Hi, I'm Nolan Wayne, a professional dancer specializing in Ballroom, Country, Swing, and more. I have a passion for helping couples create unforgettable wedding moments.
I know that stepping onto the dance floor in front of everyone can feel intimidating. That's why I've made it my mission to make the choreography process fun, stress-free, and completely tailored to you. Whether you want a classic waltz, a country two-step, a smooth swing, or something uniquely yours, I'll create the perfect dance for your big moment.
Every couple has their own story, and your first dance should tell yours. I'm proud to work with all couples, regardless of gender or orientation. Let's create something beautiful together.
Let's TalkThree simple steps to your perfect first dance
We'll chat about your vision, your song, and your comfort level. This is where we get to know each other and start planning your dance.
I'll create custom choreography tailored to your song, style, and skill level. We'll practice together until you feel confident and camera-ready.
On your big day, you'll step onto that dance floor with confidence, ready to share a magical moment with your partner and your guests.
What couples are saying
"We wanted a country two-step to our favorite song, and Nolan absolutely nailed it. He broke everything down so simply that even my husband (who swore he couldn't dance) looked like a pro. The video of our first dance is still my favorite from the whole wedding."
"Nolan choreographed a waltz for us that had my grandmother in tears. He somehow made it elegant enough to impress everyone but easy enough that we never felt overwhelmed. His patience is unmatched. We must have run through the dip 50 times until we got it perfect!"
"I was TERRIFIED of our first dance. Like, anxiety dreams terrified. Nolan made every lesson feel low-pressure and actually fun. We loved how much he made it a safe and comfortable experience for us. By our wedding day, I was excited to dance. Our guests kept asking where we learned to move like that. Honestly, best money we spent."
"We threw Nolan a curveball: we wanted swing with a surprise lift at the end. Not only did he make it happen, but he made sure we felt 100% confident. The reaction from our guests when we hit that lift? Priceless. We're already planning to take more lessons just for fun."
A glimpse into the magic of our couples' first dances
Everything you need to know before we start
Absolutely! Most of my couples come to me with zero dance experience, and that's completely fine. I specialize in breaking down moves into simple, manageable steps. By the end of our sessions, you'll look like you've been dancing together for years. Trust the process. I've never had a couple who couldn't pull it off.
Most couples book 4-6 sessions, which gives us enough time to learn the choreography and build confidence. If you're looking for something simpler (a classic sway with a few highlights), 2-3 sessions might be enough. For a show-stopping routine with lifts or complex moves, plan for 6-8 sessions. We'll figure out the right number during your consultation.
I recommend starting lessons 2-3 months before your wedding. This gives us plenty of time to learn, practice, and polish without feeling rushed. That said, I've worked with couples as close as 3 weeks out, and we just adjust expectations accordingly. The sooner you book, the more flexibility we have with scheduling.
Yes! I've choreographed dances to everything from Ed Sheeran ballads to country classics to 80s power ballads. If you haven't chosen your song yet, I can help you pick one that fits your vibe and is dance-friendly. Some songs work better than others, but I can make almost any song work with the right approach.
Very common! I'll create choreography that plays to both of your strengths. The more experienced partner might get a few extra flourishes, while I'll make sure the less experienced partner has moves they feel confident with. The goal is for both of you to shine and feel comfortable.
Yes! Mother-son and father-daughter dances are special moments too. I offer single sessions or mini-packages specifically for parent dances. We can keep it simple and elegant, or add a fun surprise element, whatever fits your relationship and comfort level.
Every couple is different, so let's build a package that fits your timeline, budget, and goals
