Should your wedding band play the first dance song?
Most wedding bands will learn the first dance for free, whereas others may charge a fee. If you decide you'd like the band to perform the first dance, it's usually best to kick in with their first set immediately afterwards. Bearing this in mind, it's often a good idea to delay the first dance slightly instead of bringing the band's first set forward. From a band's point of view, it's never nice to start too early in the evening - some guests may need a drink or two before committing to the dance floor, especially us Men!
Wedding Song Ideas
Your first dance song doesn't need to be a smoochy love song if you don't want it to be; there are unlimited options on the table, from fun, upbeat TV theme tunes to the downright silly and utterly unique. Whatever you decide on, ensure it's something that reflects your unique personality and the vibe you want to create.
