Wedding Ceremony & Reception Music Discussions

What dance can I do with this?

I've picked our song :) L-O-V-E by Nat King Cole. We love it so much and are so excited to dance to it at our wedding! However, I'm not sure what "dance" would fit it best. I'd love for it to be perfect of course, so if I can learn how to do something (like a waltz or tango or something) and make it look great, that would be ideal. Anyone know what would be best to use? I hope this is the right section. Thank you :)

    We are using this as our first dance song!  Our DJ loved the choice!  We did not learn a specific dance for it.  It just wasn't a focus for us and we didn't have time, we've only been planning for 5 months.  

    We kind of have a "love" theme going on.  Our invitations begin with "in a celebration of love..."  I got napkins and matchbooks that say LOVE on them.  We call each other Love.  The song was just perfect.

    If you can learn a basic step that can look great without going for a whole routine.  I can't remember the song to have an idea what would work.  There is a dance instructor floating around these boards somewhere.  She might pop up when she sees your topic.

    Thanks :) I was thinking that too, just some sort of step that would have the right tempo and everything for it, I don't really need a whole routine just a simple thing we can do over and over lol.

    benmel - do you mind my asking how your invitations are worded? I'm trying to get ideas, I've come up with a few so far but that one sounds like it'd be nice!
