Rock The Dance Floor At Your Wedding
Most wedding receptions include dancing. 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 want to add some fun elements to the dance floor? Some activities are going to extremely popular. For those who prefer to have fun, you can try a game of the “chicken dance”. So, if you don’t mind chuckles, and want people to get on the dance floor, you may try this.
Stick numbers beneath the chairs. Tell|Ask] your guests to look under their chairs when the number is shouted out. 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 great if you wish to let your guests mingle with other guests, especially if you have many singles at your wedding. 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. 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. 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, a little bit of the tango, before the music officially begins and dancing 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 extremely 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.
