It’s the most wonderful time of the year. No, we haven’t gotten the calendar mixed up here at Fred Astaire Dance Studios. We know it’s spring instead of Christmas, but it’s still a most wonderful time of the year… for a wedding! Yes, it’s what’s fondly known as “wedding season.” According to Brides magazine, wedding venues definitely have a peak wedding season and a low season. In general, the wedding season months begin in the late spring and continue through early fall, with weddings peaking in June and September.

Here at Fred Astaire Dance Studios, we know how important — and maybe frightening — that first dance can be for the bride and groom. All eyes will be centered on you as you step out on the floor for your first dance as husband and wife. To help ease the anxiety, we created a special Wedding Dance Instruction Program. Fred Astaire Dance Studios have helped countless couples overcome their concerns about dancing in the spotlight. But while the spotlight shines brightest on the bride and groom, they are by no means the only ones on display on that magical day.

At most weddings, the bride and groom eventually share the spotlight with other members of the wedding party; particularly the parents of the happy couple and even the bridesmaids and groomsmen. The exclusive Wedding Dance Instruction Program at Fred Astaire Dance Studios is not just for the bride and groom: it’s for the whole wedding party too! In just a short amount of time, our certified dance instructors can help you learn a few basic steps that will help you take the floor with confidence and style.

Pre-wedding planning can turn even the calmest person into a nervous wreck. Wedding party group lessons are a great way to bring the entire wedding party together to relax and release a little tension. Future in-laws can get to know one another in a fun, relaxed setting. Knowing that you can step out onto the dance floor with confidence and grace can help soothe frayed nerves on the big day and turn your anxiety into anticipation.

Maybe you’ve already got the steps down, but you really want to put on a big show for your guests? Your Fred Astaire Dance Studios expert can choreograph dances for the entire wedding party, turning your reception into a YouTube-worthy event that family and friends won’t soon forget. Wedding party dance lessons are not only fun and relaxing, they also make a great engagement gift or a wonderful “thank you” for your parents’ help with the big day.

So, whether you’re the bride, the groom, or the father and mother of the bride or groom, let Fred Astaire Dance Studios make your special day shine. Come by and visit one of our convenient studio locations and find out just how easy it is to dance like a pro.
