We're not, even though our band offered it.

We didn't want the dancers to compete with us for attention. The wedding is about us, its not a performance.

I doubt I will lack any attention on MY wedding day!

I was saying Dancers to get the crowd going?

or to help along with some fun dances..

I think I might want a belly dancer at the coctail hr!

Dancers make me think Sweet 16 or Bar Mitzvah. The tend to command attention, and a lot of people are put off by them, and won't dance because they are. The crowd will get going with a great playlist! Not to worry!

The Belly dancer would be fun though!

I'm not having the kind of dancers that DJ's have if that's what anyone was thinking.. My wedding sure as heLL will not be a sweet 16 or ba/bat mitzvah.

Anyone was me, and I was thinking shiny shirts, Macarena, and yes, DJ dancers..I wasn't trying to insult, just stating what I thought of when I thought dancers. I'm sure your wedding won't be anything like a Sweet 16 Marcella...

no, it wasn't.. it was towards Alina as well..

there are professional dancers and then there are DJ dancers.. BIG DIFFERENCE.

I am not, but I think it is a nice touch to have dancers.

I was actually tossing the idea around of having professional dancers - a couple or 2, no more - to dance the tango or salsa - something sexy and commanding. I thought it would be fun & interesting for us & our guests.

I don't think it takes attention away from the bride & groom - i think it adds to the festivities of the evening.

I know, and that's what I meant. Please don't be insulted by anything I said, I don't want it to be misconstrued.

Re: Is anyone having dancers?

Marcella I had the same thought - the only times I have seen them are at bar/bat mitzvahs but maybe I don't know what you mean because I have never seen any at weddings? Do you mean like the people who dress in black and dance near the DJ and try to get everyone going? Or - ?

Re: Is anyone having dancers?

oohhhhh.....do you mean like what cp said?

Jordan Posted:

Re: Is anyone having dancers?

No Thrilled, those are DJ dancers. I *believe* she's talking about professional ballroom dancers. Correct me if I'm wrong Marcella.

I am not having them for my wedding but i hired professional Tango Dancers for my Moms 50th B-day party at Westbury Manor and I must say it was the BEST present for my parents and GREAT entertainment.

Marcella, I was referring to the professional dancers that tend to put on a show for wedding guests, not the DJ dancers that get the crowd going
