  I'm not having a bridal party dance, but I recently went to a wedding where they chose "Wonderwall" by Oasis. I loved it!

  Were not having one b/c every time I've seen one, it was awkward. People generally don't like dancing (esp slow dancing) with people who aren't their SO's while their SO's (if they're not in the WP) sit on the sidelines. Unless you're allowing them to slow dance with their SO's, I might skip it, or at least go with a fast song that wouldn't require awkward slow dancing.

  This. My 3 girls haven't even met his 3 guys yet, and everyone except 1 is married or in a very serious relationship. so it would just be awkward all around. We're already doing everything (ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, etc.) in 5.5-6 hours at the same location, so one fewer dance means more time for my guests to enjoy themselves!
  
  Even when the BP knows each other, a BP dance isn't necessary. I was in a wedding last fall where there were 4 BMs and 4 GMs. Of them, 2 sets were married couples, I knew the guy I walked with fairly well, and then the last BM and GM had just met. There was no BP dance, and I was thankful for it, even though I knew the GM I would have danced with.
  
  With that said, if you're adamant about having a bridal party dance, I'd pick something unromantic and not super slow.
