We did that at our wedding! We had the band play the song, "You're Still The One" by Shania Twain for our version. We had 20 couples who were still out there for the 25 years of marriage group (including my mom and dad, and my husband's mom and dad)! We had 6 couples who were out there for 50 years of marriage or more...and my husbands maternal grandparents were the last ones on the dance floor at 62 years of marriage (and still going strong)!

Later, the lead singer of the band told me that she's done that same dance at a number of weddings, and she's never seen so many people still out there for the longer durations...she said she was having a hard time choking back the tears.

It was very sweet, everyone at the reception loved it, and it was a nice way to start out our marriage--by celebrating the marriages of our close friends and family members.
