The Ultimate Last Dance Playlist

Arguably, the song you choose to be played as the last song of your wedding reception is just as important as the first dance when you're planning your wedding playlist or music. The last song at a wedding party is going to create a lasting memory in your guests minds of your wedding party, and will ensure both you and your wedding guests leave on a real high. After the success of our First Song Playlist, we've pulled together our top choices for that all-important last dance. Expect to be daydreaming of dancing on shoulders, crowd-surfing and singing at the top of your lungs with arms draped around each other as we take you through our multi-genre playlist!
