Dance Floor Activities with the Wedding DJ

Dancing is a necessary element at most wedding receptions. We anxiously wait for the couple's "first dance" and the bride's special dance with her dad. It's also a moment to get loose and funky, if you're a guest or a member of the wedding celebration.

But what if the wedding dj planners decided to add some enjoyment and surprise to the dance floor by adding fun activities there? This doesn't mean a stirring version of the "Bunny Hop", which, while perhaps necessary, is barely unique. There are, however, many fun games and activities you can add to your dance floor activities that are sure to be a hit you just have to plan accordingly with the wedding DJ.

Try an amusing game like the "chicken dance". Perhaps that doesn't sound too original. But if nearly every one of your guests is just sitting at their tables, watching a few valiant couples dancing, or just concluding their meals, you might want to get them up and having fun. Try this game.

The wedding DJ announces a number. Everybody looks under his or her chair, where there is a number. Depending on the number of guests at the wedding, there may be only numbers "1" and "2" or more, up to 5.

So, say the wedding DJ announces number "4". Each individual checks under their chair to see what their number is. These numbers can be written basically on a piece of masking tape and attached to the underside of the chairs when the reception is being set up. Each "4" in this situation will head to the dance floor to perform the chicken dance with the other "4s". Not only does this get folks out of their chairs and on to the dance floor, they also get to know other wedding reception guests they may not otherwise know.

One dance floor activity that's becoming so popular is to bring in a dance teacher for the wedding reception. As a sort of pre-dance activity, the teacher will promptly ask to walk people through their paces on the dance floor, possibly teaching a bit of the waltz or, for something entirely different, a little bit of the tango, before the wedding DJ can officially play music and dancing starts.

Having a dance teacher do a bit of teaching not only livens up the reception right from the beginning, but it gets persons out on the dance floor who might otherwise be too self-conscious generally to get out there and let it all hang out. In other words, it will probably make the wedding guests feel more secure in their skills before the "official" dancing with the wedding DJ begins.

Yet another fun activity to get one and all on the dance floor, counting even the most uncommunicative, is something you can refer to as the "snowball" dance. This is an excellent way to get the guests dancing at the beginning of the evening.

Here's how the "snowball" dance works. The wedding party, including the bride and groom, will head to the dance floor for a fun dance. The wedding DJ should play music for this dance that is fast, something with a disco beat or a fast song that most people have at least a passing acquaintance with. After a bit of wedding party dancing, the music suddenly stops. The females of the wedding party start moving into the crowd and bring back one male each. The males of the wedding party do the same, but they bring in female guests. The dancing then starts again. This is repeated until all the guests are dancing. It's truly a snowball effect!
