Pro Tip from US
Whatever song you choose, remember this: it doesn’t have to be a “Top 40” wedding hit. The best first dance song is the one that means the most to you two. We’ve seen couples dance to acoustic covers, mashups, and even songs they discovered on road trips together.
We’ll help make sure your first dance feels effortless—whether that means editing your track down to two minutes or mixing in a custom version that’s all your own.
