Father-Daughter Wedding Dance Choreography
skill level: beginner
Style: Fun, upbeat & SUPER easy & Quick to learn
about this tutorial
Isn’t She Lovely by Stevie Wonder is one of my favorite father-daughter wedding dance song choices because of the beautiful and heartfelt lyrics and its fun danceability. Plus, wedding bands tend to have this song on their list and most guests are familiar with this song and will enjoy watching you dance to it. This choreography is SO EASY to learn that even people who say they have two left feet or no rhythm will be able to pick it up in just a few short hours of practice. You will learn all the movements in the video above including how to put it together with the music. This takes the guesswork out of it so you can enjoy your moment on the dance floor with your father or your daughter!
can we really learn to dance online?
Yes, you can learn to dance for your wedding online and quickly, even if you've never danced a day in your life. Like learning a new language, learning to dance takes effort and consistency. You won't be able to just watch the videos and then magically be able to dance if you don't actually practice the steps. But I promise, this is still the easiest wedding dance tutorial that exists online. Some couples will find this online method of learning even easier than in-person lessons because you will see exactly how the steps are supposed to look before you even try them.
How long does the choreography take to learn?
The entire tutorial takes two to three hours to complete, including practice time between steps. If you have the time, I recommend focusing on one step per practice session. It will take you a little less than a week to complete if you break it apart into one or two sections per day. If you are a marathon learner or test-crammer, you might set aside several hours on the weekend to learn each step in the course before putting it together into choreography. You’ll still need to practice the dance leading up to the wedding to build muscle memory!
what if my father or daughter lives in a different state?
This is actually the best way to learn how to dance if your father or daughter doesn’t live nearby and won’t be able to take dance lessons with you in person. I recommend that you both learn the tutorial with a partner (i.e. your husband, wife, fiancé(e), etc.), and your “stand-in” partner will get the added benefit of learning how to dance as well! Then when you are finally together for the wedding events, practice a couple times to make sure you’re on the same page. It will be like you were practicing together the whole time!
