A bridal party dance is traditionally done right after the bride and groom’s first dance or as a part of the first dance by joining in after a one or two minutes. It’s a fun way to say thank you to your wedding party by giving them a special dance song that’s just for them and a way to show them off to your guests! Also, it makes a fabulous photo opportunity!
The bridal party dance was more popular 10-15 years ago, but today, more couples are choosing not to have the dance as part of their wedding reception.
If you do choose to have a bridal party dance, you can work it in as part of your first dance so the wedding party is sharing in your first dance as husband and wife. Or, it’s a nice way to kick off the dance floor, especially if you have a large bridal party. After dinner, you could have the bridal party start off with a meaningful song that morphs into a great dance song. This way, the bridal party is bringing energy and excitement to the dance floor and can call others to come join them.
