Wedding bells, dancing, and music!

So, you’re getting married soon. How exciting for you and your loved ones! This is one of the happiest days of your life and you have so many ideas about the wedding that you can’t wait to get started. There is so much to plan and prepare for that it can sometimes become a little overwhelming. You know all the things you need to take care of to make this your perfect day. However, there may be one thing you haven’t considered. Are you ready for your first dance? What about after the first dance? Will you be prepared to celebrate and dance the night away?

Well, DanceFX Studios is here to help you make the most of your special day. Whether you want your reception to be playful, traditional, or romantic, we can choreograph an awesome first dance that will really wow your family and friends! 

To get you started, we suggest you come in for a wedding consultation, at least 4-6 months before the wedding. For only $20, you will meet with our wedding consultant who will gather some information about you and your vision for the wedding, as well as a dance lesson, in order to create a program that is customized just for you.

Another aspect you may want to consider is the type of music and dancing you want at your reception. Do you prefer something more traditional? We can definitely gear your lessons towards that goal, learning dances like the waltz and fox trot. With songs like “At Last”, “It Had To Be You”, and “I Could Write a Book”, you will be well on your way to making your first dance classic and memorable.

Maybe you lean more towards something hot and spicy and love Latin dancing. No problem, we can teach you dances such as the salsa, merengue, or bachata so that your first dance will be as saucy as you envision. You’ll get the skills you need to really shake it up on the dance floor, blow your guests away, and truly make an impression!

Let’s not forget about a Country theme. Country dancing is especially popular here in AZ. You’ll learn dances like the AZ two-step and Country swing to kick up your heels and make everyone take notice! Some of the songs you may want to consider are “Making Memories”, “Love Like Crazy”, and “She’s Everything”.  Learn to twist, turn and twirl your way dancing your first dance and throughout the entire evening.

What if you prefer a more romantic theme? That is absolutely doable! We’ll get you ready with the Argentine tango and night club two-step. It’s a great way for the two of you to get away from all wedding stress and totally connect with each other. This way when you and your sweetie are out there on the dance floor, there will be no doubt that you are competent and passionate dancers. After watching you, it will inspire all your guests to get out there and dance!

Dance FX Studios has choreographed thousands of first dances for wedding couples. From simple to elegant, playful or traditional, we can definitely prepare you for the big day.  Not only do we get the bride and groom ready for the wedding, we also teach the parents, so that when that special moment comes to dance with their son or daughter, they will also be skilled and confident for this dance and for the entire night. Private dance lessons for moms and dads are also a perfect way for them to spend a little time reconnecting with each other. 

What about the bridal party? Dance lessons for bridesmaids, groomsmen and even extended family members are a great way to de-stress from all the wedding plans and enjoy this special time in your lives together. Creating your own class is the perfect way to get everyone all set with customized lessons that will make the whole party look fabulous!

And keep in mind, continuing with dance lessons after the wedding is a great way for the newlyweds to keep that passion alive! Instead of the usual nights out going to dinner or the movies, why not keep dancing? Dancing is one of the most romantic ways to enrich your relationship as it brings together the mind, body and soul. It’s also beneficial for anyone involved in the wedding to continue with their own private lessons, since these are skills you will use for any social event throughout your lifetime. 

Dance FX Studios is available for wedding consultations and private dance lessons throughout the week, Monday-Friday, from 12-8 pm and Saturdays, from 11 am-4 pm. We are conveniently located in the East Valley at 1859 W. Guadalupe Rd, in Mesa, AZ, just minutes from Chandler, Tempe, Gilbert, Phoenix, and Scottsdale.
