Top Wedding Songs in 2014


Can't figure out the perfect song for your first dance? Don't worry! Dance FX Studios in Mesa, Arizona has put together a list of the top 10 wedding songs this 2014 season. With everything from country dance music to classic Frank Sinatra, here are the songs that all of our brides and grooms are wanting this year, accompanied by what kind of dance you can do to that song!

*Note: You'll see the dance Nite Club 2 Step quite a bit... Most first dances tend to be slow, so the beautifully versatile slow dance, Nite Club, is often the best choice. Plenty of our couples go with less traditional songs and dances, though, so don't be afraid of an upbeat first dance!

1. All of Me - John Legend

dance: Nite Club 2 Step
Everyone knows this song by now. Beautiful and simple, it really captures the true essence of a relationship. Consider having it slowed down a little, though, to make it easier to dance to.

2. I Won't Give Up - Jason Mraz

dance: Nite Club 2 Step or Waltz

The message of this song is very honest. It definitely speaks to the level of commitment you both are promising. (I don't recommend attempting a waltz unless you both have previous dance experience. It's quick!).

3. Everything - Michael Buble

dance: Nite Club 2 Step

This one has been around for a while, but the song remains the perfect wedding song!

4. I Will Never Let You Down - Rita Ora

dance: Nite Club 2 Step or Salsa

This new song is much perkier than most on this list. This fun and flirty song shifts back and forth between moods, so you can play with a quick Nite Club or a mellow Salsa dance. Experiment, your guests will love it!

5. Marry Me - Train

dance: Nite Club 2 Step

The title says it all. "Marry Me" is a wedding staple for a reason.

6. At Last - Etta James

dance: Nite Club 2 Step

Lots of couples like to go old school with this beautiful song. Etta really understands the relief that can come from finally finding true love.

7. Then - Brad Paisley

dance: Nite Club 2 Step

For the Country fans out there, Brad Paisley's "Then" is the perfect first dance.

8. Lucky - Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat

dance: Nite Club 2 Step

This light-hearted song is great for couples who have really found their best friend in their partner. Not too slow, not too fast, it's perfect for a mellow slow dance.

9. The Way You Look Tonight - Frank Sinatra

dance: Foxtrot

Frank really knew how to sing, didn't he? For couples who want a more classic feel, this jazzy tune is the perfect addition to their big day.

10. Wagon Wheel - Old Crow Medicine Show

dance: Country Two Step (Arizona Two Step) or Country Swing

Another one for the Country wedding that doesn't want a traditional slow song. "Wagon Wheel" is lovely for a relaxed Two Step or Country Swing.

  1. I love the space here. The main floor is very large and good size without being overwhelming, also there's tons of bar space too to order drinks.
