At Westmor Ballroom in Los Angeles, we help couples turn those first steps onto the dance floor into a beautiful memory.

WHAT WE CHOREOGRAPH
Wedding First Dance Choreography Designed Just for You
No two love stories are alike, and your wedding first dance shouldn't be either.
Our professional ballroom dance instructors work with you to create custom wedding first dance choreography that reflects your personalities, complements your wedding song, and feels natural to perform.
Whether you envision a simple, graceful dance or a fully choreographed performance with memorable turns, dips, and a showstopping finish, we'll design a routine that suits your comfort level and wedding vision.
01
The First Dance
Three minutes your guests will hold their breath for.
A fully choreographed routine to the song you choose — built to your strengths, disguised to look effortless, and rehearsed until it feels like it was always inside you.
02
The Parent Dances
The quiet heart of the evening.
Father-daughter and mother-son dances composed with the same care as the first — tender, unhurried, and simple enough to dance with all eyes on you.
03
The Wedding Party
Your favorite people, moving as one.
From a graceful processional entrance to a show-stopping group number, we rehearse the entire wedding party until twelve left feet read as one production.
04
The Evening's Arc
Entrance to last dance, staged like a film.
Grand entrances, transitions between courses, the last dance of the night — we choreograph the moments between the moments so the whole evening moves like cinema.
Our goal isn't to turn you into professional dancers overnight. It's to help you look and feel like the best version of yourselves.

BEFORE THE BIG DAY
Frequently Asked Questions About Wedding Dance Lessons
Do we need dance experience to take wedding first dance lessons?

Can you choreograph a first dance to our wedding song?
Yes! We can create personalized first dance choreography based on your chosen wedding song, preferred dance style, and experience level.
When should we start taking wedding dance lessons?
Ideally, we recommend starting lessons two to three months before your wedding — however, we can also work with couples who have shorter timelines. We will use your time to help you learn your steps, build confidence, and enjoy the process.
What if we only want a simple first dance?
That's perfectly fine! Not every couple wants an elaborate performance. We can teach you a few beautiful, easy-to-follow movements that make your first dance look natural, elegant, and romantic.
Can we learn a wedding dance other than the Waltz?
Of course! Depending on your music and preferences, we can incorporate Foxtrot, Rumba, Salsa, Cha Cha, Swing, or a combination of dance styles into your first dance.

No previous dance experience is required—we’ll break the choreography into easy-to-learn steps so everyone can feel confident and have fun.
