Question

Will we get to do some Greek dancing?

Answer

You bet! To honor the bride's Greek heritage, we'll be playing a couple of traditional Greek songs during the reception. One of the most popular dances, the Kalamatianos, is a simple and fun 12-step dance performed in a circle while holding hands. Greek dancing is a way of bringing people together, and we’d love for you to join in! If you'd like to be prepared before getting swept into a dance circle, watch this quick 2-minute tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yq1kxg1Jii0 When the music starts, just grab a spot in the circle, follow along, and have fun with us!
