My article, Mastering the first dance, on how to match your first dance to your wedding style, was recently published on Charlotte Wedding magazine's Bride+Groom blog! Check it out by following the link below.

Amy & Jim | Frank Sinatra First Dance Song

Amy & Jim | Frank Sinatra First Dance Song

I had the pleasure of working with Amy and Jim a few weeks before their May wedding. They chose the classic love song “All The Way” by Frank Sinatra for their first dance. I wasn’t very familiar with this song when we began our lessons; however, you can almost never go wrong with Frank and this song certainly does not disappoint. All The Way is a wonderful first dance song for a classic and classy wedding and I’m sure Amy and Jim looked as stunning and dapper on dance floor as a modern-day Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.

Clearly, you can use whichever first dance song you choose, but some just seem to fit in certain settings better than others. I imagine Louis Armstrong’s version of La Vie en Rose being danced to at a classic, black-tie wedding in the city with a huge dance floor and spotlights on the newlyweds.
