The OurWeddingDay Blog

Implementing unexpected dances at weddings has become the hot new thing (see: ubiquitous video of the Minnesota couple dancing down the aisle to Chris Brown).  We've seen lots of surprising first dances in our day, but this one takes the cake.

Aaron and Pernel decided to switch it up and break out in a seriously professional-looking swing dance!  The bride changed into a shorter dress and put on some swing dancing shoes and the couple took to the floor.

We wholeheartedly approve of spicing up the first dance if that is your style... bring on the unexpected! For more photos from Aaron and Pernel's gorgeous wedding, check out their photographer's blog here.

We just posted a new article about finding the perfect Chicago Wedding DJs!  It's the latest update to our Chicago Wedding Guide!

Check it out!

And check out our other regularly-updated local wedding guides as well: New York, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, the San Francisco Bay Area and the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex.  We're adding new articles to them all this week!

Remember that little video we posted yesterday? Well it looks like it has blown up all over the internet!  The video has racked up over 1.6 million hits on YouTube (okay... maybe half of those are the OurWeddingDay team trying to perfect our moves), NY Mag blogged about it, and now Perez Hilton just blogged about the video exposing it to millions upon millions of readers.  The couple even went on The Today Show to discuss their recent fame.

Apparently we're quite the trend-setter!
