1st Dance Song...and 2nd

We are doing this as well... well kinda...

We are currently deciding between 2 songs for our first dance.

Then we have another song we were SURE we wanted to dance with one another to at our wedding but really wasnt the "first dance" song we wanted. SO we decided it would be the LAST slow song of the night...

It seemed to be a good compromise for us

I've thought of doing the same thing. I don't see why it's a problem but I'm thinking that during the 2nd dance maybe half way through invite others to come up and dance with there date/significant other.

You could do it as the first song of the night and the last song of the night

Unless you are talking about like half of one song blending into the second song please do not actually dance to 2 songs back to back for your first dance. I know as a guest at a wedding that sitting through all the special dances in the beginning of the reception can feel like an eternity! It's sweet for like 2 minutes and then you're like "ok when is this song over, how long do we all have to sit here and watch them stand there and sway?" 2 first dance songs and then parents songs would be way too much, don't put your guests through that! I like the idea of making one your first dance song and then one the end of the night song. Or how about using once as your entrance song or cake cutting song? Incorporate them both in a meaningful way but choose only ONE for the first dance

There are a few ways you could do this that wouldn't make it awkward:

Do Fortunate for your first dance, then as Is This Love starts, the DJ can announce that the dance floor is now open to all guests, but you two can still continue to dance together.

OR

You could have Fortunate as your First Dance, then as your last dance together before you make your grand exit, do Is This Love.

For your audience's sake, I definitely do not recommend dancing to two songs consecutively. I recommend choosing one for the First Dance and then playing the other during the cake cutting or as the Last Dance. Since you are planning a First Dance and may even be spotlighted twice, I highly recommend investing in a few dance lessons to look confident and elegant and be able to keep your audience's attention.

I have to agree that 2 dances are too much, and the guests will get all glassy eyed and start losing attention. If you really want to dance to the second song too though...what don't you lead it off, then have the dj/band invite others to join you on the dance floor?
