2. Make sure you read through the lyrics of the song you select just in case the message is all wrong for a wedding situation. Lyrics for songs can be found on the internet by typing the name of the song and the singers name followed by 'song lyrics' into a Search Engine such as Google.
EG... I Knew I Loved You Before I Met You Savage Garden song lyrics.
3. Make sure the music you choose to dance to is the correct tempo (speed) for your chosen dance. For example the sensuous moves in the Rumba will be lost if you dance to a song that is too fast.
It is also true, that the slower the song the harder it will be to dance to. If you are worried about finding a song with the correct tempo just check it against the dance songs on your Learn Your Wedding Dance DVD.
4. If you have set your heart on a particular song for your wedding dance and are not sure which dance would be suitable please email us the name of the song and the artist and we will do our best to help you. Free email support is available with every purchase of the Learn Your Wedding Dance DVD (Click here to order your DVD .)
5. The optimum length for a first dance should be about 2 minutes long. Being on the dance floor alone performing for longer than this will seem like an eternity, and it is best to leave your guests cheering for more! As most popular songs are longer than 2 minutes you will need to coordinate with the person controlling your music to fade the song when they see you performing your dance ending moves. (See DVD for dance ending suggestions.)
6. Don't make your first dance at your wedding the first time you dance in public. Make sure you practice with other people around at least once. This will ensure you are not nervous on your wedding day. Your local RSL club may be a good venue for this if they have social dance nights. You must get out on a social dance floor and "do it live ."

Go to www.amazon.com and use the Search to find the artist and song you are after. You will then be presented with a list of albums. Choose one and you will be taken to the album details.
