Surprise dances and epic speeches

They can be pretty cool! I like the more sentimental things then the big showy things though. But no we won't be having that type of thing, lol!

Those can be super cool and fun. Mine didn't have any surprising elements but I would have welcomed it if it had

I would love to do a surprise dance for FH, but I only have 2 girls, one out of state and one is pregnant. So...not happening.

Hey Jessica!! These surprises are so fun to watch at weddings! I've definitely also been guilty of falling down a YouTube rabbit hole and watching 20 in a row!!

I think reading a poem that you wrote would be super special and memorable on your wedding day!! You could even get it printed out in a beautiful layout and frame it to display in your house after your wedding if you'd like!

I'm doing a dance with my bridesmaids

View Quoted Comment My girls are out of town too. I sent them a video and we will rehearse when I come down there for my bridal shower. I'm having my bridal shower early since I'm out of town too

View Quoted Comment I can understand that, I think they are fun but sentimental is more my style too. I’m usually not big on being the center of attention so it gives me a little anxiety, but it is just our closest friends and family so I’ll live!

View Quoted Comment That’s a good attitude to have about it- I can see myself stressing about my timeline being thrown off lol!

View Quoted Comment You and your FH could surprise your guests with a special dance. I just have two MOHs as well, and I know one would absolutely not participate in a dance lol. My other MOH (my cousin) wants her whole wedding party (and their immediate family) to take dance lessons when she gets married, so I foresee choreographed dances in our future.

View Quoted Comment It almost makes you hate the suggested list on YouTube! I also get sucked in by cooking videos! I just think they are so fun and entertaining!

Framing the poem is a great idea, thank you! I’ve seen people frame the song lyrics from their first dance with the picture and I think it’s really cute- I could do something similar with the poem and a picture, maybe the first kiss picture! Thank you!

View Quoted Comment Do you have a videographer that will be capturing it so you two can rewatch it in the future? I’m sure you’ll all have a lot of fun!

View Quoted Comment Yes we do😄

I'm so happy that you like the suggestion!!

Do you write a lot of poetry?

View Quoted Comment I mostly write poetry just for myself, but I’ve published some short stories and I’ve been working on a novel. It has taken me a long time to get to a place I’m willing to share my poetry because it’s usually deeply personal!

Oh wow! That's amazing!

I'm sure the poem that you write for your FH on your wedding day will be absolutely beautiful!!
