FIRST DANCE TIPS
First, keep in mind: If you can walk, you can dance!
It’s a good idea to schedule your dance lessons at least 3 months before
the wedding. That gives you more scheduling flexibility but is still
close enough to the wedding that you won’t forget! Plan the final lesson to be
about a week or ten days before the wedding regardless, as a brush up. Planning ahead makes your life a lot easier, as the Big Day approaches. And Dancing is going to be a Life skill!
If you have your First song picked out before your first lesson, great.
But if you’re not sure about it, no problem. If you can bring in your top 2 or 3, or a short list of some sort, we can talk with you about them and help
you pick the best dance song.
A good wedding dance is around 2 ½-3 ½ minutes. You want to be able
to keep your guests engaged, and 3 to 3 and a half minutes is about as long as you can reasonably put a dance together in a relatively short period of time, (while you’re doing a
thousand other things!) You want it just right, not too long, not too short.
If you are doing a mashup or medley, be
sure to let me know the idea early on and have it edited by the halfway point
of the lessons. It’s important to have the final vision done with enough
time to nail it.
