How To Ensure Your First Dance Is Perfect

Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

Your wedding day will be full of special songs, among other things.  Walking down the aisle, first dance, or the farewell song at the end of the night, it’s your wedding so you get to choose the perfect song for you.

If you’re placing your trust in a DJ to provide these songs for you, be sure to double check they’re bring the right version.  Have them email a short sample to you, or send them the version you have just to be sure.  Similarly if you’re using an iPod and going DIY with the wedding music – make sure you have the right track.

For example, Lonestar released 2 prominent versions of their song AMAZED.  Same song, but each sounds quite different.  In fact one version is often mistakenly identified as “Tim McGraw”.

There are many other examples of songs with multiple logical versions.  It’s easy to check you have the right song, but  it’s impossible to have your first dance or walk down the aisle again.

The thing about your wedding is that it’s your wedding.  This means there is no right or wrong about any aspect – you can do things any way you like!  Isn’t that exciting?!??!

I’ve worked with couples who chose to drop the traditional first dance and replace it with something just as unique and romantic.  One couple considered the idea of not having a processional song at all (bride walking up the aisle at beginning of ceremony), instead arriving at the same time as the groom – but with a twist.  (more…)

Auckland Zoo offers a number of options for a very creative and unique wedding reception.   I’ve been involved with ceremonies at the band rotunda, which have usually been followed by a reception down the path at the Old Elephant House.
