A great first group dance song at a wedding reception can set the tone for the partying for the rest of the event. This photo of the couple dancing in the middle of their adoring guests shows the energy that can be created when you get everyone involved early. The couple had a choreographed First Dance that busted out from a regular slow dance song at the start. It was a high-energy number after that, full of cheeky dance moves that riled up the crowd. Before the song was over though they waved all their guests onto the dance floor, which completely energized the guests. This eases the transition between the first dances and the regular dancing, as people can have a hard time getting off their bottoms after a big dinner.
