The Second-Line parade has a deep and rich history in New Orleans. When performed during weddings, it celebrates the beginning of a new life for the couple. The parade consists of two parts. The "First-Line" is the band and the bride and groom while those who follow it along, dancing and often singing as they go, form what is known as the "Second-Line." The Second-Line follows the bride and groom dancing and parading to the lively music while waving handkerchiefs which is called "Second Lining."
