Modern Day Wedding Dances: Couples Break Traditional Rules

Miss Marilyn
Likely, you have seen the popular video featured on news stations featuring a couple moving from a traditional wedding dance into the popular hip hop classic 'Baby Got Back.' It was featured on Ellen in December 2007. Well, they started a trend that has couples everywhere thinking, "Gee, we should do something like that." Some of the popular break-downs that are featured on YouTube are as follows:

Baby Got Back: Classic
This couple started off by a classic from Kenny Rogers, it was all traditional until the DJ brought out "Baby Got Back." They were prepared to break down the walls of tradition in this memorable classic.

Favorite of All Time
This video has my thumbs up! The bride and groom involved different song titles and involved the audience. This was perfection!

Wedding Thriller Dance
There's nothing like bringing Michael Jackson back. This wedding group did a great job in reinventing the movie from the popular track "Thriller." If you're considering doing something like this, you may gather all your ideas from here.

California Love
This traditional Indian wedding starts off with the bride and groom enjoying their traditional first dance. Then they suddenly go back in time and start their California Love jam. The guests were probably not expecting this.

MC Hammer Time
This couple is certainly ready to party. The laughs in the audience will tell you that its obvious everyone is having a great time.

    Great fun! There's nothing wrong with adding a little spice to the reception.

    Pardon me, the song was Elvis Presley's "A Little Less Conversation"!

    This is great! There was a scene sort of like this in CBS' hit sitcom "Everybody Loves Raymond," where Ray Romano's newlywed on-air brother, Robert (Brad Garrett) and his wife Amy (forgot her name) dance to "Jungle Love." Very interesting!
