1. I'm glad when we got married

nobody was expected to put on a show.

It was hard enough just having to do that first dance!

7. I've been in the "audience"

more times than I like at what I had thought were gatherings of friends and family. Granted, most of the performances weren't professional quality. But really, some people just can't get off the stage.

2. That last trick or illusion was amazing..

and I have no idea how he could do that..I supposed I will never know unless I became a magician. I am sure its in some book somewhere..or even on line.

3. you can see white jets of air coming from the carpet... you can see them in the photo. :-)

4. okay so whats the significance of that?

I been looking on line and saw various uses of bars, but the carpet appears to have no bar that would extend up his leg or attach to a brace on his back.

6. There must be a device beneath the platform/carpet that shoots strong jets of air

He would just those as a platform for his back. At least that is my guess.

8. that much air ..would not only hold him up

but you would see his clothes look like he was in a windstorm, i think there probably is another explanation.

5. That is a very glamorous gown

Perfect for that very clever performance. But, I agree, this wedding reception showmanship is kind of getting a little over the top.

9. Show people will be show people, artists will be artists...

... let them be.

And let be too the people who choose to have very simple weddings because they enjoy the simple things of life.

It's disturbing in this society how we are taught to literally buy our way into lifestyles that do not reflect the true needs and desires of our inner selves.

11. Yea - sometimes we can get a bit too stuffy, I guess

I did see one video where the bride and groom did a zip line entrance and crashed into each other. And one involving sky diving that just didn't end well. So, dancing and magic tricks are, at least, semi catastrophe resistant.

I used to watch 'Bridezillas' and also noticed that these performance rehearsals can be more traumatic than a broken bone. So, good one for those who can pull them off as brilliantly as this couple managed.

10. Awesome surprise routine for their wedding

I'm sure guests were not disappointed. I give them lotsa kudos for being original and classy. No one expects us regular muggles to do that, btw.
