We are a couple who loves having fun and didn't want to have the "same old" wedding reception. We decided to surprise everyone with a dance inside our first dance that included our bridesmaids and groomsmen. Most of our bridal party was out of state so we choreographed it and then recorded the dance and sent it to them so they could learn it. We practiced it only once secretly on our wedding day in the tiny Brides room-this was so funny because we had to keep pausing the music and acting like nothing was going on when someone would open the door! The time we "performed" it was only the second time we had done it with the whole bridal party.
No one had any idea we were planning this and it was a blast! The looks on the faces of our family and friends were priceless :D
Our Wedding Date was August 8, 2009 - Mark and Kjersti Helberg
