Fun, Creative, and Stress-Free

Emma from Forever Wedding Dance was an absolute dream to work with! We were initially nervous about learning a choreographed dance for our wedding, but Emma made the whole process so much fun. She listened patiently to our music preferences and any dance move requests we had, then crafted a routine that perfectly captured us as a couple. Her choreography was creative and manageable, and she was always encouraging and positive throughout the lessons. She was able to make changes on the go if a suggested dance move didn't sit right and the end result was a show-stopping dance that we loved and all our guests were blown away by.

In addition to choreographing our first wedding dance, she also helped me learn my Father/Daughter dance choreography - when my Dad lives in the US! She helped me learn the moves separately and then the week before the wedding she worked with me and my Dad to put all the final touches together so we could also have our special moment.

We can't thank Emma enough for helping us feel confident and comfortable on the dance floor – it was a highlight of our wedding night! We recommend Emma 1000x over.

100% recommend

Emma is brilliant. We'd prepared a mash-up of two songs and Emma got the 'not-too-serious' vibe we were after completely. Her choreography was pitched at the perfect level for us, and classes were fun, well-paced and challenging, without being remotely overwhelming (for two novices). Emma was transparent about costs (and not wanting to rope us in to more classes that we'd need) from the outset, and responsive and helpful via email. Recommend 100% for your big day. Thanks Emma!

Amazing Experience

Emma is fantastic! We chose ‘Kiss me’ by sixpence none the richer and she put together a slick 2 minute routine that made me, a man with two left feet, look like I knew what I was doing. We even included a lift. We did 5 x 1 hour lessons though the last couple were just finishing touches really. She has the patience of a saint, I’m not the easiest to direct so he skills at working with beginners is superb. We did our private lessons in Elephant and Castle which worked great for us.

Overall this was one of my highlights of the wedding planning process. With so many demands on your time. Having that one hour where it’s just you and your partner dancing was a refreshing break. Emma creates such a lovely environment. I would highly recommend.

Wedding Dance

Emma was super friendly and she choreographed an amazing dance, while coaching us and giving us the confidence we needed. She made the whole experience very easy for us, especially considering my now husband had no prior dancing experience! We still do our dance every so often to remind us of our wedding day :)

Wedding dance to fit our personalities

We got a 3 lesson package with Emma to prepare for our first wedding dance. We shared our first dance song choice, our level of dancing ability, and the vibe we wanted to go for. Emma took it from there and choreographed such a fun routine that suited our abilities. With a bit of practice at home, we think we nailed it on the big day! Super easy communication, scheduling and always with our needs/wishes at the core. Highly recommended!

First dance at our wedding

Emma did a brilliant job taking our desired music and choreographing our first dance. Really enjoyed the weekly lessons and was very happy with the dance and reception we got at our wedding

We loved it!

Just had our class with Emma, she was excellent. We weren't sure if we wanted to do much more than the classic sway, but Emma created a simple routine for us that fits really well with our music. She really put us at ease so we enjoyed the class and we were really pleasantly surprised with how much she could teach us. Emma was also v flexible when arranging the class and is also flexible on numbers of lessons etc which is great for those wanting to keep it simple.

Fantastic coaching

Emma W is simply fantastic. Prior to signing up with Emma, we had little confidence that anyone could prepare us onto the dance floor with not so much time we had and virtually no dance experience at all. With Emma's teaching, the outcome was fantastic and we impressed our guests and indeed ourselves too! we enjoyed all the learnings with Emma, she is structured, patient and fun to learn from. Highly recommended and thank you Emma!

Upbeat Jive

Emma is simply an awesome teacher. We decided to dance to Pharrell Williams' "Happy". With no dance experience, we'd given ourselves a challenge, but Emma pushed us to give the lifts and faster paced steps a go, and with practice it started to feel natural She's so patient and friendly, making it a lovely activity to do in the lead up to our wedding. We got amazing praise on the day and I'm so happy we did this.

Classical Waltz

Emma is a great teacher. She managed to choreograph our first dance. Our guests loved the dance and were astonished that we managed to learn it just having a couple of lessons (we danced waltz to Tchaikovsky). She was very patient and enthusiastic and it was fun to learn the steps. We highly recommend her.

Lets get ready to rumble!!

Emma is amazing. We wanted something cheeky, but classy (!) for our first dance, and gave Emma a bit of a challenge. The music we picked was "At Last" by Ella Fitzgerald, and PJ and Duncan's (Ant & Dec) Lets get ready to rumble. Quite the mix! Emma gave us private lessons (bought as a wedding gift by one of our bridesmaids), just three I think, and devised a superb routine. All our guests said it was the best they'd ever seen. Emma was so easy to work with - and my husband and I aren't the easiest of dance students! I'd highly recommend getting lessons, and using Emma. It was so fun. x

Emma helped us to create our own wedding dance routine

Emma helped us to create a dance to impress our family and friends on our wedding day. Neither of us had done any dancing in the past, and wanted to do more than stand still and sway on our wedding day! We first enjoyed going to two of Emma's beginner dance day programmes, learning the basics of the waltz, quickstep, tango and foxtrot. We then went on to do a 'wedding dance class', which was just us and one other couple so Emma had the time to work with each couple, giving us ideas to make a dance routine to our chose music Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol. We then came up with our own routine and arranged a private lesson with Emma to run through it and get some tips! Our dancing certainly wasn't perfect on the day, but we really enjoyed ourselves, and got plenty of cheers from our audience :)

Solid choreography

Emma helped us bring alive the ideas we had for our wedding dance. She took our ideas and music and choreographed a dance that suited our ability, but looked very impressive on the day, she helped us inject a bit of humour into our routine. We were very pleased with the teaching she gave us and on the day our dance went without a hitch (almost) and our guests were suitably in awe. I would recommend Emma to any couple.

Danced our socks off! Thank you

Emma was highly recommended to us by a friend who was already a dance student of hers. We knew that we wanted to do an upbeat swing style dance to a fast paced tune, but we had no idea where to begin planning it. We let Emma know the song and when she arrived for our first session she had already choreographed a dance for us, which she adjusted to match our (absolute lack of) skills. My (now) husband was keen on the idea but didn't easily feel comfortable with learning the routine, but Emma put us both at ease very quickly. She covered a lot of the dance as quickly as possible so that we could practice in our own time. Our only regret was that we didn't start earlier so that we could spend more time with her perfecting the dance for the night. It was so much fun, and we hugely enjoyed dancing together and knowing on the day that we had that to surprise everyone with. Our friends and family loved it and we know it's all thanks to Emma's work that we were able to pull of approximately what she taught us. Above all, it was a great experience and got us feeling fit and healthy before the big day. Thanks Emma!

Great structure, great lesson

As we had done an introductory dance course with Emma previously, she was the first person we turned to for help for our wedding dance.

Really glad we did, she gave us the structure to work from and some dance moves to work with. However, what I appreciated most was her approach, there was nothing to formulated so small errors did not upset us and, on the big night it came together beautifully. (Well, as the Groom I had a happy wife, so what more could I ask for?)

Thoroughly recommended, good fun and it allowed us to relax.

George and Aleksandra.
