FAQs About Wedding Dance Lessons
While planning your wedding day usually begins six months to a year in advance, please don’t underestimate that these lessons are a great way to have fun, relax and enjoy the time together all while learning how to dance. We don’t teach you A dance, we teach you HOW to dance. So you’ll have fun on your romantic honeymoon, social parties with friends and at any future events together as a couple.
How do we get started?
Your wedding dance lessons will begin with a free consultation. We’re more than happy to discuss your plans and learn about your dream dance. Feel free to bring your favorite songs, pictures of your wedding venue and wedding attire, and even examples of dance videos that you like.
Is there a “correct” type of first dance?
While there is a historically identifiable traditional style for the “first dance” in a wedding, the truth is that you can do whatever you want. A wedding is your day, and you should fill it with rituals and activities that are meaningful to you. If you are looking for a classically beautiful and romantic dance, go for it. If you and your future spouse would rather cut a rug to the Macarena, do it!
Can we get our wedding party involved?
More and more couples are including their wedding party in dance lessons – either to create a unique dance routine or make sure everyone will enjoy themselves. Learning to dance with your friends makes it more fun!
What should we wear for our lessons?
We realize that some Students arrive for lessons straight from the office, and others may be dressed more casually – either is fine. The most important thing is to wear something comfortable, which allows you to move easily. We also suggest leather-sole shoes for gentlemen, and a shoe with a back for ladies.
If you’ve already purchased your wedding shoes, we suggest you bring them along. Please note that athletic shoes do NOT work well on the ballroom dance floor because they stick.
Will our dancing be useful after the wedding?
Yes! Many of our clients begin as engaged couples and continue taking lessons for years to come. With this healthy and fun hobby, your love will be forever and your fun on the dance floor will be endless.
Congratulations!
