The parents are seated on chairs in the center of the dance floor. The guests dance around them, sometimes lavishing them with flowers and kisses or crowning them with a wreath of flowers. Frequently the dance is performed to a Yiddish song called, "The Youngest Daughter is Given." Post Reply Name Email Title Please keep title brief and descriptive.
