Please help us! We are getting married in June and do not want to do the traditional Bridal Waltz or even slow dance.
We really want our first dance to be "Best years of our lives" by the Baha Men but we need to learn a suitable dance to go with that song.
Are there any dancers out there who can help us? We'd really appreciate it :)

Laura and Scott: My suggrestion is to do a West Coast Swing East Coast Swing combination. The song is very peppy and fun and the dances can be intermixed easily. A few basic patterns in both will get you through the song without too much repetition. More importantly,because you are under a time crunch what with all the wedding preparations and such, you wont have to spend an inordinate amount of time mastering the few basic patterns necessary.

The version of this song I'm hearing is from their album titled "Greatest Movie Hits". If this is the right song, it has a strong down beat and a "carribean feel". I'd suggest a merengue. It's the easiest dance of all since the only way to make a mistake is if you stop moving.

Merengue pulls its steps from a variety of dances, so you can really mix things up in this dance. Have an instructor show you a bunch of elements, and choose your favorites.

Good luck, it sounds like a really fun song.
