Don't leave your First Dance to chance...
AWARD WINNER (1X)
Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
You have put so much effort into perfecting every detail of your big day, so why leave the dance to chance? We believe that a first dance should not be "one size fits all," but should instead be as unique as the couple dancing it. Let us help you to make your first dance meaningful and memorable.

I definitely recommend going to Wanda for dance lessons. She was very sweet and hyped us up! Everyone loved the first dance. The only thing, which is so small, is that she never seemed to remember who we were or what we had done the time before and the music was wrong. So just seemed like she had a lot on her plate. But again, soooo small. She was honestly amazing and nice and talented. Knew what she was talking about.

Wanda is amazing. Dance class was the best part in the wedding planning. Wanda made my fiancé enjoy every class and kept him motivated. She kept the class simple and fun. Everyone was impressed with our first dance. Wanda made our first dance a success. I recommend her. I am glad that we chose her.

From the moment we stepped into the studio, our teacher, Liv, was so welcoming! She was great with communicating in-person, via phone, and even via text! We are so happy we took the handful of lessons we could with her, as she helped us craft the first dance of our dreams. Liv was patient with us throughout the whole process, giving us ideas and slowly building on more steps and elements to make the dance unique and the right fit for us. She gave our special song a whole new meaning. We will forever cherish the laughs we had with her and on our Big Day (with cheers from our friends and family in the background). Looking forward to revisiting the studio to learn more from Liv and the rest of the dedicated Wanda Deagen team!

I am so happy we found this studio! My husband and I are not people who typically like to be in the spotlight, so we were very nervous about our first dance. Liv was fantastic and really helped us feel confident going into our dance. They are also extremely affordable compared to other dance studios in the area. I'm very grateful we found them!

My husband and I cannot express how happy we are to have found this studio and our dance instructor, Stephanie. We both love country music and chose a country band for our wedding, but we're hesitant at first because we did not know the basic dance steps. Stephanie went above and beyond to show us the basics but also choreographed my dance with my dad, my husband, and my husband and his mom's first dance. Stephanie is professional, makes dancing lots of fun, and gives you confidence on your big day! She made me feel like I had been dancing all my life.

I was skeptical because the location, but once you are inside everyone is warm and welcoming. Olivia helped my husband and I with our first dance and it turned out beautifully. My husband is shy and uncoordinated, but by the end of our lessons he actually enjoys dancing and feels more confident. Everyone loved our dance, and I recommend to anyone!

I just wanted to send a huge thank you to Wanda Deagen Studio and specifically Stephanie! My husband and I lacked any ability to dance and were so nervous about having everyone stare at us during our first dance. But thanks to our classes, we weren't worried at all! Everything went great and it ended up being one of my favorite moments of the evening!
We could not be more happy with our result and the classes were fun and not intimidating at all.
Would recommend to anyone who is nervous about their first dance!

We used Olivia to help us coordinate our first dance since my husband doesn't like to dance. It helped him build confidence. The whole package was around $300. It included 5 lessons that were 45 minutes each. Our guests liked the dance. I was expecting hour lessons not 45 minutes. You also share the dance floor with other couples so it's more of group dance with private instructors.

We went for a simple dance lesson and ended up getting a few private lessons for our first dance because we loved everyone there so much! We felt like family as soon as we walked in. Loren did our private lessons and she was so incredibly helpful! Even though we waited until last minute, she worked in three private lessons for us and it was definitely worth it! It wasn't even expensive! We can't wait to go back and keep learning to dance with them!

My husband was nervous about us dancing and he felt so much better after taking the dance classes. Everyone was so nice. We plan on continuing dance lessons.

Me and my husband took lessons and everyone loved our first dance. It wasn't the typical boring slow dance. We had such a fun time taking the lessons and they really paid off.

OMG, I LOVE the folks at Wanda Deagan Dance Studio. Thank goodness we decided to spring for the lessons, because the crowd went WILD at our wedding for our first dance. The wedding dance package is perfect, and if you've enver danced before they will have you looking like Fred & Ginger in no time. Annalisa was our instructor and she tailored our dance to us. We did a bachata, which I'd never even heard of but now I'm a dancing fool! My hubby and I signed up for more lessons after our wedding because we had so much fun. PLEASE try them out because they are really amazing and we just love it there!!!!!

Love Analisa! She is so nice and fun! Having them help you choreograph your first dance is a must. It adds that 'wow' factor especially since I, like most people, are used to seeing the typical sway back and forth dance. it will make for something really memorable esp. if you have videographer.

We learned the Tango in 3 lessons. The teacher was very good, she listened to any suggestions or ideas we had and implemented them. The class was fun and she was easy to work with.
