Meet Dance Instructor Frank Lizzio:
I started ballroom dancing at the age of 12 and instantly fell in love with it. I trained and competed in Australia and internationally for 15 years.
My career highlight was receiving a scholarship to travel to the UK in 2006. This gave me the opportunity to train with some of the world’s leading dance instructors and compete against the world’s best Latin dancers at the Blackpool Dance Festival, the biggest ballroom dancing competition in the world.
I have taught for over 20 years ranging from private lessons to group classes, and now focus on teaching couples who are getting married, to confidently prepare them for their first wedding dance.

2019 MasterChef winner's experience with Best Wedding Waltzes
The culinary queen and 2019 MasterChef winner Larissa and now husband Luke came to Best Wedding Waltzes for some last minute dance lessons before their wedding in March 2021.
Their song Al Green's "Let's Stay Together" was a fun, more upbeat song compared to the traditional slower songs. We were able to put together a simple fun dance they were able to learn in a short amount of time with Larissa saying "Thanks heaps! We had so much fun dancing with you"
Your Wedding Dress and Dance Lessons
Before starting your first dance lesson, it’s important for the ladies to describe (in private) what kind of a dress they will be wearing, whether it is a slim evening gown, if it has a big puffy skirt with lots of heavy material or whether it has a long train... A picture of the dress would be ideal to bring.
Knowing the type of wedding dress you will be wearing will help assist in knowing what type of choreography will work, without giving you any difficult moves that could get you into trouble on the night.
It’s also a good idea to wear a similar type dress to the lesson, as dancing in your wedding dress on the night will feel completely different to dancing in your casual clothes that you have been practising in and wearing to your lessons. If you do not want your partner to know what type of dress you will be wearing before the big day, you could also put it on and have a quick dance with me while your partner waits outside so no surprises are spoilt.
Choosing Your Song For Your Wedding Dance
I always say the song you choose for your first wedding dance should mean something and be special to both of you. If you don’t have a special song, that’s ok too, but I would strongly suggest having something picked before your first dance lesson to eliminate any time wasted you could be spending on your dance. Even though the bride and groom may have different taste in music, my advice would be to pick something you BOTH like.
If you are struggling to choose just one song, bring your top 2 or 3 choices to your first dance lesson and we can discuss what would work best for you.
Sometimes your favourite song just won’t work for a first dance. It may be too fast, or the music may be designed for a dance with a higher degree of difficulty. At your first dance lesson, I am happy to give my expert opinion on your music choice to get the best possible result out of your dance.
When should we start Dance Lessons?
In my opinion, 3 months before the wedding would be a good time to start dance lessons which will allow you to get comfortable with the routine
and make a decision on how many lessons you think you will need and how often you would like them whether it is weekly or fortnightly etc.
Apart from learning a specialised choreographed routine, starting 3 months before the wedding may even allow you to learn some moves for
the reception.
You will be able to learn some basic dance steps, twirls, dips and lifts or whatever you choose to put together an amazing choreographed routine that will look natural and romantic for your special dance.
On your first dance lesson, it’s always a good idea to discuss what you are wanting to get out of your dance and if you have any special requests. It does depend on how much time and effort you're willing to put into your dance both in the lesson and practising at home for me to best assist you and get you ready for your special day. Talk to me about your wedding dance lessons and we can map out a suitable time table to ensure your dance is memorable on your big day!
What shoes to wear for your wedding dance - tips for the bride?
There are those ladies out there that can run marathons in heels and those that just love to walk around barefoot all day, every day. There are no rules about your wedding day. It’s your day so you make up the rules! This is the same when it comes to your wedding dance.
You may choose to stick with the heels you have been wearing all day or you may choose to change to ballet flats for comfort or even go barefoot. If you choose to go without heels, be mindful of the height difference between you and your partner.
I do however recommend you go with whatever shoes you have (or have not) been wearing in your dance lessons, as if you have been practising in joggers and then all of a sudden on your wedding night try to dance in 3 inch heels, you might get a rude shock and things might fall apart.
If you decide you are going to be wearing heels to dance in, DO NOT wear your wedding shoes to your dance lessons. Most wedding shoes will be white and pristine, and trust me, by the end of your dance lessons your shoes will most certainly not be white – especially if you or your partner have two left feet (which I will have fixed by the end of your dance lessons).
Find some shoes with a similar height heel and wear those instead. Now be aware that most dance studios don’t allow thin heels to be worn as they can damage the wooden floor surfaces. You may need to look into getting some heel guards or heel protectors.
Do we need to dance for the whole song?
Keep it simple! With so many things to think about on the day, you don’t want to be worrying about remembering a long dance routine! Keep it short and sweet. The average song is about 3-minutes long. If you have picked a song that’s longer than that and you don’t want to dance for the entire song, you can either have the DJ fade it out at the 3-minute mark or have it professionally cut.
