Alright, alright, listen up y’all! We’re gonna talk about them bride and groom dance songs, you know, the ones them young’uns sway to at weddings. I ain’t no fancy DJ or nothin’, but I know a thing or two about love and music, been around long enough, you see.
First off, you gotta pick somethin’ that means somethin’ to you two. Don’t just pick some song ’cause it’s popular on the radio these days. Them young folks, they like that Ed Sheerhan fella, singin’ “Thinking Out Loud” and all that. Says somethin’ about takin’ you into their lovin’, which I guess is nice and all.
But me, I like them old-timey songs, the ones that stick with ya. That Elvis fella, he sang that “Can’t Help Falling In Love” song. Been around forever, but still makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. That’s what you want, a song that makes your heart thump-thump, not just some noise.
Now, finding that perfect song, that’s the tricky part. Don’t just listen to what’s new, dig a little deeper, you hear? Go back to them old records, them 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s tunes. They were classics for a reason, them singers knew how to pour their hearts out. Spotify, they got them playlists, you can listen for hours.
And listen, your first dance, it’s gotta be about you. Maybe you danced to a certain song on your first date? Or maybe you sing it together in the car, loud and off-key? That’s the kinda song you want. Somethin’ that connects you, like two peas in a pod.
I heard tell there’s websites with lists of songs, like this “WedVibes” place. They got 88 best first dance songs, or so they say. But don’t just take their word for it, you gotta feel it in your bones. The lyrics gotta say somethin’ about your love, you know? Like how you feel when you look at each other, all mushy and stuff.
- Slow and sweet: For them slow dances, where you can hold each other close. Them Elvis songs, or maybe some of them old country tunes, they work real good. Think about songs that talk about forever, about always bein’ there for each other.
- Upbeat and fun: Now, if you two ain’t the slow dancin’ types, that’s alright too. Pick somethin’ with a little pep in its step! Somethin’ you can twirl and laugh to. Just make sure it ain’t too crazy, you don’t want to be stompin’ on each other’s feet.
- Meaningful lyrics: This is the big one, folks. The words gotta matter. Don’t just pick a song because it’s got a catchy beat. Listen to what they’re sayin’. Does it tell your story? Does it make you think of your sweetheart? That’s how you know you got the right one.
And don’t be afraid to be different! Just because everyone else is dancin’ to one song, doesn’t mean you gotta. If you love some crazy polka song, then dance to that polka song! It’s your wedding, your dance, your love story. You do what makes you happy, that’s all that matters.
So, there you have it, my two cents on them bride and groom dance songs. Just remember, it ain’t about the fanciest song, or the most popular song. It’s about finding that one song that makes your hearts sing, that makes you feel like you’re the only two people in the world. Now go on and find that song, and dance your hearts out!
One last thing, don’t forget to practice! You don’t want to be steppin’ on each other’s toes on your big day. And most importantly, have fun! It’s a celebration, a time to be happy and in love. So smile, hold each other tight, and dance like nobody’s watchin’.
