Less Played First Dance Songs
Maybe you're looking for something a little different for your first dance? Love songs are everywhere - movies, musicals, or the radio are great sources of inspiration! Or consider these less played, but still popular options:
- Songbird by Fleetwood Mac
- Beautiful by Gordon Lightfoot
- So This is Love by James Ingram
- Nothing's Gonna Change my Love for You by Glenn Medeiros
- Romeo & Juliet Love Theme composed by Tchaikovsky
Something Different, Something New
Not every couple fits the traditional, classic bride and groom mold. There's nothing wrong with straying from the norm and being a bit original in the selection of your first dance song! I would suggest any of these contemporary and often overlooked, tunes:
- Too Good to be True by Lauryn Hill - a soulful remake of a Frankie Valli classic.
- Luna by The Smashing Pumpkins
- I Will Always Love You by The Cure
- Forever in my Life by Prince
The first dance the two of you share as husband and wife is a very special moment and quite endearing to your guests as well. Take the time to really think about the song you will use before the wedding and talk about it with your fiancé. Whether you choose something different or decide to stick with tradition and sway to a popular first dance song, be sure to practice before the rehearsal or even squeeze in a few dance lessons!
