Bride Is Shocked After Wedding Guests Break Out in Flash Mob Dance to ABBA's Hit Song ‘Dancing Queen’

Mar. 15, 2025

One bride got the surprise of her life on her big day!

In the video, the bride could be seen on the balcony of the St. James Theatre in Montreal getting ready to toss her bouquet into the crowd of guests who gathered below before the song suddenly came on and the crowd broke out into a dance filled with several iconic moves — similar to the ones featured in theMamma Mia!movie.

Dozens of the wedding guests could be seen moving in sync with practiced moves as they pointed up to the bride, waved their hands in the air from side to side, clapped and moved about the dance floor with big smiles on their faces.

The bride “was the only person” at the reception “who had no idea” that her guests had planned to do this, Melissa Bizdikian, who captured the video, told Storyful.

“In her mind, the plan was to do a bouquet toss over the balcony but a flash mob broke out!,” Bizdikian said.

The idea for the dance came from her mother, who “coordinated, choreographed and recorded” the dance to send to family members so they could practice ahead of time, according toGood Morning America, which reshared the video.

The pair shared a sweet moment as they embraced and the groom kissed his new bride on the forehead before they turned back to watch their guests perform from the balcony. As the dance went on, the bride could be seen swaying along to the music as the groom clapped in time with the song.

For that performance, the bride’s mother danced and lip-synced the words to the song and incorporated the same moves from the film including pointing up and to the side, and wiggling her hands — all while in similar flare pants from the film.
