The Bubble Dance: This dance makes for a great fun and fabulous photographs! We will invite all of your guests to form a large circle around you on the dance floor, blowing bubbles which float and swirl around the new bride and groom as they dance*
*You need the "Wishing Bubbles" if you want to do this dance.
The Money Dance: This dance usually works well only if the families of the bride and groom are familiar with this tradition. In this dance, the men & women form lines and pay money to take turns dancing with the bride and groom.
