Anniversary Dance

I love doing this one right after the Mother-Son Dance because it keeps parents and the newlyweds on the dancefloor one more round. For this dance, you invite out all married couples for a dance. You then have an Emcee announce for all couples who have been married less than a DAY, to remove themselves… That’s YOU TWO! {This gives you a fantastic window in the timeline to go out for sunset pictures!} The DJ then announces for couples who have been married less than a year, 5 years, 10 years… and so on until you’re left with the longest married couple still on the floor. The sap in me loves this because it gives them a spotlight and public tribute to their success as a couple. If you’re not tossing your bouquet you can award it to them as a trophy!

An anniversary dance at a wedding or celebration is a special moment where married couples are invited onto the dance floor to share a dance together. Often, the DJ or emcee will gradually ask couples who have been married for shorter periods to step aside, leaving the longest-married couple dancing alone in the spotlight. This beautiful tradition honors enduring love and commitment, creating a heartfelt and memorable moment for all guests.
