The four mistakes
Watch for these.
- New shoes: slippery soles and tight heels on the day
- Too many moves: more to forget when nerves hit
- A song that is too long: guests drift after about 90 seconds
- A dip you never practiced: the riskiest move to improvise
The fixes
Practice in the reception shoes, keep to a few moves, ask the DJ for an edit, and rehearse one dip until it feels steady. That covers almost everything that goes wrong.
Questions people ask
What if we forget a step on the day?
Go back to the basic step and smile. Guests rarely notice.
