Arthur Murray Dance Center- Your Wedding Specialists

 

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! If you want to do more than sway back and forth on your big day, you’ve come to the right place. Whether you’re dreaming of a classic waltz, a kickin’ country two-step, a dramatic tango or something else entirely, we’ve got you covered. Our certified instructors will help turn your first dance into an experience you’ll never forget! Want to really wow the crowd? Consider adding on some lessons for mother-son, daddy-daughter, bridal party or general dancing for the reception. No need to decide now. We can discuss your vision during your NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION which includes a consultation and introductory lesson for just $29.

 

Things to think about:

 

• Do you want a traditional dance or the next YouTube sensation?

• What type of music are you going to have at the wedding?

• Will there be dancing opportunities during the honeymoon?

• Will there be any other spotlight dances? (Daddy/Daughter, Mother/Son, etc)

• Have you picked a song for your first dance?

• Will your dress, suit or shoes limit your movement in any way?

 

WEDDING DANCE FAQs

​

Will you teach us choreography or just to dance in general?

We can do either. During your first visit we will discuss which direction to take your program. We will make recommendations based on the information you provide but ultimately the choice is yours!

​

What if we haven't picked out a song yet?

Not a problem at all! We will introduce you to multiple dance styles on your first visit. From there, we can make some recommendations based on which styles you prefer and your taste in music.

​

How far in advance should we start our lessons?

The short answer is the sooner, the better. When you come in for your New Student Orientation we will work with you to build a program that suits your dance goals and wedding budget. This should be done as soon as possible, even if your wedding is still a year or more away. This will allow us the opportunity to be able to plan the perfect program for you, even if you're not planning to start your lessons right away. Generally speaking, we recommend 3-6 months for a basic first dance and 6-12 months for more complex choreography or add-ons like general dancing or more than one routine. Have less than three months left before your wedding? Don’t worry, we can still put something together for you to make sure you feel confident on the dance floor. 

​

What should we bring to our consultation?

Song ideas (first dance, additional dances, etc.), shoes similar to those you’ll be wearing on the big day, information regarding your dance floor (type of surface, approximate size, layout, etc.), an idea of your wedding dance budget. If you’re missing some of this information right now, it is not an issue. Just bring what you have and we’ll help you with the rest.
