Our couples love us because of our knowledge and experience with many different music genres. It's natural for Indian wedding couples to seek our advice on what would be the best fit for them for all of the key wedding moments. Half of the Indian weddings we DJ are with both the bride and groom being of South Asian descent (Hindu, Christian or Muslim). The other half of the weddings we do are mixed or fusion weddings where one person is from South Asian descent and the other is not (White, Black, Hispanic or Asian).
Thousands of couples have trusted us with the biggest and best days of their lives. We wanted to figure out a way to help couples during various parts of their journey from getting engaged to being married, so we started this blog to help all couples plan their special day.
When coming up with the Top 9 Indian Wedding First Dance Songs 2025 we based it on the following:
- These are relatively newer songs. Many couples want something their friends or family haven't used.
- We kept a romantic first dance in mind. It's always fun if you add on an upbeat dance song at the end.
- Focus on listening to the song and not watching the video. Don't overlook the perfect song because you don't like the video. No one will see the video, they will all be watching you.

The Top 9 Indian Wedding First Dance Songs 2025 list begins with a song that truly deserves to be number one. Love this collaboration by these artists!

2) Soulmate - Arijit Singh & Badshah
Arijit's voice just hits different. This is a really sweet song and works well for a first dance. Couples usually play the first part and end it before Badshah starts singing.

Does anyone else sing love songs in Bollywood any more? I promise he is not paying us to pick his songs. He's just that good. Check out this link on Spotify if you want to hear some recent Bollywood love songs.
5) Dekhha Tenu - Mohammad Faiz
No we didn't spell Arijit Singh's name wrong. This is the first Indian song on our list that is sung by someone else. Mohammad Faiz is the singer and he did a good job. The hook of this is taken from a small part of "Say Shava Shava". DM us on Instagram and tell us which movie you like better, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham or Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. You can't say both.
6) A Whole New World - ZAYN & Zhavia Ward
This is Zayn & Zhavia's rendition of this classic song. They did a great job. This is the perfect choice for a couple that are Disney fans. If you are going to use this song, then make sure you get special effects. This will look perfect with Dancing on a Cloud and Indoor Fireworks.
7) Sahiba - Jasleen Royal & Stebin Ben
Jasleen Royal keeps coming up with tracks that work perfectly at weddings. This song is great for first dances at Indian weddings. Check out this link if you like her voice and are looking for a bridal entrance song for your ceremony.
8) Raataan Lambiyan - Jubin Nautiyal & Asees Kaur
Raataan Lambiyan claimed the eighth spot on The Top 9 Indian Wedding First Dance Songs 2025 list. If this list came out a few years ago, it would have likely been number 1! This is a great songs and works well for first dances. Share this link with your engaged friends.
9) Ranjha (Sid x Kiara Version) - Jasleen, Prerna, & Ashwani
Top 9 Indian Wedding First Dance Songs 2025 list ends with a story. Jasleen Royal originally made this song for a movie that featured Sidharth Malhotra & Kiara Advani. The original version sounds amazing but the lyrcis are sad. When the couple got married in real life, they had their amazing wedding videographer ( The Wedding Filmer) remake the song in a happy version. Prerna Arora & Ashwani Basoya came together to sing this version for the couple and then eventually the world.
