Study Finds Top 5 Best Wedding Songs of All Time

Author Joel Katz
NEW YORK, NEW YORK - JUNE 06: Ed Sheeran performs on NBC's "Today" at Rockefeller Plaza on June 06, 2023 in New York City.

The first dance is one of the most memorable moments of any wedding. It’s a cherished tradition where the newlyweds take to the dance floor for the first time as a married couple. Selecting the right song for your first dance can be a deeply personal and meaningful decision, as it sets the tone for your special day. You want a song that reflects your unique love story.

My wife and didn’t have a difficult decision because it was the song that we first danced to when we started dating. We went out to eat and it just happened to be playing when we spontaneously began to dance out on the patio of the restaurant.

Our song was “My Romance,” but if you have trouble deciding there are a few things you can do to help land on a favorite.

I was a wedding DJ for many years and can offer some tips. Before diving into song options, take some time to reflect on your journey as a couple. Consider the moments that have defined your relationship, and the memories you’ve shared. Think about the music that has been the soundtrack to your love story, and any songs that hold special significance for both of you.

Every couple has their own style, and your first dance song should reflect that. Whether you’re traditional, contemporary, or somewhere in between, your song choice should align with your personality and the overall theme of your wedding.

You also have to pay close attention to the lyrics of the songs you’re considering. Some songs may have beautiful melodies but may not convey the message or sentiment you want for your first dance.

The tempo of the song is an important factor to consider. If you’re not confident in your dancing abilities, a slower song might be easier to dance to. You need to make sure the song’s tempo matches your dance skills.

If you’re struggling to find the ideal song you can browse wedding playlists or check out songs from your favorite artists. You might find a hidden gem that you hadn’t considered before.

Celebrity Breakups and Divorces of 2023

2023 has seen a lot of celebrity deaths — and deaths in love due to breakups. Some couples have called it quits after years of being together. New relationships formed that looked as though they were meant for each other.

We’ve all wished for some relationships to have stayed together, despite not knowing what goes on behind closed doors. Celebrities are a prime example of not knowing what they are like in real life versus the facade of a perfect relationship they put out there.

Sometimes, fans are more upset than the celebrities who are going through the breakup! When Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn called it quits after 5 years together and a rumored secret marriage, fans professed they gave up on love entirely. Others used the breakups as a way to bash celebrities. Ariana Grande’s divorce announcement to Dalton Gomez caused viral videos of her alleged years of cheating on partners. As for the couples who share children together, our hearts broke for the ones we thought were happily ever afters.

Take a look below at all the major celebrity relationships that have come to an end in 2023.
