Our Story

If I was nervous for my First Dance as a professional dancer, surely other couples felt the same way and I knew I could help them.
— Elizabeth Marberry, founder of WDC

Elizabeth Marberry launched Wedding Dance Coach in 2010 as a bride and professional dancer.

After dancing and teaching worldwide for over 20 years, it wasn’t until she got married in April 2010 that she realized the pressure and stress that came with nailing your First Dance.  

Ever the consummate performer, the cheesy awkward middle school sway wasn’t going to cut it for Elizabeth.

Despite all the relentless planning required at any wedding, she still managed to pull off an unforgettable surprise dance (with her non-dancer husband!)

After 10+ years in the wedding industry, Wedding Dance Coach has a fabulous team of experienced instructors. We have helped thousands of couples rock their reception with confidence.

Your First Dance tells your love story for all of your special guests. We help you bring that story to life!

We create a relaxing and encouraging dance space where you can let go of judgment and enjoy the power of movement and connection.

Come and explore, experiment, and leave your perfectionism at the door.

Build your confidence and create a dance you LOVE in as little as 5 lessons.
