Wedding Dance Mashup to Wow Your Guests
Want to surprise your guests with a unique and unforgettable first dance? Be like Joel & Angie! They wanted to add excitement to their wedding and couldn’t decide on just one song—so we helped them create an epic wedding dance mashup.
Is a Wedding Dance Mashup Right for You?
Before diving in, consider these key factors:
✅ Does your partner want to dance for 5 minutes?
A reluctant partner can make the experience stressful instead of fun. We make learning easy and enjoyable, but it’s important that both of you are on board!
✅ Do you have your mashup songs chosen?
If not, we can help with recommendations. You’ll also need a DJ to mix your songs—or we can do it for you as an added service.
✅ Do you have enough time?
Creating a seamless mashup dance takes time! Our choreographers need around 15 hours to design and break down the moves for your selected songs before teaching them to you.
At Dance Amor Weddings, we make sure our couples look natural, confident, and effortless on the dance floor—wowing their guests with every step!

How Long Should Your Wedding Dance Be?
We usually recommend 1.5 to 2 minutes (around 16 lessons) of simple, elegant choreography to keep it short, sweet, and engaging.
Why? Because:
- Not every partner is keen on dancing—keeping it short makes it more enjoyable.
- Guests have short attention spans (think about how quickly you swipe through TikTok videos!).
- A structured routine prevents repetitive, awkward movements that lose audience interest.
That’s the sweet spot to impress your guests without dragging out the performance. Plus, once the dance floor opens up, you’ll look like dance pros compared to your guests joining in!
Planning a Wedding Dance Mashup? Here’s What We Recommend:
For a wedding dance mashup, we suggest 19+ hours of lessons:
🎯 Start at least 3 months before your wedding—ideally 6-12 months in advance.
⏳ Leaving it to the last minute = unnecessary stress!
Joel & Angie’s Wedding Dance Success Story
💍 Their Challenge:
Joel & Angie came to us on 9th January 2018, with less than a month before their wedding! They had a 8-minute mashup, later cut down to under 5 minutes, featuring:
🎵 Thinking Out Loud – Ed Sheeran
🎵 Thriller – Michael Jackson
🎵 Greased Lightning – Grease
🎵 Gangnam Style – PSY
🎵 YMCA – Village People
🎵 Oops!… I Did It Again – Britney Spears
⏳ Their Training Schedule:
📅 Week 1: 3 lessons per day, 3 days = 9 lessons
📅 Week 2: Work conflicts, so 2 days of Wedding Dance Bootcamp = 10 lessons
📅 Week 3: Cleanup & natural flow, 3 days x 2 lessons = 6 lessons
📅 Week 4: Final refinements, confidence-building = 2 lessons
💪 Total: 26 lessons (19.5 hours of training) in just under a month!
They even practiced in parking lots between work shifts—proving that with the right mindset, anything is possible!
