Click here to hear our first dance song...
J and I only practiced our dance one time between our last lesson and the time we actually had to do it in front of everyone else. We practiced the day before and I had taken lessons in my wedding shoes, but I had never danced in my dress. I was actually kind of nervous before we started, but I knew that J was probably more nervous than me (he doesn’t like to be the center of attention) so I had to make sure I didn’t make him more nervous.
I really wish I had a video of our first dance all ready to show you, but I don’t yet. It went really great and we had fun and we got lots of compliments. All I’ve got for now are pictures…
We also did a father/daughter dance to “Stand By Me”… a song that has always reminded me of my dad… it’s one of his favorite songs.
J and his mom had their mother/son dance to a song that she chose, “A Song for My Son”.
And then, it was time for the wedding party’s next performance. Once again, I didn’t ask any of them to do much before-hand… but I did drop the hint to the girls that we’d be doing the “Cupid Shuffle” to get the party started. The night before at the bar, we taught some of the guys to do it, even though most of them were being losers and not participating… well, this time they did :-D
And then everyone joined the party!!!
