Samoan Wedding Dance

A Samoan bride, her mother, and her sister perform a traditional dance at the wedding reception as the crowd goes wild. The bride keeps her beautiful beaming smile throughout, and her head straight to keep the headdress intact. Those who know inform us that people joining in is a tradition that emphasizes the talent and synchronicity of the dancers by contrasting it with their not-so-smooth moves. The napkin-waving symbolizes a blessing to the newlyweds. A joyous occasion, indeed.
