Rock The Dance Floor At Your Wedding
It’s quite common to find dancing at wedding receptions. It is the custom for the father of the bride to dance with the bride, followed by the wedded couple’s first dance. Anyone at the wedding can enjoy themselves fully.
Chicken Dance
Would you want to add some fun elements to the dance floor? Some games are well-liked by many. For those who prefer to have fun, 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.
Put numbers under the chairs. 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. If your guests are holding the number ‘5′, then they have to go to the dance floor to 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. This is a great activity if many of your guests are not acquainted with others.
Multiplication
A great way to start dancing is to get your wedding group to invite other 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 brides and grooms learn how to dance so that they can show off their groovy moves. Why not invite the dance teacher to teach simple steps to the crowd? 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. Before getting everyone to dance, the dance teacher will demonstrate the basic dance moves, such as waltz, tango or even rumba, before getting everyone to dance when the music starts.
Having a dance teacher do a bit of teaching not only livens up the reception right from the start, but it gets people out on the dance floor who might otherwise be too self-conscious normally to get out there and let it all hang out. 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 use these ideas to get your guests onto the dance floor instead of hiring expensive bands or performers to liven up the mood.
