Hey my beautiful sisters :)
So the thing that makes Zambian weddings big is the dance routines!!! usually a wedding here has about ummmm six dance routines namely;
Entering of the church by the bridal party (usually a slow song)
Exiting the church after pronounced Husband and Wife (up beat celebration song)
Bride and Groom intro at the reception (upbeat celebration song)
Bridal party intro (upbeat celebration song)
Bride and Groom's dance after cutting of the cake (slow romantic song)
Opening of the dance floor by the bridal party (upbeat celebration song)
So we've started our dance rehearsals, we didnt hire a choreographer cause we have a couple who are our close friends who an shake their bum bums like no man's business who are doing that for us. All is going on well and i love our routines so far :)
Are you doing any special dance routines at your wedding?
