First Dance Suggested Steps/Style Question
I'm getting married in a few months and my fiancée and I have finally decided on our first dance song. I have never stepped foot in a dance studio, and realistically I would say I did a bit of an 'energetic bounce' at both of my proms in high school (lol.). My fiancée also has no formal dance training but we both very much want to be able to look like we can do more than sway (mostly) on time to the music.
I want to start a weekly dance night where both of us spend a couple hours practicing together. The issue is, I have no idea where to start. I see recommendations online saying not to try a choreographed dance routine as a newcomer, but I personally feel like having the structure of an actual routine might be helpful when I'm so far outside of my comfort zone. I also have no idea what type of dance step/routine would fit for our chosen song.
The song we chose is 'It Had to Be You' covered by Frank Sinatra.
I'm looking for advice and recommendations for where we should start, the step/style of dance we should be looking for, and ideally any links to either written or video guides that we can use to both gauge if its in the realm of possibility for the both of us and if it looks like something we would enjoy. We're both pretty active so putting in the hours to actually learn and get comfortable isn't something we'll shy away from. I also read the pinned post for wedding dance music and style questions, and since it looks like her dress may be an impact to any style that we try, this is what she will be wearing:
Dress: She will be wearing the same dress from the ceremony at the reception, but it will be bustled. It will go down to her feet. She also said that the sleeves will limit her ability to raise her arms too high and she plans to wear chunky 1" heels (let me know if heels are not the right choice for after the ceremony!!), I feel like she might want flat shoes for the dance but if its doable in heels that's good to know. The floor of the dance space is concrete.
I appreciate any help or expertise anyone has in pointing me in the right direction!
