Looking for a song from the game suitable for a first dance

[Vidu]

Alright, I need some help!

My partner and I met playing this game and are currently planning our real life eternal bond ceremony (in other words: we're getting married). Since FFXIV holds a special place in our hearts we wanted to pick a song from the game for our first dance - and heres where we need some help: Neither of us is a good dancer, we'll take some lessons of course but those wont be able to correct my complete lack of sense of rythm (honestly, I'm unable to clap to a beat) or our general clumsiness.

So what we need is a song thats very simple to dance to; we were thinking of a waltz maybe? (Since thats supposed to be easy to learn/dance, right?) But we'd be open to other styles of dance as long as they're easy to learn (even for total beginners)!

We were hoping that some of you guys, who have a better understanding of how music and dances work, could maybe make some suggestions? (It would be helpful if you could mention what kind of dance would go with the song)
(I had identified "The hand that gives the rose" as some kind of waltz, but the "chanting" in the background is not ideal - thats as far as my ability to identify things in songs goes, though)

Thanks in advance!

FFXIV OST Eulmore Theme #1 ( Indulgence )

Music in the true Viennese tradition.

Congratulations to you both Vidu!

I second VeKallor's suggestion of Indulgence, although it's actually the second Eulmore day theme not the first (Pain and Pleasure is the original Eulmore day theme during Vauthry's reign).

Another suggestion could be the daytime theme for Old Sharlayan The Ewer Brimmeth, although that does have some distored lyrics by Amanda Achen taken from Flow, but it's a suitably slow and gentle piece perfect for a slow waltz.

Either way, congrats once again!

Yes, and she still hasn't answered my texts :v

Thanks for all the suggestions! I dont think we're skilled enough for a Flamenco, but the waltz-pieces sound lovely! I hadnt even thought about Eulmore, which only goes to show how deaf my music-ear is (as in: I enjoy the music greatly, but I'm not able to identify anything about it... been to Eulmore many times, never truely noticed its a waltz...)

I think the reason for that is because the music of Eulmore is more of a Ballroom dance such as a masquerade wherein multiple couples are engaged in the dance. I believe you're thinking about things more in line with just the two of you, and I think that is why The Hand That Gives a Rose resonates with you much more, despite the chanting. Ravana's theme is one that expresses a 'dance', or "Tango" as Ravana would put it between two powerful entities, and the music is composed in a way that reflects this. It is a fitting theme, considering the combative nature of FFXIV.

If looking for something more in line with two souls in harmony rather than combat, I'm thinking something like Born of the Boughs, which would be a simple and very wholesome tune to dance to.

I was also going to suggest the Eulmore waltz, and you could potentially use the night theme (or other variations on Tomorrow and Tomorrow) as well – instead, mixed together, or just elsewhere in the ceremony so you've got some continuity of using the same tune in different ways.
