Alright, I've got it figured out now. I've been torn on whether Cisco and Kamilla's first dance song for their wedding should be something slow and romantic or fast and peppy, and now I've got it, and this way it can be kind of both.
So it starts out with Winn on the piano, playing a soft, slow, wedding-ified version of Only One. (Can Winn actually play piano outside of Barry and Kara's musical dream? Don't know, don't care, he can now.) Cisco leads Kamilla onto the dance floor, doing that thing where they're holding hands and keeping a wide distance apart, and she walks in a big circle until she's standing right in front of him. Bart sings the first verse solo (I couldn't decide before if adult Bart and Nora should be at the wedding, but, well, looks like they are now). Cisco and Kamilla begin with a few basic ballroom dance steps. They both look a little tentative, but they get through it gracefully and without any missteps. It's a perfectly romantic moment, and it looks like it's gonna be a pretty standard first dance for them.
At the end of the first verse, Winn takes over for the last couple of lines (Kendall's part of the song). The nervous look on Cisco's face suddenly disappears. Holding Kamilla's gaze, he very slightly tilts his head forward in half a nod. Kamilla subtly nods back. They both grin, and as the chorus starts, several things happen at once: more instruments start playing, the tempo picks up as the bass drops, Barry takes the lead on vocals, and Cisco dramatically spins Kamilla out and they go full Fred and Ginger, to the surprise of several of their guests.
Iris's jaw is on the floor. Chester is losing his mind. Caitlin is beaming. She knew Cisco could dance because he's mentioned music being a big part of all Ramon family gatherings before, but she's never seen him do it when he wasn't goofing off. Barry of course knew what the plan was, but he's still thrilled to see it actually happening and to be a part of it. He takes his eyes off the happy twirling couple only long enough to direct the first half of the second verse to Iris, who smiles right back at him, and then he gets his head back in the game.
Why the heck it never occurred to me before that Barry should be singing at Cisco's wedding, idk, but he leads for the rest of the song, with Bart and Winn's voices harmonizing beautifully with his (and jumping into small solos where it makes sense for them to), and Cisco and Kamilla absolutely killing it on the dance floor, their eyes locked on each other the whole time.
