The first dance at a wedding is one of the most fun parts of a wedding. First, you get to dance with your person in front of all the people who have seen your love grow over time. How special is that? Also, you get to show off your dancing skills and set the marriage vibe! Will it be something you two can groove out to? Or do you want something that has a bit of a beat to it for some artful twirls and an epic kiss dip?
