I think they were thinking the whole time about becoming You Tube celebs, rather than about making covenants to each other and to God in a service of worship.

I thought it was GREAT!! I don't see anything wrong with it being in a church.
Heck, God was probably tapping His feet, too![]()
Ecclesiastes 3: 1
"To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven.
....A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to to mourn, and A TIME TO DANCE."
Everyone had their own interpretation of dance.
This was the couple's time to dance.
I personally LOVED IT (although my Roman Catholic family would have crawled beneath the pews if I had done it)![]()
And to those of you who think some of us are making this all about religion...the bride and groom chose to be married in what appears to be a very traditional Christian church. There are so many locations in which a couple can choose to get married. If you aren't religious and don't want a religious atmosphere to your wedding, by all means, have the ceremony somewhere else.
No one is saying that an $8000 dress and everything perfect for the bridezillas is any more appropriate.We all worship in our own way. I think it was great.
It was a terrific start to a marriage, as opposed to some now where they have to have the 8,000 dress, everybody has to be perfect, basically bridezillas. How is that apropriate?
I would say that since the minister is a woman, the church is probably not all that traditional. Generally the most conservative denominations don't ordain women. I know our pastor (also a woman) would rejoice at this kind of celebratory beginning to a marriage. Of course, we tend to dance and clap in church every Sunday, so it wouldn't be anything really new. I like when praising sounds joyful.

Also, I couldn't believe it when the bride said she was a dancer, even in college, because I thought she had the most awkard movements of any of them.
Bet you they weren't! Plenty of people tape weddings and post to Youtube, without people taking notice. This was lovely, but has no aspect of "Look at me now" "I'm a big star". It was simple, nice and casual with very little rehearsal.

I think this would have been more appropriate for the reception, not in a church![]()
