Timing the "First Dance"

TIMING IS EVERYTHING

One of the most meaningful moments during any reception is the couple's first dance together as husband and wife so its important to find the right time to do this. We recommend this being one of the first thing you tackle on the big day.

GET DOWN TO BUSINESS

We usually recommend that after the couple enters their reception, its a perfect time for the first dance. It kicks off the entire night with your guests watching the special moment of a new union and it couldn't get sweeter than that!

NERVES GETTING TO YOU?

If dancing in front of a big crowd makes you nervous we suggest you wait until after dinner for a seamless transition into dancing! It also encourages guests to join you on the dance floor following the first dance moment, going right into party mode!

DO YOU HAVE A DIFFERENT IDEA?

Ultimately, there's no right or wrong answer. As long as the timing feels right to the couple and the music plays, its going to be a magical moment!

LASTLY, DON'T FORGET TO PICK A GREAT SONG TO DANCE TO!
