Then throughout the evening, The Godfather and the wedding party will mingle at the tables, dance with guests, and make everyone experience the hilarious fantasy of actually being at the wedding of The Godfather’s daughter!

You can dance The Hora and Tarantella, bust a move with the bride or groom, or just relax and watch the fun as volunteers from the audience participate in a variety of comedy sketches and so much more. At The Godfather’s Meshuggener Wedding, you’ll dance and laugh until the tears roll!
