And the reason for that is because I can't dance AT ALL!!!! I'm completely tone deaf. I dance like a drunk horse! Even slow dances...I don't know what I'm doing. I know you let the guy lead but for some reason my feet just go where they want to. Any advice?

Re: Nervous About Dancing
how about taking a few dance lessons? FH signed us up with Arthur Murray and we've not only been having fun, but now we won't look like complete spazzes! haha

I've looked into dance lessons many times....they're not really in our budget right now....things are way tight.

Re: Nervous About Dancing
SInce you mentioned not having the budget for dance lessons, i would just dance around the livingroom with FH every night from now until the wedding to your wedding song. Just get comfortable dancing with him to that song and then it will all work out
We took a few lessons and even with those we were still like 'yikes' and made sure to practice every night so that we would be comfortbale and then when the big moment came everything went fine.
Plus, I think that no matter what you do people will just say 'awwww' they look so great together and not really notice what type of steps you are doing...

dance lessons are $$$, but you can buy a slow dance DVD on amazon.com for about $20.... it helped FH out tremendously. He couldn't dance at all either, and now he's comfortable with the basics...
