TOP 10 Polish first dance songs 2023

A wedding celebration usually opens with the newlyweds’ first dance. This special moment celebrates the marriage — and it is also a real highlight for the guests. That is why future spouses pay close attention to preparing a dance routine matched to a song that brings back positive memories.

The choice is hard — there are so many beautiful songs, and for the first dance we usually pick only one. How do you decide?

Below we present our top 10 first-dance songs. We hope this list will help you make that tough decision.

What to look for when choosing a first-dance song?

To make choosing the ideal first-dance track easier, we have divided the most popular Polish songs into romantic ones and ones that are a little more energetic.

Under a short description of each, you will find a choreography prepared by Ania and Mateusz from Dance From Home. If one of them catches your eye, you will find an online first-dance course on our site that lets you learn the routine step by step without leaving home.

Romantic and calm songs for the first dance

What kind of music do today’s couples step onto the floor to? Calm, romantic tracks clearly lead the way. Not because the choreography for them is easier to learn. It is more about the dose of romance that flows straight from some of the songs on this list. If instead of emotions and tears of joy you want to pull your guests onto the floor from the very first dance — go for something from the energetic set.

Here are a few popular, calm tracks you might like:

1. Wyglądasz tak pięknie – Sobel

This is an ideal melody for the first dance. Light, romantic, and at the same time full of hope and love hanging in the air.

We based the choreography for this track on basic party dance and Viennese waltz.

2. A Ty Bądź – Luka Rosi (The Dziemians)

This is a beautiful, romantic love song that can bring tears even to the toughest of us — and The Dziemians’ cover takes the romance to a whole new level. The choreography we prepared is easy to learn and based on striking Brazilian zouk.

Most disco polo fans know this song in its upbeat version. There is also Luka Rosi’s ballad version, though — and if you love that genre, it would be a shame not to choose it for the first dance.

3. Nic dwa razy – Sanah

Sanah is an artist whose songs enjoy huge popularity on our top 10 first-dance lists. Nic dwa razy — whose lyrics are, of course, a poem by our Nobel laureate Wisława Szymborska — is one of them.

A romantic mood combined with a gently flowing melody means more and more couples take to the floor to this song, thinking about a love like theirs — one that does not happen twice.

Here is the track with an easy-to-learn choreography based on English waltz and party dance.

4. Kiedy tylko spojrzę – Sylwia Grzeszczak

Time for another Polish vocalist who can move you to tears. Choosing the choreography created for this melody, you can count on tears appearing in your loved ones’ eyes as well.

Take a look at the routine with elements of highly sensual Brazilian zouk.

5. Tak wiele znaczysz – Marcin Kłosowski

Tak wiele znaczysz is another pick in our top 10 first-dance songs. It will be ideal for couples who want to whirl across the floor to a romantic melody.

It is a new, very positive love song that can steal your heart from the first words — practically perfect for the first dance. The striking choreography is based on Viennese waltz.

6. Przetańczyć z Tobą chcę – Anna Jantar

Time for a true classic — Moje jedyne marzenie. Anna Jantar’s song, better known as Przetańczyć z Tobą chcę. It may be hard to believe, but this track was recorded in the 1970s. Who knows — maybe your parents swayed to this melody at their own wedding?

You can listen to the song below, enriched with a beautiful romantic choreography based on Viennese waltz.

Not too slow, not too fast — an energetic first dance

Looking for a track that is romantic but not too slow? Luckily, our top 10 first-dance songs also include melodies that are light and pleasant, with a positive, energetic touch. Get to know them and pick something for yourselves.

7. Na chwilę – Hyży

To open this set, something special — Na chwilę by Grzegorz Hyży. This is a track for those who want their first dance to be truly spectacular.

If you dream of a choreography that pairs better with spark fountains than with heavy fog, this song will be perfect. The choreography’s main theme — disco samba.

8. Wszystko mi mówi, że mnie ktoś pokochał – Sanah

Who does not know Skaldowie’s lively song? And what if you could dance your wedding first dance to that exceptionally energetic track? Luckily, Sanah took care of that. She created a calmer melody while keeping its unique atmosphere.

What is more, you can dance our simple, romantic choreography to both the Skaldowie version and Sanah’s.

9. Tylko ty, tylko ja – Krzysztof Krawczyk

Looking for something timeless? Tylko Ty, tylko ja is a special track — there is hardly anyone who does not know this melody. It works perfectly for those looking for a lively, joyful choreography.

The one we propose is a mix of party dance and sensual bachata. Do not worry if you are hearing that name for the first time — in the course you get a free mini bachata course from scratch, made for people who have never danced this style.

10. Szary świat – sanah i Kwiat Jabłoni

Is there a better song to dance to than one that is actually about dancing? About love, sensual, pleasant — that is Szary świat. Do not let the title fool you; it is an incredibly positive track.

The choreography is based on party dance with elements of polka.
