Amanda T: What TYPE of dance should be our first dance at our wedding?
My fiance and I already have a slow song picked out. We really don’t know much about dancing and don’t want to make a big deal out of learning extravagant dances. Just a simple elegant slow dance. For that and father/daughter, mother/son dance? We don’t know much about different types of dances.

A foxtrot or a waltz would be most appropriate for the type of song you want. If you have the time why not go along to a local dance school and take a couple of classes? You don’t have to sign up for lots of classes or spend a fortune, just one or two classes so you don’t feel like a goof on the dance floor.
