Dancing With the Stars, watch out!

Wendy and I had our first wedding ballroom dance class last night.

We learned some basic foxtrot, east coast swing, and waltz. It was kind
of daunting being the terrible dancing lesbians that you knew everyone was
looking at. There were some older men there with their wives that did nothing
but smirk at us the whole time. I almost never have something like that get
to me, but I guess I was just SO out of my box. Once we started dancing
it was full concentration and alot of laughing, it was kind of fun...I mean
we've NEVER danced together. 

Turns out that our wedding song we chose is just perfect tempo for an
American waltz, so waltzing it is. Next week we'll be broken down into 
groups depending on what dance we are doing so there will just be a couple
of us. Let the choreography begin!  

A.A. Bondy "Of the Sea".....there is someone to thank on lj for this song, I'm just not sure who!

Boo on the people giving you looks, but I'm really glad once you got to dancing you both really loved it <3

Hee! <3 I'm glad you guys managed to have fun with it. Are you doing any swing dancing at your wedding in general? I always thought that would be fun! /says something who never dances

God I hate that feeling. I make a concerted effort not to end up in situations where me and a friend or me and a girlfriend are the only lesbians, but it happens, and people are assholes.

Dance class sounds fun, though!

Be so glad you took the classes, because my hubby and I watched one Youtube video pre-wedding. When the big moment came he forgot he had to start, and the guests got a fine old laugh after hearing me say, "You have to lead."

At which point we just swayed in place for three minutes. I still love that moment, but there was more blushing than originally intended...
