First Dance- Alternative
This list of first dance selections is for brides and grooms who want to step out of the box and try something different. Most of these songs are not in the mainstream and have seldom been used. We make an effort to find and present options unique to each couple. While many people do like the classic or traditional selections, this offers unique alternatives. If you come across songs that you think we should add to our list, we would love to know! Please “enter a comment” in the space provided below…
