First Dance Songs

Today I was thinking about all of the different ways to make a wedding a true reflection of the bride and groom. Their personalities, their relationship. The first dance song is a quesiton I get a lot. “What is a unique, but not too weird first dance song? One people will know, but won’t have used before.” My advice, pick a song that you two both love and can relate to! It doesn’t necessarily have to have all of the perfect lyrics to summarize the ideal relationship. It just needs to be special to the two of you! Below are a few suggestions that I adore. Some are extremely classic songs that you have probably heard at a friend’s wedding, and some might be a little too obscure. xo Carly
