Supper Club Wedding Dance Ideas
Downtown brings up images of Jazz clubs, Broadway shows, and bubbling nightlife. The rich sounds of old standards and great dancing will definitely bring your supper club themed wedding to life.
Supper Club Wedding Dance #1: Foxtrot
This is the most popular dance for weddings... period. If you were a professional wedding crasher (which sounds both cool and weird), you could make a career out of knowing the Foxtrot. It fits the old Standards the way the old Standards fit Frank Sinatra. Cruise the dance floor, show off both smooth and rhythmical movement, and set the tone for an eclectic evening.
Song Ideas
- How Are You Fixed For Love - Keely Smith and Frank Sinatra
- I Only Have Eyes For You - Carmen McRae
- More - Frank Sinatra & Count Basie
Supper Club Wedding Dance #2: Swing
Want to get the party going right from the first dance? The Swing is the way to go. Not only does this dance fit the theme, but the Swing is your all-purpose uptempo wedding reception dance. Nothing says "we are a fun couple" quite like a lively Swing as your first dance.
Song Ideas
- Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens - Louis Jordan
- It's Been a Long, Long, Time - Keely Smith
- Jump, Jive and Wail - Louis Prima
Supper Club Wedding Dance #3: Rumba
Here's the thing - Rumba is the perfect replacement for the "High School Bearhug" so it should be a popular option for any part of your wedding reception. Here are some swanky standards that you may not have realized are great first dance Rumbas.
Song Ideas
- Love Walked In - Dinah Washington
- Tea For Two - Sarah Vaughn
- The Girl From Ipanema - Frank Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim
