Frequently Asked Questions

When should we begin lessons?
This is our most commonly asked question when speaking to newly engaged couples. The answer is different for every couple as every couple is unique! The 'sweet spot' for when to come in for your Wedding Dance Planning Session is at least 4 months out from your wedding date. Does that mean that you should wait until exactly 4 months until your wedding day? Absolutely not! Whether you like to plan way ahead and want to come in a year before your wedding or your dance is last on your to-do list and you come in a month before, we can help. We've worked with wedding couples (father/daughter, mother/son, bridal parties..etc.) with a limited timeframe and a longer timeframe. We can make your first dance a reality no matter what!
How many lessons do we need?
This question is incredibly unique for every couple. No two couples are the same, therefore we don't have a one-size fits all wedding package. We care about YOU and what YOU envision for your first dance. For the couples that want to learn how to move comfortably together but don't want anything fancy, we recommend one to five lessons. For the couples that want a more in-depth experience, we recommend more rather than less. The actual number of lessons will be determined by your full vision and schedules. 
Do you only work with brides and grooms?
Not at all! We work with many father/daughter and mother/son duos, bridal parties, and even wedding guests looking to move comfortably together. Don't be afraid to bring your ideas to one of our Wedding Dance Experts at your Wedding Dance Planning Session. Your Expert will be able to provide advice and recommendations for your vision.
​​WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR TO OUR LESSON?
Wear whatever you are most comfortable in! We ask you to wear shoes similar to or the exact shoes shoes you'll be wearing the day of your wedding to break them in and get comfortable moving in them. ​
HOW OFTEN SHOULD WE PRACTICE?
As often as possible! Your first dance is the only piece of your big day that requires muscle memory. We recommend small chunks of practice time: as little as 5 minutes to as many as 30 minutes. We are happy to make take-home videos for you following your private lesson so that you have a visual learning tool when you practice.
HOW DO I SHORTEN MY FIRST DANCE SONG?
We are more than happy to edit your song for you! In fact, this is such a common request from our wedding couples that many of our wedding packages include a song edit. Most songs are 4:00-5:00 minutes in length and for most first dance songs, we recommend 2:30-3:30 minutes.
