Dinner Dances
Tell me more...
Our Dinner Dances are a fantastic way to meet new and interesting single people whilst enjoying delicious food and great conversation. Dinner Dances are held at picturesque Hotels and Country Estates throughout Essex, Herts, Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambs, Kent, Berkshire and London. They provide our single members with a perfect environment to mix, mingle, make new friends and find that special someone.
The entertainment throughout the evening varies from month to month to keep our singles events exciting and these include Bands, Discos, Tribute Acts or Live Singers. The dance floor is always full until the early hours. We do not have traditional ballroom dancing at Across the Room, just slow dances and disco, nothing complicated!
Are there table moves?
Yes, the gentlemen move after the starter and the main course. This keeps the dynamics of the table alive and the conversation flowing!
Some gentleman of course, do not wish to move as they find themselves in such attractive, interesting company but there is plenty of opportunity after the meal to mix and mingle and get to know more fellow guests “Across the Room!”.
We also have Dance Cards on the tables; you will find it’s just a bit of fun and a great ice-breaker. Please fill in your dance card as you will find that the dance floor fills in an instant as soon as the first dance is announced. The format of the evening is the first six dances are slow and then followed by a mixture of party music and romantic classics.
After dinner you can take a stroll around the grounds, relax in the luxurious lounges or hit the dance floor. We have a mixture of bands, duos, various tributes acts and discos.
