I totally agree with all the comments. The bride dances well enough to be one of the Polonaise group? The groom was good also and you could feel how much he was on a cloud that day. I've watched it over and over and it never fails to put a smile on my face. Jimmy Sturr is so special as well and is still the best by far. Just a treat for me

My blood comes right off the border of Poland and Slovakia. I have both polish and Slovakian cousins! I love this music!!!! I play the accordion as well. I was privileged to play my clarinet at Wurstfest with Jimmy sturr in 2012!

looks like my wedding 46 years ago......my dad and I danced like this. great time...nothing like Polish music

My Polish grandparents' wedding reception in 1929 lasted 3 days. Thanks for posting this, the Polish weddings from my childhood are some of the best memories I have.

Typical Polish wedding; everyone out of breath; Love it! This brings back so many wonderful memories.

my wife and I are married 62 years and had our wedding at polish cadets in buffalo NY. we had 2 polish orchestras play at our festivities. lasted till 3 am Sunday morn. what a wonderful time 350 guest had. what's headache a lot of men had the next morning!

Thank you. This is how I recall weddings in the 1950’s…does my heart good, thanks for sharing.

I love watching this wedding over & over...Reminds me of our polish Wedding...

Wonderful, fun, joyous Polish wedding. We Poles really know how to throw a party!

looks like fun,nothing better than drinking beer and polka music :)

I loved being part of the Polonaise Dancers.

Hats off to these people being able to dance like this! Love it!

This brings back so many wonderful memories I love it!!!

Wow! That is such a beautiful and traditional Polish wedding. Loved watching the dancing. Cheered me up. Looks like you just celebrated your 31 year so marriage. Sto lat!

IMO, the Jimmy Sturr Orchestra is perfection, they possess a smooth and flowing tempo and watch the fabulous Polonaise Dancers, they are Polka Hopping on air !!!. This is First Class. Heaven at its very best. It doesn't get any better than this. Thank you for allowing me to post at this video. ~Joe W.

I love the Polish culture. They have a lot of things that us Americans don't.

Boy they don't have weddings like this anymore in Buffalo NY miss them :)

Gratulacje dla wspaniałej Orkiestry Jimmy Sturr oraz dla Zespołu Tanecznego!

@drc3po Thanks for the comment David & Laura still going strong 28 years later.

This video has no million dollar special effects and no academy award winning actors but it's nontheless the finest 15 minutes ever recorded on film. None of the terrors of history can ever crush the spirit of the Poles. And Jesus may have made the lame get up and walk, but Jimmy Sturr (an Irishman!) could make them polka! The best wedding party ever--I hope the bride and groom have had a happy life together.

This makes me wish I were Polish; they seem like they know how to have fun.

This video is awesome! The Polonaise Dancers are fantastic! Jimmy Sturr and his Orchestra performed well. I've been to several Polish weddings in Indiana with Polish polka bands, but have never seen a Polish wedding reception quite like this one. This wedding reception had to cost some serious zloty!

KUDOS to the bride for being able to dance in her dress and veil...

Those were the days! Love it!

Great polka music - not as loud as the fire and brimstone music of the recent wedding we were at. LOL

Nothing like a Polish wedding! So much happiness.

This is great. Thanks for sharing. You can't help but be happy and laugh and enjoy as you watch this.

Sto lat!! Just beautiful

12-12-81 42 years ago today for me and the Mrs. Starlite Ballroom, Stevens point Wisconsin. Duane Burclaw and the Golden Aces provided the polkas for us. Just brings back memories. Thanks for taping and sharing!

Love this!!!!!!! A real wedding!!!’n Mine was just like this

Oh so much fun!!!!

Wow byutiful weddind

Fantastic

Great, great, great polka dancing by REAL non-professional folks! WONDERFUL

I loved this so much, thank you for posting it. This celebration reminded me of every wedding that I attended during my childhood!

thank you so much for sharing this most beautiful video. Oh what fun! I must say it made me cry and I write this through tear-filled eyes now, as it reminds me of my mother and her 5 sisters. Oh how they loved to polka and could they ever..6 stunning beauties...all gone now except my 85 yr old mother. thank you for bringing back a flood of wonderful memories. May there be many more Blessed years of happiness to this couple.

I'd like to see David and Laura today in 2020!!!!!

A wonderful celebration! Perfect!

Although , I'm not Polish they love to have a good time and thet do it very well.

Music is great. Dancers are phenominal! Love it. Brings back memories.

The costumes look like something that originated in the mountain country of Southern Poland. These dancers remind me of the dancers on a ted matzamowitz album I acquired in 1955.

Proud to be (part) Polish! ♥

boy oh boy! what youthfu memories this music brings back. we would dance to the king brothers polka music all night!

Very good energy!

Love this video. thank you!

awesome. i grew up in north east ohio. moved to Wilmington NC. Chardon polka band comes to St Stans in Castle Hayne every year.A blast from the past.

MAGNIFIQUE

Vatna. Dobra.Top Super Beautiful wedding And Music and Dans.Wunderschon. Kracivoje. Jamilata. Ziba. Jafa.Ciruner. Muy Bello . Bonita. Bravo. Merci.

This video is amazing, it brought back so many memories of this particular talented dance group. It was great to find this video on youtube and start saying names of people that I can recognize as they dance by. They used to be so much fun to watch and also dance with after they performed. Thanks for posting this, it really made me smile.

Need a nap after watching this...geez!

This is so awesome. I see ther are 12 thumbs down......how could that possibly be?

Wonderfull!!!

Yeppers Wandziu, its the PolkaNutJoe, at video location 6:12, IMO, this IS THE perfect Wedding Dress for doing the Polka Hop !!!!

Wonderful video

Happy 25th anniversary

Remember the Polish Club on Mt.Vernon Ave...great bands played there Ed.

Teach me to dance like that!!

Love it. ❤️

I assume the Bride and Groom danced with this dance troupe? Usually you have to either hire a troupe, or else, if they all showed up, they would be doing it celebrating the marriage of 1 or 2 of their dancing companions getting hitched. Of course, back in the day, all you needed to do was tell someone "my sister or my cousin" (or whomever, most everyone knew each other from School, growing up together in the 'hood or Church.) is getting married and you'd have at least 300-500 people there at the drop of a hat. That's the way Polish Weddings were when I was growing up. Fun times w/the family!

name of the first song is IDZIA LA LA polka.

Top. Super Beautieful. Vatna. Wonder schon.Muy Bello. Bonita. Bella. Bravo. Merci.

Expenses were much, much cheaper back then. The cooks who worked at the weddings were paid a pittance, food was much cheaper, the bride and groom ordered enough for several hundred people, there was no charging 'by the plate' as has been the standard practice for many years now, weddings were held in church or fire halls---nothing fancy but it was the cheaper way to go and have a lot of people attend weddings. Everyone came--kids, babies, the very old. It really was a better time back then.

Fantastic video !

OH WHAT FUN !

eieiei o! eieiei O! God Bless Poland!

I need to get married lmao .

that escalated quickly!! :D

This was filmed at either a White Eagles Hall or a Knights of Columbus Hall.

Lovely polished girls....

Seriously 6 girls? How wonderfull :) God Bless

Pani Mloda

Looks similar to krakowiak. Learning polka now. Polish american. Hopefully I can marry a polish woman

Mmmm, confused seeing both Krakowiak and Polka steps combined into one dance! But hey, they all looked like having a great time !

How do I learn how to do that dance?

The bride is the one who is wearing the clean Bowling shirt!

Looking at the video this seems to be quite old video ... Today in USA (and Canada) there aren't enough young Polish people ... But I bet this soon, if not already, is happening in ... England.

Dommage que lon ne portent pas las vetement au quotidien.

i often wonder why the boys are wearing what looks like a kilt.

Hi David & Laura, If you ever consider renewing your wedding vows for your 30th anniversary with Jimmy Sturr, can I PLEASE, PLEASE get an invitation?

1970s:/1980s? ❤👌

very good, Where is the Sausage? B CCanada

I harbaca & dence

Where is the chicken and rigatoni

this is more a Polish-American wedding. The 2-step is more of an American polka move, not so much Polish......but definitely fun.

Vivat krakow

Is this at the Polish Hall🇵🇱 in Port Washington, Long Island,NY?

At 11:57 I didn't know that Mrs. Doubtfire was Polish!!!!!!!

was this 1982

Super les Danses traditionnelles , mais à la sauce USA ....

A typical ? No kidding.

that family must be rich to hire the sturr orch,, jimmy sturr told me personaly he wanted to do a stint on the jay leno show,, leno turned him down!

It looks nice , but quite different from Balkan as in music .

Too bad that tall blond guy danced for a little while!!!!!

You dont have to be polish to dance this stuff, i knew a scotsman who could dance a polka just like in the vid.

the men are obviously gay, i praise the tolerance.

Saved this from You Tube 2 years ago. Check the groom out.
