WEDDINGS It wasn't so long ago that a
couple's first dance as man and wife, as special as
it was, was only a memory. With the home video, a
newlywed couple's first dance is almost always
recorded on tape, available down through the years
for all of posterity to see. That's why prospective brides
and grooms who want to give a polished and graceful
performance on the their big day are increasingly
opting to take dance lessons to help prepare for
what may be the performance of their
lifetimes. Here are a few
tips from the experts on learning to dance in
preparation for your wedding: Don't wait until the last
minute!!! Remember that your schedule will get very
hectic as your wedding day approaches. Dance
instructors recommend starting four to six months
earlier to allow more time for practice, especially
if you are a newcomer to dancing. Remember that dance lessons
can actually relieve stress. It is good exercise
and lessons pull you out of the day to spend an
hour or so with your intended, having fun and
working together. Besides the Waltz and other
traditional dances, Merengue, Salsa, Swing and even
the Hustle are all popular today. If you plan to
dance to a special song at your reception, feel
free to bring a recording of it to your lessons so
you can work on it with your instructor. (And don't
forget to coordinate with your wedding videographer
to the best "coverage" of your special dance.)
Learning to dance for your
wedding is a special gift that you and your
spouse-to-be can give to each other. Feeling
confident and poised when you dance together will
ensure that your very first dance as husband and
wife will be a memory you will cherish forever.
