So. I'm not so fond of this dance and it was the first thing my mom and I talked about when we started planning. We agreed that we shouldn't do the dance and there was no talk of it after. Fast forward a year and EVERYONE is asking if we're doing it. When I say no, they act dissapointed and shocked (it is quite common in FI and my families to do the dance). I was speaking to another relative who was like you HAVE to do the dance. She kind of talked me into it (as much as I regret saying that).
I then mentioned it to my mom and she said well I was just agreeing with you in the beginning but I actually thought you should do it. Now, we're seriously considering it. FI thinks that we should do it. My mom, him and everyone else who's asking about it reasons it as a way for people to dance with us and they swear up and down that people do want to dance with us. We've sorta kinda came to a conclusion that we'll do the dance if we hear people asking about it at the reception. We'll just play it by ear... What do you think? I don't think it's a cultural thing as I'm not Polish but it definately is a traditional thing in our family.
I just don't want to come off tacky especially since this is a fairly upscale wedding...
Edit - when I say "not so fond of it" I mean that I think it's tacky but I jump every time I go to a wedding with it.
