The best first dance ever

Here is a video of the best first dance ever from a recent wedding performance at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem.

The band was asked to perform Ray Charles’ “Hallelujah I Love Her So” for Kellian Adams’ and Brian Pletcher’s first dance at their wedding on June 19, 2011.  No one had any idea it was going to involve their entire wedding party and choreographed lindy hop moves!
