Time to Party
Now that dinner's done and the speeches are over, it's time to really celebrate. This is where your playlist can make or break the energy. You want songs that get people moving – even the groomsman who swears he won't dance.
Shut Up and Dance – Walk the Moon
Uptown Funk – Bruno Mars
Dancing Queen – ABBA
Mr. Brightside – The Killers
September – Earth, Wind & Fire
I Wanna Dance with Somebody – Whitney Houston
Hey Ya! – Outkast
Levitating – Dua Lipa
Yeah! – Usher
Super Freak – Rick James
Mother Dance
This dance is a moment to acknowledge this important person and relationship. It doesn't need to be overly sentimental or traditional. Just choose a song that reflects your connection.
Humble and Kind – Tim McGraw
Simple Man – Lynyrd Skynyrd
Forever Young – Rod Stewart
My Wish – Rascal Flatts
You'll Be in My Heart – Phil Collins
Don't overthink this one. Even 90 seconds of dancing together says everything.
Father Dance
This dance is about honoring the relationships that have shaped you and your partner. At its core, it's about connection and appreciation – whatever that looks like for you.
Isn't She Lovely – Stevie Wonder
Butterfly Kisses – Bob Carlisle
Cinderella – Steven Curtis Chapman
I Loved Her First – Heartland
The Way You Look Tonight – Frank Sinatra
Sweet Child of Mine – cover by Music Travel Love
Whether you both cry or laugh the whole time, just make it yours.
Grand Entrance: Make a Statement
You're married now! Your grand entrance is your chance to start the party. This entrance sets the tone for the rest of the night. So, choose a song that matches your energy and lets everyone know. It's time to celebrate!
Marry You – Bruno Mars
Can't Stop the Feeling – Justin Timberlake
Signed, Sealed, Delivered – Stevie Wonder
Accidentally In Love – Counting Crows
This Will Be (An Everlasting Love) – Natalie Cole
Feel So Close – Calvin Harris
Forever – Chris Brown
The Secret Last Dance
This is something many couples are doing now. After everyone leaves for the send-off, you get one more dance in with no audience. Some replay their first dance song. Others pick something completely different – maybe that weird indie track only they understand.
Whatever you choose, it's your moment to breathe. To look around at the empty dance floor and realize you actually did it.
The Real Talk
When people think back on your wedding day, they're not going to remember whether or not the flowers were perfectly arranged. They'll remember how fun the celebration of your union was. Don’t stress over all of the details on your wedding day, just focus on beginning your life with your partner.
