Etta James "At Last"

We have chosen 'At Last' for the first dance at our wedding but are clueless as to what type of dance would be appropriate. Waltz, Foxtrot??? Could anyone help. Thank you!

Andrea,
May be a little late but the answer to your question is Foxtrot. It does not have 3/4 timing necessary for Waltz.

I've taught social foxtrot to that song, and it works out well. It's essentially change steps on the line of dance, and a box turn in the corner, just like waltz. Except instead of all steady beats '1-2-3' like waltz, change the timing to slow-quick-quick. Slow being the forward or backward steps, quick quick being the side steps. Progressive twinkles work well, as does a lady's underarm turn in the corner.

Best wishes and congratulations on your upcoming marriage! Remember, the dance is NOT the most important part of the day - the "I do" is!
