Dreaming of the perfect Wedding First Dance? We take pride in helping our couples make that dream true.

We also specialize in Father-Daughter, Mother-Son, & Bridal Party dances, and general dancing for the reception. Send us a note today with additional questions or to book your First Introductory lesson with one of our fantastic professional dance instructors!

We found Lake Shore Dance Academy about 2 years ago in a total panic. With only six weeks until our wedding and zero dance experience between us, the thought of performing in front of a crowd was terrifying. In just a few short weeks, Anna managed to take us from absolute beginners to confidently nailing a fun Rumba that completely shocked our friends and family! Apparently, the chaos of our wedding dance wasn't enough to deter us, because 2 years later, we are still at it with Anna. Since that first dance, she has continued to push us out of our comfort zones in the best ways possible. We’ve progressed from wedding prep, to performing a fully-costumed Viennese Waltz showcase, to recently completing our third official dance competition! Dance has added so much to our lives. For me as someone who works from home as a software developer, it’s the perfect physical outlet to disconnect from stress. For my wife, it has been an incredible boost to confidence and self-expression. Most importantly, it’s given us a shared goal and a fun way to connect and problem-solve as a couple. Anna has a fun and light hearted personality yet manages to strike an effective balance of making lessons challenging, yet effective and rewarding. Whether you just want to survive your wedding dance or you want to eventually hit the competition floor, we can't recommend Lake Shore Dance Academy enough. We look forward to continuing our dance journey for years to come!

Handheld Studio is a video camcorder rental service that makes it easy to capture your celebration with nostalgia and personality! We ship ready to record camcorders straight to your door, giving your guests the chance to film the moments that feel real, fun and completely true to you. You film, we edit, and you get a highlight video that feels like your friends made it! Based in Los Angeles and shipping nationwide.

My husband and I had a micro-wedding in NYC with just our family. While we hired a photographer, we decided not to hire a videographer because we were trying to keep the day as intimate, stress-free and low-cost as we could. However, we still wanted to have some video memories of the day so decided to try out Handheld Studio. We are so happy we did! The video footage is truly so special to us and captured so many moments we either didn't see or forgot! The footage reminds us of our old family videos in the best way possible. We also absolutely loved the highlight reel they created for us with the footage (they picked the perfect moments to summarize our weekend and then set it to the soundtrack of two of our favorite songs). The process was also so easy. We received the camera a few days before our wedding then passed it around at our rehearsal dinner party, while we were getting ready during the wedding day, at our ceremony and then during dinner while our family gave speeches. The day after our wedding, we mailed back the camera and left for our honeymoon. A few days after we returned from our honeymoon, Handheld Studio sent us the full video footage and the compilation video. So easy. And we are so happy to have these memories. Could not recommend more!

For almost a century, Maison Gabrielle has embodied the subtle art of taste. Shaped over time between the great kitchens of Provence and Paris, our family house collaborates with chefs and restaurateurs across the world, offering the finest expressions of spices, herbs, aromatics, artisanal tea, infusions and gourmet delights — all deeply rooted in the grand tradition of French culinary savoir-faire. In 2024, Maison Gabrielle chose to open this heritage to a wider audience, sharing its expertise through an exceptional collection designed to elevate home cooking with the same precision and elegance found in the most refined restaurants.

Working with Maison Gabrielle was such a joy from start to finish. Dara made the whole process feel effortless with her friendly approach and clear communication every step of the way. We wanted something from France to give to our guests because we met in France but finding something authentic, unique and "Us" was very hard. She helped us design a wedding favor that truly reflected who we are as a couple, and the personalized packaging turned out absolutely stunning. Our guests were blown away by the luxury of the tea boxes, and many of them have actually ordered more since the wedding because they loved the tea so much - its actually not just really beautiful but delicious, too. If you want a favor that guests will actually keep and use instead of tossing in a drawer, this is it!!! 100% !!! We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we'd work with Mason Gabrielle again in a heartbeat! I have my sister's bridal shower coming up and we already know what the favors will be for that - and maybe even the welcome bags and wedding favors, too!

It’s like having a super organized friend who actually replies to everyone’s texts. Guests could just message Festa for things like the dress code, parking info, or to RSVP. I didn’t have to field dozens of texts the week of the wedding. It even reminded people about events and helped with headcounts. Worth every penny.
