Sometimes the first dance is one of the most emotionally packed moments for the bride and groom, full of love, joy and devotion. Other times, the first dance is three to four minutes of absolute terror. If the couple is shy or does not enjoy dancing, standing there doing the high school shuffle can be almost unbearable. Then it’s followed by the terror of knowing you have other special dances coming up. There is the father/daughter, mother/son dances to further terrorize the happy couple.
If this is you, maybe I can help. Instead of dancing the entire first dance song alone, why not dance for a few moments then split up and bring your parents up. The bride would bring her father up to dance with her and the groom brings the bride’s mother to the floor to dance. A few minutes later the bride’s father takes his wife as his dance partner and the bride and groom bring up the grooms parents to dance. The groom’s father dances with the bride and the groom’s mother with her son. A few minutes later the groom reclaims his bride and the groom’s father dances with his wife. You now have three happy couples on the dance floor. So not only have you not had to dance the whole song alone you have also gotten all the “special” dances out of the way in one shot.
