That's the song to which we danced to.

Is the final (to) considered as bad grammar? Or is it acceptable ?

@papadoi1,
The final to is superfluous, so i suppose it's bad grammar.

All you need write is: That's the song to which we danced.

That's the restaurant at which we ate.

That's the church in which we were married.

Get it?

Eliminate one "to" and your sentence will be fine. For example, you can either write "That's the song to which we danced" or "That's the song we danced to".

I suppose it's not correct.
You can say ''That's the song to which we danced. '' or '' That's the song which we danced to. ''
