Lauren & Stephen | Ritchie Valens First Dance Song
"Practice makes permanent."
Lauren, a former ice skater, spoke these words during our first wedding dance lesson last summer. I realized how very true these words are when applied both to learning how to dance and to the marriage that comes after the wedding. Practicing patience with each other and practicing loving and encouraging speech will only strengthen a relationship. And wedding dance lessons are a great place to strengthen your loving habits when tested and challenged while learning a new skill.
Lauren and Stephen danced to Ritchie Valens' "We Belong Together." I love this song for its simple, romantic and meaningful lyrics. It's also great when performed by a band, which Lauren and Stephen danced to on their wedding day.
Congratulations, Lauren and Stephen!
You're mine and we belong together
Yes, we belong together, for eternity
You're mine, your lips belong to me
Yes, they belong to only me, for eternity
You're mine, my baby and you'll always be
I swear by everything I own
You'll always, always be mine
You're mine, and we belong together
Yes, we belong together, for eternity
