Song for the Wedding Party Dance

Keep in mind, this is usually the last of the formal dance songs; meaning open dancing begins after this song.

Other great friend themed songs include These Are My People by Rodney Atkins and the TV show theme song from Friends – Rembrandts’ I’ll Be There For You.

A wedding party dance is not a required dance in the list of formal dance songs. However, it is a great way to get people in a partying mood and watching people dancing. The wedding party song can also be the start of asking all wedding guests to join in on the dance floor.

Depending on your desired wedding theme, you can choose songs with a “friends” theme, a “love” theme or just plain – Let’s Get This Party Started! We have included many different music styles, tempos, and eras below. A great mixture to find the perfect wedding party dance song.
