Wedding Vid Wows 'Em on Web
(CBS)
A wedding video has turned into an Internet sensation.
When Jill Peterson and Kevin Heinz decided to tie the knot last month, they also decided to strut their stuff.
"I think it was actually one of the first things we decided on when we got engaged," Peterson says. "I had always wanted to dance down the aisle."
That's right -- there's dancing at most weddings. But usually that's after the service.
Not so for Peterson and Heniz, reports CBS News Correspondent Susan Roberts.
The dance-crazy St. Paul, Minn. couple and their wedding party put on their best moves as they came down the aisle.
Just a fun private memory? Not quite.
The video was posted on YouTube so friends and family could see it, but it became an instant hit, with more than a million clicks so far.
"It was really exciting and everyone was so happy and into it. It was hard not to have a lot of fun with it," Heinz told CBS station WCCO in Minneapolis.
The couple put the video on YouTube just so friends and family could see it.
"I posted the video on Sunday or Monday," says Heinz, "so the fact that we're even doing this interview (with WCCO) is kind of crazy to us!"
The dancing bride and groom say their wedding was something special.
And what does the future hold?
"Our kids will dance!" Peterson predicts.
"They'll definitely have some rhythm!" Heinz agrees.
