I can wiggle my hips a bit, but not sure that is going to suffice for the wedding first dance.

I have six months - do I take lessons to wow the crowd? Or do I stand on my newly-weds toes?

Did you do either?

I have been "blackmailed" into dance lessons by Mrs D. You must remember the golden rule...............never, ever, under any circumstances admit that you might actually be enjoying them!

Works out quite well, she gets to go dancing, I get to have a few beers and Mrs D insists on driving home as "it is least I can do as I know you are here under sufferance"

Do you even want to do a first dance ?
Some people do, some people don't - it's your wedding so don't feel obliged, if you don't want to do it.

- if you take some dance lessons, do a simple routine well, rather than a complicated one badly
- don't just put your arms around each other and slow dance whilst mouthing the words to the song

Personally I would go and get some dance lessons, as it's always nice to be able to do a bit of formal dancing, even if you don't do an official 'first dance'.

Would quite like to. And I agree a well routined simple dance should suffice.

Still need to choose the song....
