Put on your dancing shoes! How long will your first dance be? Are you going to enjoy every minute and dance for the full length of the song? Or are you cutting it down and fading out the song early?

I think we are doing the full song but i'm not sure yet. My friend (one of my bridesmaids) and her husband said they would choreograph it.

Short. We don’t enjoy being the center of attention. I would like for our families and friends to join us.

Short, in the sense that we'll probably ask our parents to join us near the end of the song.

The length of a song is short 5 minutes usually unless its been modified to go longer and mixed with other songs. That makes the difference for the couple of how they choose to do the first dance or add the entertainment part of it.
We had one song only and that was short. Plus another song for Mother/Son dance that was short too.
