Buckeye Open Showcase FAQ

Hello Everyone,

I want to share with you how we got to meet hundreds of new people this weekend! David, Cedric, Sophia, Josh, and I got a chance to go to one of the largest Wedding Shows in Columbus to meet engaged couples and share The Crystal Ballroom with them! I am personally so proud of how well we are all working as a team and how much we all care about sharing the joy, acceptance, and connection of dance. The feedback we got from other vendors is that we are the most professional dance studio they've seen. We are looking forward to helping the next group of engaged couples develop the confidence to dance together at their wedding! If you know anyone that is engaged, send them to the studio before the end of April for their first lesson since we have SPECIAL PRICING for referred wedding clients now until the end of April!
