First Dance Fun!

You’re getting married and the best day of your life is just months away! Now’s the time to get started on a wedding dance that will have your guests smiling for years to come when they think of you. That’s right! Gone are the days where you can get by with the 7th grade prom sway as your first dance. Enter creativity, excitement and tons of FUN on the dance floor. You’ve seen the youtube videos, now it’s your chance to add your personalities to a one-of-a-kind dance. With so many ways to WOW your friends and family, let’s focus on a few of the most popular ones to stimulate your imagination and get the ball rolling.

1. Anything goes!: From the Country Two Step to the Argentine Tango and Swing dancing to the Waltz, anything and everything is acceptable as a first wedding dance! Why not surprise your guests with a saucy Salsa dance or a rip-roarin’ Country Swing? All dances are fair game these days when it comes to giving your guests a dance to remember. The point? Fun, fun and more fun! An element of surprise will not only showcase your willingness to be playful with each other, but will also make your wedding stand out amongst all of your friends.

2. Involve your bridesmaids and groomsmen: A great way to show your love for your bridal party is by bringing them in on the action. Include them in your first dance as a way to spend extra time with them aside from the wedding day. A great way to do so is to choose a song that reminds you of great times together as friends. Maybe there was a vacation that you all took together or a song from High School that stood out. The perfect song will get everyone on board and excited to put on a mini “show” for the rest of your guests. Semi-private wedding dance lessons will bring your wedding party even closer together as you create memories that will last a lifetime. Plus, what better way can you think of to relax and unwind during all of the chaos of wedding planning, dress fittings, etc??

3. Go outside your comfort zone: Your wedding day may be the one and only time that you will be the center of attention amongst all of your friends and family. Have fun with this rare opportunity! Do a dance that you would never consider outside of your wedding. Even if you would prefer to stick with an elegant and simple first dance, push yourself to go beyond what everyone would expect. Include a few dips and turns that will be crowd-pleasing and great for those wedding dance snapshots.
