Groom's 'Uptown Funk' surprise dance routine goes viral

The men took to the floor during a wedding reception, to perform a carefully choreographed pop routine of 'uptown funk'.

The newlyweds, Kirk and Valerie Henning, are both professional dancers with the Richmond Ballet in Virginia. They’ve actually shared this very same stage performing together before, but unlike those times, this routine was a complete surprise for Valerie.

“We had it at CenterStage, which was a fun, different venue,” Kirk, 34, told ABC News. “We had dinner on the stage and then we did the father-daughter dance and mother-son dance and everyone was eating and visiting. We all moved out to the lobby for cake cutting and toasts, and once we came back out the band was set up and that’s when the surprise happened.”

But the hard work paid off. As well as delighting his bride, Kirk 's dance routine has become a viral video hit, after being viewed over half a million times in its first 24 hours on youtube.

Judging by this grand gesture, it’s safe to say this bride will have a fairytale romance with her fancy-footed fella.
