Kristen and Kelsey's First Dance

The fun-loving couple decided to kick off the evening's celebrations by throwing their guests for a loop. "We had a long-running joke that, despite our Protestant heritage, it would throw our guests off completely if we began the wedding with a Hora. Plus, when would we ever again have the opportunity to see our parents hoisted up on chairs?" says Kristen. "Our band complied and although initially met by a lot of confused looks from our guests, everyone joined us out on the dance floor and had a blast, laughing because they would expect something like this from Kelsey and me."
