Here are Izabela's   tips on how to make your first wedding dance perfect:


1. Timing: Give yourself enough time to learn how to dance - This is my Big Tip– You must start your wedding dance lessons at least 3 months before your wedding. This will give you enough time to plan, practice, and perfect you dance.


2. Song selection - Select a romantic song with a good easy to hear dance beat and a song that keeps a consistent beat throughout the song. Many couples have a special song. If you don't already have a song in mind, ask your dance instructor or reception DJ or band for suggestions.  
 
3.  Song length - Select a song that is less than 3 minutes long. Two or a two and a half minute for your first dance is just right. 
 
4.  Dance floor - Have a good idea of the size and shape of your wedding reception dance floor. This is important so that you can practice and get used to dancingin that amount of space.

5. Planning - Plan how and where you are going to start (enter) and end your dance. Advise you band or DJ how and when you plan to start and end your First Wedding Dance. Let your Photographers know. Plan what will happen when you end your wedding dance, will you invite everyone onto the dance floor or just your parents?

Great job by my beginners group in Richmond and their Christmas Jive! The props are great too. x

She may have been the first to take to the floor in the series 12 opener of Strictly Come Dancing on Friday, but that certainly didn't have an impact on Caroline Flack and her impressive Cha Cha.

The TV presenter wowed in a gold, fringed dress as she performed an upbeat routine to Can You Feel It? alongside professional partner Pasha Kovalev.

Despite the 34-year-old being told she was a 'natural dancer', it was fellow competitor Jake Wood who went straight to the top of the leaderboard with an astonishing 28 points. 

The first live show, however nerve-racking for the stars, saved them from a public vote and scores were instead carried forward until next weekend.

It was a passionate routine for Jake Wood and Janette Manrara, who performed a Tango to Toxic by Britney Spears.

The former EastEnders actor - who got a standing ovation afterwards - escaped the glitz in a black suit and green tie, before being told by Craig: 'I'm impressed actually. Strong frame... you took the lead and it was full of intent. One to watch.'

It was sevens from all the judges, giving him the highest score of the night by just one point.

Strictly Come Dancing continues on BBC1 on Saturday night at 7pm.
