Weddings

It has become very popular to have dance lessons to make your first dance a memory that will last forever. All of our wedding dances are tailored to the song of your choice and created with both the input of your teacher and yourselves so that your dance is suited perfectly to you and your partner. The style of the dance is entirely your choice and we will always make sure it is in keeping with the song.

Some couples are looking for an extravegant routine to perform for their guests and others simply want a few steps to give them the confidence to get up on the floor and feel comfortable. There are many dances that you can chose from, some of the most popular for Wedding dances have been the American Smooth, the Rumba and the Waltz.

We specialise in both set choreographed routines in Ballroom and Latin dancing. You can either learn a set dance routine that is perfectly in sink with your song using a combination of Ballroom and Latin moves or you can learn a number of figures from one dance that you can lead and follow in your own sequence. Both options are great fun and can be as simple or complicated as you wish. Do not worry if you have never danced before or you think you have two left feet we promise we will have you out of doing the ‘wedding shuffle’ and looking good in no time!

Which Song do we choose?

Choosing your first dance song can be a difficult task so if you are struggling to chose then bring a few along with you to your first lesson and we will be more than happy to help. We will always choose a song that suits your style and personality, and if you have already decided on what dance you like then we will find a song to suit it. Some songs are obviously easier to dance to than others so if you have a song that is particularly slow or exceptionally fast then please bare in mind these may be more difficult to dance to.

If you have already chosen your song then please let us know before your first lesson so we can put some ideas together before you even arrive.

Please bring all possible songs or CD for your first lesson.

What Dance would we do?

Some of the most popular dances incorporated into wedding dance routines are the American smooth, waltz, rumba and rock ’n roll. Many people choose to amalgamate more than one dance to give more interesting moves and others choose to have one dance and keep it simple and classic. We have also choreographed routines to dirty dancing, Moulin Rouge and many more popular musical/film songs, so do let us know if you would like a big and fancy routine!

The choice of dance is always up to you and whatever style you choose we always make sure you both feel comfortable and we never teach you anything that would make you look silly. 

How Long Do We Need?

Lessons are booked per half an hour or hour appointments, usually booked weekly and it is entirely your choice how many lessons you have.

We always recommend starting your dance lessons sooner rather than later to allow yourselves time to remember and practise your moves. The more complicated you would like your routine to be the longer you may need to learn it so please bare this in mind when booking. We have however taught many people their dance in the week of their wedding and some even the day before! So do not worry if you think you have left it too late, there is always something we can do!

If you would like a set choreographed routine then we recommend you start your dance lessons 3-4 months prior to the wedding to give you ample time to practise and perfect your moves.
