In traditional Greek weddings, you do your typical slow dance (which only recently has become popular), and then you start your traditional line dances.
We went with somewhat of a cliche tune, Perfect by Ed Sheeran feat. Beyonce. I love how her part echoes his.
Then we line up for our Greek dances and really get the party started lol
We are dancing to the second chorus of You & Me by Dave Matthews after the second chorus our DJ is going to blend into "Our House" by Flo-Rida to get the party started. All of our friends know this is our party/vacation song and as soon as they hear the finger snaps in the beginning they will know what to do. I just couldn't have everyone staring at us for the entire Dave Matthews song & wanted to do something fun.
FH and I had decided to do I Promise You by the Backstreet Boys. I'm a huge BSB fan (don't judge 😂) and FH knew most of their songs before we met. So one day this specific song came up in the car and he said "this would be a good first dance song". So really, he picked it!

I love the idea of having it blend into a song to get the party started! I feel like after the first 30 seconds - 1 min of watching pretty much anyone dance to a song, I always feel like "ok, I got some cute pics, let's wrap it up" lol. I might be doing something like this as well
We danced to Harvest Moon by Neil Young. The band that we had at our wedding did such a good job playing it! I mostly let DH pick the song because he's super picky with music.
