At this point, Becky has already surprised me by donning the (OMG! SO FABULOUS!) party hat, brown sash & brooch. Right about now is where Becky & Damon are really going to give me a shock…
Here’s the first dance. They are just waltzing around the dance floor:
And then … The Evolution of Dance! Now, I’m no newbie. I’ve shot that sucker a few times but I did have hint that it was coming. Sometimes it was only from a subtle inkling that that the couple was a little feisty. However, I didn’t have a single clue that Becky & Damon were going to rip this sucker out. Then, suddenly, the music ceases. Damon throws his hands in the air, Becky shoots me a “what the heck?” look and then the first song comes on. Elvis Presley’s “Hound Dog”.
The light bulb comes on for me, I shoot my lighting assistant a look and we go into full on ‘Evolution of Dance mode’!
The crowd loved it.
