Looking for dance ideas!!

Hi everyone-
I'm searching for ideas on a special dance for our reception. We're not going to do the traditional bouquet/garter toss and even though the anniversary dance idea is cute-we can't really do that as well (there are a few reasons why!).
Any other ideas? Any suggestions/opinions are welcome and appreciated!
Thanks!!

We are not doing the garter/bouquet toss nor the anniversary dance either, so we came up with a little neat idea. Around the time we get married, my FI's parents will be married 40 years, so we decided to have their wedding song played and have them dance and then play my parents wedding song and then have them dance. After they dance, I will give my mother and FI's mother a bouquet and my father and FI's father a garter. I thought that was different and a surprise for both set of parents.

That's such a cute idea! I love that!!!
I really should edit my first post-part of the reason we can't have the anniversary dance is my mom passed away about 8 years ago and I think it would depress my father and my FH has divorced parents. Plus-my FH also has an aunt and uncle who have been married just over 70 years-so we'd know they'd win!
Thank you though Nylisa for your idea-it's a great one!

Leelee, I am sorry that I can not have been of help. You do not have to do a special dance at all. How about a dance just invitating everyone to dance (e.g., Tanatella (sp?), Be Are Family, etc.)?
