How to Choose the Perfect First Dance Song for Your Wedding

Your first dance is one of the most emotional and memorable moments of your wedding. Choosing the right song can feel overwhelming with so many options, but it doesn’t have to be. Here’s how to pick the perfect first dance song that reflects your love story.

1. Think About Your Story
Start with songs that mean something to you as a couple—maybe the song from your first date or the one that played during your proposal.

2. Match the Mood
Do you want romantic and slow, or fun and upbeat? Ed Sheeran’s “Perfect” works for timeless romance, while “Can’t Stop the Feeling” by Justin Timberlake brings fun energy.

3. Consider Your Guests
A good wedding DJ in Santa Clarita will make sure your first dance song transitions smoothly into the rest of the night so guests feel included.

4. Keep It Short and Sweet
Most couples only dance for 2–3 minutes before inviting guests to join.
