Apologies for delay in announcing the winners. Life has been hectic but I’m back so here you go! The judges, of course, are my Husband and Daughter who are very objective
We have one winner for the entry: Money Dance at your wedding, anyone?
The winner is….. entry#25!
I had a money dance. It was completely separate from the first dance and i danced with a bridal handbag instead of having everyone pin money on me. When my husband told me he wanted to do a money dance to help with spending money for Hawaii, I was very skeptical. I too thought it was distasteful. However, now that I’ve had one, I would highly recommend a money dance because it gives the bride and groom a chance to dance with all the guests and say, “Thanks” to everyone in person. To be honest, I think people enjoy knowing the fact that they helped out the new couple even in a small way. Even the kids love it!
Congratulations Linda! You are the lucky winner of a Bagette Coin Clutch!

More winners after the jump!
