I love the energy that good groomsmen bring to a wedding celebration! From demanding that they all wear kilts to putting on impressive performances like this one, groomsmen always seem to be adding a lot of charm and style to weddings. Forward this video to the groomsmen for your upcoming ceremony as a source of inspiration for their wild wedding antics!

Have you decided what you’re going to do for your first dance? My husband and I had just one lesson, but thought it was well worth it. We danced to “Stolen” by Dashboard Confessionals, and took what we learned and made it our own. First dancing slow and then we surprised guests by showing off the moves we picked up from that four hour class. The cheers we got were totally worth all the money, hours of practice and the nerves we felt beforehand.

I’ve noticed that this type of dancing is getting quite popular and has inspired the latest reality TV show. “Rock the Reception” on TLC showcases couples as they learn how to surprise guests with their fancy footwork. Kind of like a spin-off from the YouTube video I showed in a previous post, this one is so fun and it really rocks!

It’s cool to see how couples are really taking risks out there on the dance floor. One wedding I went to featured the couple dancing first to a choreographed slow song and then sped up with something fast and funny. What I’ve been noticing on the Internet is surprising first dances in which couples seemingly dance to a slow, romantic melody and then the music is cut and the laughs begin! Today’s bride and groom want to really entertain guests instead of making them watch several minutes of boring and awkward shuffling back and forth. As a result, it looks like they’re taking lessons and practicing before hand and the results are hilarious. See for yourself!
