Father of the Bride/Bride - Mother of the Groom/GroomLove Songs and First Dances The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face by Roberta Flack, George Michael or Celine Dion
Most wedding receptions will start with the brand new husband and wife having their first romantic dance as their life together begins.  After the first dance, tradition has two further dances. The first of these is with everyone dancing, but led by the bride and her father with the second again everyone, but led by the groom and his mother. It's entirely upto you how many songs you have to start your new life together. Some only have one and invite their guests to join them half way through. Others have two and do the first on their own and invite all guests to join in on the second. The only advice we can offer is to do what you feel is right. Some people hate the thought of dancing infront of their friends and family, other relish it. One thing we really can help with, using our years of experience as Norfolk and Suffolk's Premier Wedding DJ Specialist, is the choice of song. Unfortunately when you listen to most slow songs, they are actually about people breaking up so not very suitable as a first dance! Here are the lyrics to a song that is about people being in love, The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face by Roberta Flack, George Michael or Celine Dion, so you can see if the lyrics suit your situation. You can also hear an audio sample and check out some father/bride and mother/groom songs too, all by scrolling down.

Lyrics to The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face sung by Roberta Flack, George Michael, Celine Dion or Leona Lewis
Written by Ewan MacColl
The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and endless skies, my love
To the dark and the endless skies
And the first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hands
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command, my love
And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joyu would fill the earth
And last till the end of time, my love
And it will last till the end of time, my love
The first time ever I saw your face, your face
Your face, your face
