That's tough. Probably would have to be somewhere where the iPhones don't work, there's no TV, and there's lots of good food and drink. I think our biggest struggle is to put down the devices and pay attention to each other...so any place/time where we could do that would be really nice/ideal
.

My dad really wanted our father-daughter dance to be a swing dance. I don't know how to swing dance and didn't have time to learn, so we compromised that we'd have a different father-daughter dance and work in a swing dance later in the reception. It was a lot of fun!
