Fantastic Day

Last weekend we held our daughters wedding and reception at Louisville Ballroom at Shall We Dance. We were so thrilled when we contacted them in December of 2021 and they were open for that weekend. Kimberly was great to work with suggesting layouts, vendors and answering many of the questions we had since this was our first and only wedding. The day was a huge success. The weather was perfect for the outside ceremony and when we moved inside for the reception we had so many positive comments about the beauty of the facility. I would highly recommend you take a look at it if you are hosting an event of 100 or less guest.

Beautiful Venue

Shall We Dance? was excellent. The venue was beautiful. We got married in the courtyard and had the reception inside. We received so many compliments. Kimberly was so easy to work with; she responded promptly to emails and questions and she was happy to give suggestions. We had the best day with the best backdrop.

WOW Your Guests! (Even if your groom hates dancing!)

WOW!!!! Kimberly with Shall We Dance has been AMAZING!!! We knew we wanted to take lessons before our wedding since my Groom generally refuses to dance and has always insisted he has 2 left feet. We met with Kimberley for our free first lesson and decided to sign up for the 5 lesson package. Kim did a great job of teaching us some fundamentals that we could build on with each lesson. She did a great job breaking down the moves for us and making it easy for us to pick up the moves quickly. After practicing different steps and turns independently, she came up with a beautifully choreographed routine for us to perform with our song... IT TURNED OUT SPECTACULARLY!! Even my groom was excited about it and said he would 10/10 do more dance lessons with me even after the wedding! Not only did she help us feel more comfortable on the dance floor together, but she helped to make our First Dance one of our favorite memories of the whole night - and our guests said the same!!!
