38 real weddings SPRING/SUMMER 2016
through into "a very pumpy swing dance"
version of Florence and the Machine's "Kiss
With a Fist."
"We practiced for months because Jordan
isn't great at rhythm and he absolutely nailed
it," Victoria says proudly.
To be sure everyone could join them in
kicking up their heels, the couple had a dance
instructor on hand to offer guests 30-minute
swing-dancing lessons.
And even though a few other things were
to go sideways during the celebration – "We
forgot to do the garter toss, wedding cake and
throw the bouquet" – it wasn't a big issue for
the bride, who shrugs: "It just slipped our
minds. We were so busy having fun!"

Cecil Green Park
House at UBC
was the setting for
guests to dine off
long, family-style
tables decorated
with soft greenery
and crisp white
linens. Twinkle lights
created a dreamy
atmosphere during a
buffet dinner.
