When we tried to start filming, a flash mob began, and it kept growing in number and becoming more extravagant.

The staff dancers perform highly advanced moves that are truly surprising.

It’s a delightful flash mob to watch, with dancers even joining in from among the clapping spectators.

This is a video where a groom who doesn’t know the Koi Dance at all is made to perform it as a surprise.

Unusually for a surprise, it’s the groom who performs, and rather than focusing on celebrating, the emphasis is on everyone having fun together.

Because that’s the intention behind the surprise, the surrounding guests can join in and enjoy the excitement too.
