Who leads
Whoever hears the count more easily usually leads. You can also hand the lead over at the chorus so each bride gets a turn.
The dip in two dresses
The supporting bride needs a clear, wide stance, so we check where her skirt falls before choosing the dip. Keep it low the first few times, and test it in the real dresses or long practice skirts.
Song choice
Choose by tempo. A slow song suits bachata or a sway; a faster one suits a salsa turn. Then check that the lyrics fit the two of you.
Questions people ask
Can we both wear heels?
Yes. Practice in them so both of you know how they feel on the turn.
