Wedding reception surprises. Heartwarming surprise ideas (1–10)
Musical-style surprise
The intro was a lively surprise packed with gags: one moment they were offering congratulatory remarks while singing the song from the scene in Beauty and the Beast where the two understand each other and dance, and the next they were collecting money from the audience while singing a number from the movie Chicago.
Flash mob by the wedding venue staff
The surprise flash mob by the venue staff begins right as the bride and groom take commemorative photos with the guests at the reception.
Everyone gets to watch a full-fledged dance up close, and the bride and groom join in, too.
It’s a surprise idea for the guests.
Groom’s surprise proposal
This is a surprise video in which the groom makes an unexpected proposal during the wedding reception.
After receiving the ring, the bride bows deeply with joy, while the groom, looking both a little proud and shy, is endearingly charming.
It’s the kind of video that makes you wish many people would try a surprise like this.

Surprise pregnancy announcement to my mother
This is a surprise video where we announce a third pregnancy to the mother during the wedding reception.
Since not even the guests, let alone the mother, know about it, you get to see the amusing sight of everyone being shocked.
The mother’s reaction when she hears the news is also entertaining, so it’s a recommended video for anyone considering a surprise.
A surprise dance by the groom and the groom’s friends
It begins with a surprise dance by the groom’s friends wearing only swim trunks, and midway through the groom takes off his tuxedo, puts on swim trunks, and starts dancing with them.
The lively dance has the whole venue buzzing.
In the end, the groom is carried by his friends to his seat—a delightful surprise.
Surprise dance
It’s not a surprise from the guests, but a surprise video from the bride and groom to the guests to express their gratitude.
The staff also dance to the music, and the lighting and camera work further heighten the excitement.
I think it’s a wonderful flash mob that the guests can enjoy just by watching and get into the groove.
Slow-Motion Baseball Surprise
A surprise for the groom, who was on the high school baseball team, from his friends who were also teammates.
They’re performing a slow-motion baseball skit on stage.
With some humorous touches, it culminates in a touching surprise featuring a video of memories from their high school days and messages from his friends.
