💡 Tips for Choosing Your First Dance Song


  • Consider your relationship story: Is there a song you’ve always loved together?

  • Think about the tempo: If you’re not confident dancers, avoid overly complex arrangements.

  • Ask your DJ: We’ve seen what works and what doesn’t. Need inspiration? The Knot’s first dance playlist is a great place to start.



🕺 Want to Choreograph It?


Whether you’re planning a full dance routine or keeping it simple, talk to your DJ. We’ll help you structure the timing so your song fades in and out smoothly—no awkward cuts or panic mid-spin.


We can also provide custom editing for songs or fade out points. Learn more on our Wedding DJ Services Page.



Your Song, Your Moment


No matter what you choose, the most important thing is that it feels like you. It’s your story—and your song should reflect that.
