The last dance at the very end of the wedding night is a chance to draw a close to a wonderful wedding day. Either you or the Wedding DJ should pick a meaningful song and finish the day with another memorable moment.

Yes, brides are allowed to make speeches if they'd like to.
Equal rights and equal opportunities.

It doesn't happen often, so it stands out in peoples minds. Therefore, it's a nice way to make your wedding even more memorable.

As well as taking the opportunity to publicly acknowledge your loved ones.

Or, in Tasha's case, apologising to her parents for your entire teenage years. 

When does the bouquet throw happen?
It can happen at any time. It's a quick little fun set-up. It doesn't have to precede or follow anything.

It's something worth considering, just don't think about the florists bill when you do it. I had a pre-wedding meeting once and I asked this question. The bride answered 'No chance!'  Her reason for such a strong responce was because minutes before I'd rang the door bell, she'd had written out a cheque for her florist.

Just pinch one from your bridesmaid.

There's a pattern in these first dance photographs. With only the bride and groom on the dancefloor to begin with, and everyone else on their feet and close by.
The next picture, in most cases, shows the end of the first dance with other people joining in with the first dance.

It's tradition.
