Arizona Weddings that WOW!

/in /by

Arizona wedding dance lessonsWeddings have moved beyond tradition and become a VIP event where guests are guessing at what to expect. Some weddings are so well planned the guests are provided a printed list with a rundown of all of the evening’s activities! The last thing a bride and groom want for their big day is for their festivities to seem just like all other weddings. Creative ways are now needed more than ever to make each wedding event completely fresh and unique! For example, a customized wedding dance that will knock the socks off of your friends and family. Here are some planning tips to keep in mind when planning the wedding of the season:

Being open minded to new things. This is the best thing a wedding couple should do when it comes to making their wedding day one of a kind. Brides imagine a dream wedding, but may be stuck with an old fashioned vision of what a wedding is. This can be limiting and detrimental to imaginative new ideas.

Think about your guests! The best weddings are the ones which plan a great time for their loved ones who often scrimp, save and sacrifice in order to be a part of the wedding couples big day. The couples who find collaborative ways to celebrate the start of their lives together with everyone attending often create weddings that will be remembered for a long time. Things like adding a photo booth for the guests, lawn games, Pin the Wedding Outfit on the Bride and Groom, or asking each guest to share a photo or story about the couple on a giant board are just a few good ideas to keep guests socializing and having fun when the wedding couple is busy or when they need a break from the dance floor.

Add a wow factor to your wedding to kick off the reception with a first dance that your guests will not expect. The typical prom sway, moving around in circle, is old and boring, and your guests will not sit still for the 4 minutes that it will take. Starting with a classic and romantic wedding dance is a much better way to wow everyone and capture their attention! When you have a special dance choreographed for your personalities that expresses who you are as a couple,  your guests are sure to be blown away. This will even take your guests by surprise and pump them up for getting out on the dance floor themselves!

Wedding guests love knowing that the bride and groom took time to prepare activities that show you thought of them. Especially a first dance prepared for everyone to enjoy. If you are getting married, plan an event that sets your wedding apart from all others. Use your one-of-a-kind first dance to embrace each other while showing off a style and character off who you are as husband and wife. Start your lives together dancing, a skill you will utilize over and over.

First Dance Fun!

/in /by

wedding dance lessons for brides and grooms in ArizonaYou’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.

Many brides and grooms don’t do the dance of their dreams for one simple reason. They don’t know how to dance! Suddenly, the fear of learning to dance overrides the fun of it all. That’s where we come in! If you live in the Phoenix area, we can help you get ready for your special day with wedding dance lessons. Learning to dance for any occasion should be easy and exciting, not intimidating and dull. Here at Dance FX Studios in Mesa, AZ, we make dancing enjoyable! Get started with a Wedding Dance Consultation to see for yourselves that dancing on your wedding day can be a blast. Take a break from your wedding planning stresses and do something for each other that will help you to loosen up and breathe easy.

Make Your Wedding Day Special!

/in /by

couple dancing in ArizonaWeddings these days can be very mainstream and guests learn what to expect and know the rundown of activities. The last thing the bride wants is for her day to seem just like any other. Creative ways are needed to make each wedding feel completely fresh and new from all the others! Here are some planning tips to keep in mind when planning the wedding of the season.

1. Being open minded to new things is the best thing a bride can do when it comes to making her wedding day one of a kind. Brides have imagined the dream wedding, but being stuck to a certain vision can be limiting and detrimental to imaginative new ideas.

2. Also, remember your guests! The best weddings are the ones who plan around having a great time for the newlyweds and the loved ones around them. The couples that are looking to celebrate the start of their lives together with everyone around them are the weddings that will be remembered for a long time for all the right reasons. Try adding a photo booth for the guests to have fun with each other and use it also as the wedding favor for them to take home!

Adding lawn games like corn hole or giant jenga will also be a hit with those who are not so keen on dancing. Games will keep the little ones occupied too. Other fun games that can be added include the shoe questionnaire game. It is a great way for guests to know the couple on a new level. The couple has their own shoe in one hand and their spouse’s shoe in the other. The DJ asks a series of questions and whichever person fits it best, that’s the shoe they raise. It gives the crowd a chance to laugh and relax with the couple and then kick off the reception.

3. The ultimate way to add the WOW factor to your wedding is to kick off the reception with a first dance that your guests will not expect. The typical sway around in a circle is old and boring and guests will not sit still for the 4 minutes that it will take. Start with a classic and romantic dance that lets you and your new spouse enjoy dancing together and then, with a music change, blow your guests away with a side of you two that they haven’t seen before! This will take your guests by surprise and pump them up for getting on the dance floor. The first dance is used to embrace the couple’s fun character and start their lives together on the right foot. Guests love knowing that the bride and groom took time to prepare something for them to enjoy.

Start your first dance preparation with wedding dance lessons. If you reside in Arizona, Dance FX Studios specializes in helping brides and grooms make their first appearance on the dance floor the one that will be remembered and enjoyed. You can get started with a wedding dance consultation to help you decide what style of first dance that will help you two shine through. With our help, you will look amazing in no time!
