Coffee Shop to Renaissance City
Their journey began in Stamford, Connecticut, in 2019. At a local coffee shop, over a shared caffeine dream, William, a talented software developer, met Claire, a passionate teacher, and their story began to unfold. Now calling New York their home, the couple chose the enchanting setting of Florence for their September 2024 wedding, bringing their American love story to the heart of Renaissance Italy.
The Vision
When Claire and William reached out to us through an online wedding portal about their celebration in Florence, they embraced the idea of making their first dance truly unique. Beyond booking The Gloves for their wedding, they were excited about having a custom-composed first dance song that would capture their essence. The American couple's decision to celebrate their love in the cradle of Renaissance would be made even more special with this personal musical gift.
The Creative Process
In our production studio, the composition began taking shape. The melody emerged naturally, inspired by their unique story - bright and modern, yet intimate and personal. We crafted layers of synth melodies and drum machine beats, combining auto-tuned vocals with major key harmonies, all supporting the heartfelt lyrics that tell their story.
From concept to completion, every detail was carefully considered. The production process focused on creating an upbeat pop sound that would fill the wedding venue while maintaining the intimate feeling of a personal love letter set to music.

The Wedding Day
As September painted Florence in late summer colors, the moment finally arrived. When the first notes filled the air during their first dance, the bright synth melodies perfectly captured their New York energy. The song told their story - from their first meeting over coffee in Stamford to their shared life in the big city, from lesson plans to lines of code.
The intimate bridge section created a magical atmosphere in the room, with guests falling silent to witness this unique expression of love. As the final chorus swelled with its energetic and catchy rhythm, there wasn't a dry eye in the house. After the dance, guests approached the couple throughout the evening, moved by how perfectly the song captured Claire and William's journey.
Creating custom wedding songs is more than just composing music - it's about capturing love stories in melodies, turning emotions into harmonies, and creating moments that will be remembered forever. Claire and William's story is just one of many we're honored to be part of, each unique and special in its own way.
