Who leads
We try the opening with each of you leading and keep the one that feels easier. Many brides trade the lead once during the song, which gives each of you a moment in front of your guests.
Dancing in two dresses
Two full skirts take up more room. We widen the hold slightly, keep the feet under the body and avoid steps that cross in front. If one of you has a train, we plan when to bustle it or how to hold it for the turn.
The dip
The partner with the steadier stance supports and the other is dipped. We practice it low first, then only as deep as both of you are comfortable with on the day.
- 3 lessons — $399 for the couple
- 6 lessons — $749 for the couple, includes a parent dance
Questions people ask
Do you work with two brides often?
All couples are welcome. You get the same lesson and the same price as any couple.
