Types of Dances During a Wedding
The first type of dance that often happens during a wedding is the processional. It includes wedding party members such as flower girls or ring bearers.
Finally, the bride and groom and their parents.
After they are announced, they typically have their first dance as husband and wife.
The next type of dance is usually reserved for the newlyweds’ parents—the mother-son dance and the father-daughter dance.
These are beautiful moments during which guests can watch the parents’ love and admiration for their children be celebrated through song and dance.
Then, it is time for everyone else to get out on the dance floor. There are often special dances like;
- The dollar dance, where guests line up to dance with the bride and groom.
- The bouquet toss, where the ladies try to catch the bride’s bouquet.
Of course, no wedding is complete without some classic line dances like the Electric Slide or the Macarena.
Whatever type of dances you choose for your wedding, be sure to have a lot of fun and celebrate your love with all of your family and friends.
