Make Your Wedding Dance Special

It’s quite common to find dancing at wedding receptions. Often, the father of the bride will dance with her and then we have the couple’s first dance. Since you can let your hair down during this occasion, it doesn’t matter whether you are a guest, or a member of the wedding party.

Chicken Dance
Would you like to add some excitement to the dance floor? Some activities are sure to be a hit. Get your guests to let their hair down, and you can try a game of the”chicken dance”. If you love to have some fun and laughter at your party, and want the dance floor to be filled, you may want to try this.

Stick numbers beneath the seats. Get the guests to look under their chairs when the number is announced. Just repeat the numbers at different tables based on your seating plan. You can have various numbers from ‘1′ to ‘10′.

Before the number is announced, the guests would check under their seats to find out the numbers they had been assigned to. Post-it notes and masking tape will be suitable. All the ‘5’s would have to go to the dance floor and do the chicken dance. This is helpful if you want your guests to mingle with more people apart from the group they have been sticking to. It is also good if you have a lot of guests who do not know each other.

Multiplication
Another way to get people onto the dance floor is to get the wedding group to invite guests onto the dance floor. After one round of dancing, each guest at the dance floor will invite another guest in to dance, untill everyone is dancing together.

Hire A Dance Teacher
Many wedding couples take up dancing lessons so that they can vow the crowd with their slick dance moves. Hire a dance teacher to demonstrate some simple steps to the audience, and get them on their feet? Or if you have a great friend who is a professional dancer and willing to help you at your wedding, then ask him or her to do this.

Bringing a dance teacher for the wedding is one activity that has been increasingly popular over the years. As a kind of pre-dance activity, the teacher will teach the guests some basic steps on the dance floor, perhaps teaching a bit of the waltz or, for something modern, some salsa, before the music officially begins and dancing starts.

With a dance teacher around, you get to liven up the ambience and other shy people would actually be tempted to join in and have great fun. Your guests get to practise first and make all the mistakes before the official dance begins.

These ideas are quite affordable, so if you are on a tight wedding budget, then you can simply think of these ideas to get your guests onto the dance floor instead of hiring expensive bands or performers to liven up the mood.
