Taking professional dance lessons means that if either you or your partner are not particularly confident dancers, you should feel more comfortable when the time comes to hit the floor.

If a ‘bridal waltz’ isn’t quite your thing, spend a little time choosing a dance style is which more unique or funky. It may be a slow, rhythmic tango, or something more upbeat. Then remember to practise, practise, practise.

On the day you will need to let your DJ know when is the perfect time to cue your song, or if you have hired a band for your wedding, ensure that you are comfortable dancing to their version of your favourite song. Otherwise, simply dance to the pre-recorded track that you have practised with.
