Wedding First Dance Songs
Your wedding first dance song is a very personal choice. The main advice we can give is to pick something that you love and that means something to you both. You will be practicing your dance lots outside of our lessons ( hopefully!) so you also want to try and choose a song you won’t get sick of!!
That said, here are some of our favourites we have done to give you some inspiration….
