~ Book your lessons for your first wedding dance as soon as you can! The sooner you start your lessons the more comfortable you will be for the big day. If you want your song choreographed, start at least 3-5 months in advance.

~Have an idea how you want you first dance to feel; fast, fun, upbeat, slow, romantic, passionate…

~ For music selection, pick a few favorite songs to bring to your lesson. That way your teacher can help you with what dance would work best for the two of you. If your hearts are set on one song already, that is great too. If you haven’t chosen a song, we can definitely help you with your selection of music.

~Decide if you want to do more dancing than your “first dance.” Examples: Father Daughter, Wedding Party, or dancing for the rest of the evening.

~ Brides make sure that you bring the shoes that you’re planning to wear. That way you can test them out to see if they will work ahead of time.

~Have an idea of how big your floor is going to be.

~ Brides if you have a dress with a big hoop skirt, feel free to bring the hoop to practice in.
