Unusual First Dance Songs

Choosing the right song for your first dance can be really overwhelming. There are so many great tracks to choose from. Most couples want to select a song that is meaningful to them and easy to dance to. Their ideal song will also be appropriate for a wedding environment and help to create the right “feel good” mood.

The first dance is one of our favorite moments of the wedding day. It really is a special moment for the couple, their families, and close friends.

We just love it when couples choose a song that is that little bit different, unusual, and unique. These first dances are often the most memorable that we encounter.

We’ve worked at literally hundreds of weddings over the years and witnessed the same number of first dances. We’ve compiled a list of our favorite and unusual first dance songs that we’ve heard. At the bottom of the list, we’ve provided a playlist for Spotify.

Some songs will make you smile, others may make you cry. Heck, some might even make you cringe. However, we’re willing to bet that you’ll find a song in the list below that will instantly speak to you both.

So without further adieu, let’s be having it. Our recommended list of unique and unusual first dance songs for your wedding. Enjoy!
