out of your systems during the introduction.  At many weddings, the bridal party and newly married couple are introduced into the reception to an upbeat song to get everyone pumped up for the rest of the evening.  Then, the couple goes into their first dance.  Lately, popular introduction songs have been Beyonce’s  “Crazy In Love” and the Black Eyed Peas’ “I’ve Gotta Feeling”.

– Don’t try to make it a Dancing with the Stars performance.  If you’re both Broadway dancers, it would be a great way to show off your talent, but if you and your new spouse both have two left feet, make sure your song doesn’t require hours of practice.

On the same note (no pun intended), many people suggest attending a dance class to brush up on the basic waltz and foxtrot before your wedding.  I disagree- I think the moves for your first dance should reflect who you are, and if ballroom dancing isn’t your style, don’t fake it just for tradition’s sake.

Some of my favorite first dance songs span across all genres:

– Etta James – “At Last”

– Mary J Blige– “Everything”

-The Carpenters- “Close to You”

– Stevie Wonder- “Ribbon In The Sky”

– Eric Benet and Tamia– “Spend My Life With You”

– Celine Dion- “Because You Loved Me”

– HeatWave– “Always and Forever”

– Beyonce- “Love on Top”

– Nat King Cole – “Unforgettable”

-Shania Twain- “From This Moment”

 

 

Keep dancing the night away,

  5. 世界盃杯世足賽 on May 22, 2026 at 1:41 pm

    FIFA世界杯
    2026 FIFA 世界盃 將會由 48 個國家代表隊 角逐冠軍，本屆賽事將分成 12 個小組，每個小組由 4 支球隊組成。每組排名前兩位的隊伍 可晉級 下一輪賽事，進行 16 強至決賽的淘汰賽程。

    本屆世界盃 將於 2026 年 6 月 正式開踢。開幕賽事 預計由 墨西哥與南非交手，並在 6 月 12 日 於阿茲特克體育場舉行。同日後續賽程中，南韓與捷克交手。接下來一天，還有加拿大 VS 波士尼亞、美國 VS 巴拉圭等首輪比賽。

    小組賽方面，A 組 由 墨西哥、南非、南韓與捷克；B 組 則由 加拿大、波士尼亞、卡達以及瑞士；C 組 則由 巴西、摩洛哥、海地與蘇格蘭組成。像是 巴西、法國、阿根廷、英格蘭、西班牙與德國等熱門球隊 都已確定分組結果。

    淘汰賽 會在 7 月初 正式進行，16 強賽 大約在 7 月 4 日 開始，而冠軍戰預定於 7 月 19 日 進行，最終將產生本屆世界盃冠軍。

    歷史交手紀錄顯示，墨西哥過去曾與南非於 2010 年世界盃 對決，當時雙方以 1 比 1 握手言和，至今未分勝負。

    同時，越位、黃牌、紅牌、VAR 與點球等規則，也是觀眾理解比賽的重要基礎，球迷對規則判定仍十分關心。

    I needed a practical power bank for travel and work.
    While searching online I found the Gadget World News blog: https://gadgetworldnews.com/
    It was difficult to find simple explanations about charging speed and capacity.
    I quickly understood which models were worth buying.
    Helpful resource for budget gadget shopping.

    Нещодавно я вирішив оновити деякі автотовари для своєї машини я почав переглядати різні інтернет-магазини. Під час пошуку я натрапив на сайт https://crazytachka.com.ua.

    На цьому сайті я зміг знайти всі необхідні автомобільні аксесуари. Асортимент виявився добре структурованим.

    Також приємно здивувало, що на сайті є розділ із порадами для водіїв. Там можна знайти статті про експлуатацію авто.

    Я можу впевнено порадити цей ресурс всім, хто шукає аксесуари для комфортної їзди.
