The influence of TV programmes such as Strictly Come Dancing appears to have inspired brides and grooms who are taking the first dance very seriously indeed.

London UK, January 29, 2010 -- Wedding bands in London and the rest of the south of England in particular are surprisingly a close knit community with many amateur and professional musicians knowing of each others work and style. When paths meet musicians like to talk about current trends and compare playlists and evesdropping on such meetings provide a very interesting insight into the working musicians life.

The main subject coming up for discussion at the moment on the London wedding band grape vine is the first dance! Since You tube has become a worldwide phenomenon it has changed how a bride and groom approach their first dance! For years they would take to the floor, slightly reluctantly, slightly self consciously and do a desultory shuffle around the floor for two and a half minutes whilst their guests looked on in a bored manner wishing they hadn't been dragged away from the bar.

Not now! Now the bride and groom spend weeks in a sweaty London dance studio being drilled by a bossy dance coach who puts them through a series of ever increasingly complicated moves. Come the night of the dance they are pumped up like Olympic athletes, some slightly the worse for drink. Focused and ready to compete, they take up position, usually at opposite diagonal corners of the room, the London wedding band poised. The crowd circle round the participants, camcorders and mobile phones at the ready and then the fun begins.

Ask any musician who plays in a wedding band in London and they will tell you that the opportunity for amusement has increased tenfold since the start of the You tube revolution. “The desultory shuffle had little to offer” Jeff Williams remarks “Now we have these big production numbers it is hard to keep your eyes on the music because you want to see the action so much! Some of the routines are flawless, shame, but some of them go awry and get out of hand. These are the ones the wedding band enjoys! “Its like the early rounds of Strictly Come Dancing” says Jeff, before too much practice and training has been achieved. Long may it last.
