Remember the days when getting married only involved getting a white dress, making sure the groom shows up on time, and ordering enough cake to go round? We neither. The popularity of posting videos on YouTube has given birth to the latest wedding trend - Wedding Choreography.
Check out the creme de la creme of entertaining wedding dance routines below, courtesy of Mashable.com. Who knows, you might want to "trip the light fantastic" yourself by imitating a couple of these moves for your own walk down the aisle:
1. JK Wedding Entrance Dance
Now going on 50 million views, this wedding video went about as viral as it possibly could. What made it such a hit? The unorthodox fun of dancing down the aisle to a great pop song — and the sheer joy of the occasion shining through. It has even spawned parodies, resurrected a career and was paid homage on The Office.
2. Mammothian Surprise Group Wedding Reception Dance
It looks as if the entire wedding party practiced pretty hard for this Gorillaz number. Bonus points for the inclusion of some sweet robot moves.
3. Rina & Nick's Wedding – CRAZY First Dance
This couple keeps it tight with their chosen medley of songs, all "crazy" themed, as they crank out some superb steps on their special day.
4. Crazy Wedding Ceremony!
Each member of the wedding party gets their own entrance theme as they make their way down the dry ice-filled aisle. We wouldn't attempt to elbow in on the dance floor at this reception.
5. Dirty Dancing UK – Julia and James First Dance
Nobody puts Baby in the corner at this celebration. This British couple painstakingly recreate the famous Swayze/Grey dance from the finale of Dirty Dancing, including (unlike some other DD wedding sequences) the bride's dress, which is tailor-made to look like the one from the movie.
6. Best First Dance Brubaker
A YouTube classic, this couple's hip hop interlude (which starts with the wonderful line "I like big butts and I cannot lie") and wacky dance routine is juxtaposed quite spectacularly to the romantic slow dance it interrupts.
7. Best First Dance EVER!
A surprise to the wedding guests, this couple executes a fantastic routine, and they appear to have lots of fun doing it — which makes all the difference.
8. First Dance with Surprise Jack Johnson Michael Jackson
As Jack Johnson's mellow tones fade out, this funky couple hit it with a bit of MJ, much the obvious delight of the crowd. Some nifty moves from both the bride and groom have helped this clip surpass 12 million views.
9. Wedding Thriller Dance
Zombies might not be what spring to mind when you think about a first wedding dance, but considering how effective this entire wedding party is at performing Thriller, maybe we should rethink it.
10. Wedding Dance – Hilarious!!!
This wedding dance is bonkers — a full-on girls versus boys dance-off. We have to say we think the boys might be victorious here, but everyone's a winner when you're having that much fun.
