A Few Ways to Personalize a First Dance Song

"Personalized first dance song" can mean a few different things:

  • A lyric print or soundwave art — a song turned into wall art.
  • A custom or personalized song — a brand new song, written and composed from scratch. (These two terms mean the same thing.)
  • A first dance lyric change — SongRetold's specialty, and what this page is about: keep the exact song you already love — melody, arrangement, and the original artist's voice — and only the lyrics become yours.
