Many of our friends enjoy swing dancing, and when there is a live band, as there
was at the United Kingdom Garden, dancing is sure to break out. The dancing
attracts lots of spectators. Often we find new acquaintances because they enjoy
the swing dancing also.
We found that
dancers come in all
ages and sizes. Each
dancing couple has
their own style, but
they are all a pleasure
to watch. Dancers
often fine other
partners to join them
for a dance.
Dapper Day also brings out romance. Ray and Joanie were introduced as
one of the first kissing couples to be filmed in a group setting. It looks like
Daniel and Ann Marie might be quickly replacing them.
Every time a group of friends finds each other, a group photo happens.
We always have lots of cameras and several photographers are
followers of the Dapper Day crowd.
Jessica is an avid vintage shopper and has a great collection
of vintage items. She sometimes has sales to downsize
some of her accumulations, and many of our friends have
been able to get beautiful hats or dresses from her. In this
photo, Ray is carrying an authentic doctor’s bag that Jessica
found. It is in very good condition and he was able to
purchase it from Jessica for a reasonable price.
Some group photos are planned and orchestrated. Marina is our coordinator for many of the best group shots. On
Dapper Day weekends, we often end up with a few people in the photo that we don’t know, but it is OK with us. And
often after the formal group photo, tourists will ask if they can get a photo with the group. We all have fun with the
opportunities of the day.
Marina is well-known for doing dramatic photobombs of group
pictures. Joanie couldn’t resist taking the opportunity to do one of her
own, mostly as a tribute to Marina’s signature move.
Sometimes getting a group photo is referred to as trying to herd a bunch of cats. It takes a lot of
coordination and direction to get everyone in place where they can be seen by the
photographers. These photos just show you how many people are trying to get in place and be
instructed as to where to stand for the photo. Once we have all found our spots, the
photographers do a countdown so everyone is looking forward and ready for the picture. As you
can see from some of the group photos, all of the preparation is worth it when we get such lovely
pictures. We appreciate all of the photographers who make this work.
Our friend Ann P. always has to take a selfie with th group once the
formal group photo is finished.
Sean does wonderful photos and has begun to take selfies
with some of the smaller groups so that people can see how
wonderfully he has dressed for the events. Isn’t he dapper?
Candace painted all of the Mickey
characters on her skirt by hand. She
has done several others, but this is
the first time most of us have seen
her work, and we were all in awe of
how perfect each one was.
Travis is quiet and
unassuming, but he
travels around the park
getting good photos of
many people. We love
seeing the work of the
different photographers.
Ann P and her famous group selfies. We always look forward to seeing her, and
being a small part of her selfie.
There are many wonderful photographs posted during Dapper Day weekend. We don’t always know
who the photographer was, but we like to be able to show you how special everyone looks during the
weekend. Come join the groups! You will be amazed at how friendly everyone is and how happy you
will be.
