I've been to Illinois and Arizona weddings and there were no dollar dances. Never heard of it. Sounds terrible.

Why only those 2 places?I've been to Missouri, Nebraska, Kansas, Illinois, California off the top of my head and each one had a dollar dance. It's not really a big deal. Everybody who wants to just comes up and dances with the bride or groom for 30 seconds. The best man/maid of honor collect a dollar or whatever you want to give. This is a pretty established tradition that comes from European immigrants poors obviously.

I wouldn't have wanted to do it at my wedding even if I knew it was a thing at the time. Just awful for guests and marrieds alike. I don't want to dance with the bride or groom when I'm a guest. Never crossed my mind. I want to get them a nice gift and party hardy. As far as why only those two places, I'm not the boss of where people I know get married.
My wife made over $1200 dollars on our dollar dance. I thought they should do it again! Also, if you are only giving a buck, then you are a jayhawk outted.
"Chi-pol-tay"
It's just a nice way to say hi to the bride (or groom) and give them a little honeymoon cash. Looking down on it is a wannabe White Coastener thing.
Guise did we discuss how midwesterners love "Chi-pol-tay" ??

Clearly an attempt by all involved to be cool and something that they're not. Bunch of posers. I regret my involvement, don't know what I was thinking.
