Since we started working from home full-time, we’ve had ample time to stock our music playlists with catchy tunes, and basically turn our homes into our own personal concert halls… With wedding season fast approaching, we thought it’d be fun to share some of our favorite lovey-dovey songs that will turn your first dance into a cinematic masterpiece worthy of the best rom-coms!

A tune that takes its time, for the couple that likes to move at their own pace.
