Should the wedding guests join you in your opening dance?

This is very much a personal decision. I prefer it if the guests join you halfway through your dance as it stays with the purpose of the opening dance in that the newly married couple opens the dance floor at their wedding. One point I would like to make here is that if you want to do the whole song with the dance floor to yourselves then you edit the music to make your wedding song shorter. 3-4 minutes is a very long time to be dancing on the dance floor. When you see couples dancing on strictly come dancing their dances are usually 1.5 minutes. When a couple comes to me that wants to be alone on the dance floor for their opening song I edit the music for them so that it is less than 2 minutes. Rather have the wedding guests wanting more than getting bored. For more information click here.
