First Dance Help?

clighthart

Me any my fiance want to have a creative first dance. We want to start dancing to a slow song (that we have not picked yet) and break in the middle and do something fun and choreographed. For a sample, on youtube there is a first dance with I like big butts which is similar to what we want. Besides Michael Jackson, what is a good song we could break into and dance and have fun with?

Thanks for your help.

This is a little hodgepodge, but.....
I gotta Feeling, by the black eyed peas.
Something by Justin Timberlake or Lady Gaga. "Bad Romance" if you're feeling brave and have guests with a sense of humor.
I've seen people recommend 'Misirlou' by D*ck Dale & His Del-Tones. Might not be your style.
Lol @ the knot for making me edit the shorthand for "Richard"

If you like swing dancing at all, there are some pretty cool Brian Setzer Orchestra songs ("Jump, Jive, N Wail") that would be fun & unexpected. Elderly guests especially will probably get a kick out of the music!
My favorite Setzer song, though maybe not quite as upbeat, would be PERFECT for a pre-planned wedding dance- it's a duet between Setzer and Gwen Stefani called "You're the Boss". It begs for choreography... a bit suggestive, but not racy, and the end of the song is comical.
I'm actually considering doing a little choreographed number at my own wedding with this one

...Or there's always the Chris Brown, "Forever" song (Double your pleasure, double your fun....) This was the song that was used on that YouTube smash where a BP danced down the aisle last year.

We're having a traditional first dance song and as that song is finishing we are dancing to a swing dance song.  We took dance lessons together a month ago and learned how to swing dance. That way we still have the traditional dance but can have some fun w/ it too.  It's going to a surprise for everyone!   have fun with your dance!
