The Wedding Dance
Groom: C'mon, honey...It's time for our first dance
together as Mr. and Mrs. John Smith.
Bride: OK, but remember, you promised you'd help
me out with this.
Groom: I know...Hey, wait! This music is a lot faster
than I remember it!
Bride: Just fake it, and smile. You're the one that
wanted this song.
Groom: At least your dress is long enough to cover
up what your feet are doing! Let's just kiss a lot.
They love that.
Bride: (sniffing away tears)
Groom: Honey, you are so sweet! You're crying because
you're so happy!
Bride: No, John. I'm crying because you just stepped
on my foot!
DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU!
Now that you've made the decision to take the big
step, how about making another decision to take a
lot of smaller steps? Learn to dance for your wedding.
Plan to start soon. Allow yourself time to learn
at a relaxed pace. Start as early as possible. The
closer you get to your big day, the more hectic life
becomes. Dancing is not like an 8th grade social
studies quiz. You can't cram for it and expect good
results. You will want to look well rehearsed and
polished when you're out on the dance floor with
all eyes upon you.
Every aspect of your wedding is being mapped out
very carefully. The food, the gown, the music and
flowers all arranged in advance to give your special
day every chance of going smoothly. Will you be at
ease when you step out on the dance floor in front
of family and friends for your first dance together
as man and wife?
You’ve made a big investment in the food,
flowers, music, etc. These are things that only last
a day. Learning to dance is an investment in your
relationship. Its something you will continue to
share at every upcoming special occasion, and for
a lifetime of social pleasure together.
So many couples today are seizing the opportunity
to shine on the dance floor, personalizing their
celebration by learning to dance. For many couples
and their wedding guests the first dance is the highlight
of the reception, and what everyone remembers most
vividly.
Dancing with someone you love is one of life's
great pleasures. Find out for yourselves today!
