A ballerina bride had the surprise of her life when her new husband and his groomsmen performed an incredible dance routine at their wedding reception.

Valerie, a professional ballerina with the Richmond Ballet, met her husband, Kirk, while working with the company. Years later, they opted to get married at the same theater where their love story began—CenterStage in Richmond, Virginia.

During the reception, Kirk and his groomsmen astonished his wife with a high-energy dance routine. Valerie’s surprised expression told it all: she had no idea and was clearly overcome with excitement.

Smiles, laughter, and clapping filled the auditorium, commemorating their union in a way that seemed authentic to who they are.

May we gratefully and joyfully appreciate the individuals God has given us and enjoy the love He has brought into our lives.
