    Oh my God, this is amazing. Thanks for posting! This will be the new "rock the reception" trend. Awesome!

    saw this yesterday on Weddingbee and I laughed and cried all at the same time it was so cute and sweet! But very cool :) Wish I had the balls to do something like that, but it's just not me. I hope someone I know does it someday. LOL!

    i said this on the 09/09 board too... a wedding shouldn't be trite and a mockery of what a wedding and marriage really are.  yes, you're wedding should be you and fun, but it's a wedding, not the prom.

    How is it a mockery? Where in the rulebook of marriages does it state the ceremony should be a solenmn event? While I wouldn't have done it for myself as I am pretty much traditional in action, I love people that throw their own personality into their weddings - especially if it's expected from the B&G. Maybe the B&G and their WP met through dance class or something. As a guest, I would have been clapping my hands in unsion the loudest.

    I don't think a wedding should be solemn, and yes i DO think it should be a joyous occasion. and to each their own.  but marriage is the biggest decision of your entire life, before God.  You can dance any day of your life, you get married once and I truly believe it should be done with all the intensity, devotion, thought and sincerity it deserves.  to me, this just seems like an AW thing to do.  i know most people dont' agree with me. i'm okay with that.

    tela, FWIW, I posted this as a "hey, this is fun to watch" thing.  Does not, under any circumstances, mean that I agree with it... for entertainment's sake, it's something fun.  Clearly - as evidenced by my username - I come from a unique viewpoint, and DH is the one who actually sent me this link, which came from some of his (pastor) friends.  Does it mean that they would allow this as a processional for a wedding they presided over?  No.  Does it mean that they can't appreciate it for what it is?  No.  They all found it funny, and my DH, who agrees with you that a wedding is meant to be a joyous occasion while still be focused on the event of the actual vows and marriage, said that he would *not* allow this as the processional for a wedding he conducted, but would be more than happy to allow it for the recessional.  If it matters any for where this view is coming from, we're Lutheran, and DH (and I), especially, is pretty high church, at that.  Additionally, different churches have different views on what would be considered "appropriate" for a wedding.  From what he saw/understood from the email, DH believes that this *may* be a UCC church, which would tend more towards the casual.  In our Lutheran church, this would not go over well at all.  I really don't believe that this couple did this as a "mockery" to a wedding, but rather an expression (albeit inappropriate to some denominations) of their joy and who they are as a couple/their personalities.  As far as it being an "AW thing"... correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the whole day basically about the attention being on the B&G?  I don't see how this made it any different or worse.  As you said, to each their own.  You made your choices for your wedding; this couple made their choices for theirs, and everyone is happy in the end.  No use worrying about it! :)

    Ditto TPW. tela - I see what you're saying -- for YOU it wouldn't work. That's cool. But for others? I judge far more things people chose for their weddings than a dancing processional. Would it make a difference to you if it wasn't in a church?

    the bride and groom were just on the Today show. The bride said it was her idea and that she grew up dancing. They also said they rehearsed it for about an hour and a half the Thursday before the wedding. The whole wedding party is suppose to be on the Today show tomorrow to perform their dance. They seemed like a very nice and cute couple!

    I'm glad the couple was happy and had fun.  And i probably wouldn't feel any different if the wedding wasn't in a church.The good thing about weddings is that everyone can personalize them to their own tastes and do what they want.
