Question
What is the Dollar Dance?
Answer
A Mexican wedding tradition, guests get in line to donate bills to the brides in exchange for a dance to wish them luck in their marriage and on their honeymoon. We will have some bills available in exchange for Venmo and will also provide the pins. The amount is up to you, from one dollar bills up to as high as you would like! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6_oo44uLH8
Question
La Vibora de la Mar
Answer
The snake dance! The brides will stand on a chair, holding the veil between them. A few chosen people will surround each bride to support her. Whoever wants to participate gets in a line, separated by men and woman, to create the snakes. When the music starts, the line leader begins to walk/run and lead the line around the room around the tables and the brides! As the line moves past the brides, guests bump into them to try to knock them off the chairs.
