Wedding Dance

"Your professionalism was wonderfully calming for our nerves and your enthusiasm filled us with confidence" Julie and Blake.

How does the wedding dance work?

A couple’s first dance is usually performed between the speeches and the cutting of the cake. This is where you are officially introduced to your loved ones as husband and wife. It should be a special and enjoyable moment for both of you. Let our wedding specialist here at QuickSteps make your dream day complete

Do we have to do a Waltz?

Traditionally the first dance performed by newlyweds was always a waltz, making way for the common title: The ‘Bridal Waltz’. However, today the first dance can be anything from a tango or foxtrot to a rumba or rock ‘n roll. It’s your day it’s your choice.

Which style of dance is right for us?

There are a few elements that we take into consideration when deciding on a dance style:

· The speed and sound of your special song (the tempo and rhythm)

· The look and feel you are aiming for with your dance

· The size of your dance floor

Help! I don’t know which song to choose

Don’t panic! You’re not alone. Many couples have trouble deciding on a wedding song that is right for them. The good news is: We can teach you to dance to ANYTHING.

All you need to do is select a few favourite songs that you both enjoy listening to and leave the rest up to us.

Sit down together and have a look through your CD collection or iPod and make a list of songs that you both like. If you’d like some help you can bring your music to your complimentary lesson and your teacher can assist you in choosing the song from your collection that will be easy and fun to dance to.

What about our parents and bridal party?

You’ve finished your special dance and the applause has finally died down – what next? Why not plan something special for the bridal party or parents?

We can help you develop an exciting and memorable dance for your entire bridal party. Not only can a bridal party dance make your day that much more memorable, but the rehearsals are a great way for everyone to get to know each other. We even start the lessons with a glass of champagne to ease the nerves. Over a couple of easy lessons we can teach everyone a routine and you can finish off with a drink or bite to eat on the deck at the classy Oriental Hotel.

Will other people be watching me learn?

Unlike other dance studios, our lessons are strictly private. At QuickSteps we understand that you may be a little nervous when it comes to “stepping out” for the first time. No one wants an audience when they’re learning. At QuickSteps, it’s just you, your teacher and the music!
