first dance song recommendations and other wedding dance advice
Andy Grammar has become one of the most popular artists for first dance songs in the past couple of years. Dare I say it, but he’s kind of like an Ed Sheeran — multiple, really good options for first dance songs that are not only beautiful but fun to dance to.
Here are some of my favorite Andy Grammar songs for your first dance.
I’m starting a new series on my blog of “First Dance Inspiration” posts, featuring my gorgeous students and the wedding dance choreography that I am particularly proud of. I’ll be sharing videos or photos of first dances that I love. If you want to see more, jump to the bottom of this post and subscribe to my email list, or follow me on Instagram or YouTube.
Now, without further ado, the following video is of Andrew and Dani’s first dance to Young And Beautiful by Lana Del Ray…
So you love “Beyond” by Leon Bridges and are considering dancing to this song for your first dance. Join the club!
Beyond was one of 2020’s most popular first dance songs at my wedding dance studio and online. Earlier this year, I shared a video on YouTube of one of my 2019 couples dancing to this song and the feedback has been so positive! I even received multiple requests to create an online tutorial based on this dance.
When you hear the lyrics, “you’re just too good to be true...can’t take my eyes off of you...,” who else immediately thinks of the scene from “Ten Things I Hate About You” where Heath Ledger serenades Julia Stiles over the PA system during soccer practice? 🙋♀️
It would be impossible to come up with ten things to hate about this first dance song! Keep reading for my recommendation as well as photographic inspiration for those of you considering this song for your first dance.
