How many wedding dance lessons do we need?
It depends on many things, such as your dance experience, the time you dedicate to practicing between lessons, and the complexity of your selected choreography.
If you are new to dancing, you should start three months before the big day and take at least 10 lessons. You can also learn some basic social dance steps, which will come in handy at the party as well.
What Shoes should I wear for my wedding dance lessons?
At the beginning you can wear something comfortable, just to get used to dancing and the moves. Make sure that the shoes you are wearing during the lessons are securely attached to your feet, avoid wearing shoes with an open back or sandals.
Later, it is recommended to switch to shoes with small heels, which will help you to make spins and turns easier, and feel similar to your wedding shoes.
For the last few dance lessons you should wear your actual wedding shoes, to get used to them and to break them in.
If you are planning to wear high heel shoes at your wedding, please be very careful during the lessons and at your wedding as well!
How long should my wedding dance last?
We recommend keeping the length of your wedding dance under 2.5 minutes. Longer shows are harder to learn, practice and remember, and it may become boring for the audience as well.
Your first dance should be between 2 to 2.5 minutes long, which is perfect for most occasions.
If the music you select is longer than that, we can create a shorter version for you, or you can ask the DJ to fade out the song.
Which song should I choose for my wedding dance?
Your wedding dance music should relate to you, and of course it has to be danceable. The perfect wedding dance show should be personal and meaningful. If you are uncertain about which song you should select for your first dance together, ask your wedding dance instructor, he will be more than happy to help you to choose!
What information should I provide for my dance instructor about my wedding dance?
To design and plan the perfect wedding dance show, you should tell everything about the event to your instructor at the beginning.
How big is the room? Where will the guest be watching you from? How many guests will attend your wedding dance? How will the bride wear her hair? What wedding dress, clothes and shoes will you wear? What type of floor will you be dancing on? Is it going to be live music or a DJ? The more information you share with your wedding dance instructor, the better he can plan your first dance.
Do we have to cut the music for our wedding dance?
At MI Fiesta Dance Studio the instructor will prepare the wedding dance music for you, it is included in the price.

Should we learn a dance routine for our wedding?
We recommend learning a wedding dance choreography, since it is easier and takes less time, than learning how to lead and follow, and “just dance for a while”. Also, the routine looks better, because it is designed for the music selected.
Should the bride or the groom attend extra dance lessons alone?
When one of you dances a lot better than the other, it might be a good idea for the other to take some extra dance lessons to catch up a bit.
Is there any other way to practice our wedding dance?
MI Fiesta Dance Studio has a party each month, which you can attend and dance in front of other people. This is a perfect dress rehearsal, and you can get used to dancing in a realistic environment and find out if something is no
