What is a dollar danc?....

The "dollar dance" is a tradition in many cultures-- in the Mexican American culture (from what my students tell me)-- the bride has a purse that she keeps during the dance. Friends and relatives give the new couple money for good luck-- but I also saw this done at a REAL Greek wedding (meaning people from Greece). I have also seen "wishing wells" where people drop money into a cardboard well.
