A bride and her dad stole the show at her wedding after surprising guests with a choreographed routine as part of their unforgettable father-daughter dance.
Nancy Krieger, 30, and Ron Lestock, 63, have gone viral after tearing up the dance floor at her reception that was held at the Windows on the River venue in Cleveland, Ohio, on November 12.
The TikTok video shows the father-daughter duo slow dancing to The Temptations’ classic ‘My Girl’ right before the record scratches and the song switches to Usher’s hit ‘Yeah!’ featuring Lil Jon and Ludacris.

Krieger starts waving her hands in the air in front of her dad, who is just standing there, pretending to be shocked — until he joins in.
The guests go wild as they perform their choreographed dance moves side by side for the remainder of the 22-second clip.
‘When everyone thinks you’re pranking your dad… and then he joins in,’ Krieger captioned the video, which has been viewed more than 4.4 million times.

‘You just know Dad rehearsed this every day for months with the biggest smile on his face,’ one person commented.
‘I smiled so big at this! What a wonderful Dad you have! Love this,’ someone else wrote, while another added, ‘Okay this is iconic.’
Others asked the newlywed to share the full video of their father-daughter dance so they could see the rest of their performance.
Krieger told Good Morning America that it was actually her father who came up with the idea of doing a ‘fun dance’ because they would ‘cry the entire time’ if they picked a more traditional slow song.

The heartwarming clip has received more than 1,900 comments from fans, including those who asked Krieger to post the entire dance
‘I thought about it. I said, “You know what, let’s try doing something different other than the old you know, daddy’s little girl dance. You know?”‘ she recalled. ‘So we thought about it and we each picked a couple songs.’
In addition to ‘My Girl,’ they each picked two other songs to include in the mashup, which viewers didn’t get to see. Their dance to ‘Yeah!’ was followed by Chubby Checker’s ‘Twist,’ ‘1,2 Step’ by Ciara, and the Village People’s ‘Y.M.C.A.’
Kieger said they practiced their routine every week for about eight to nine months leading up to her wedding to her now-husband Andrew Krieger because they didn’t want to be nervous dancing in front of 170 guests.

‘Everyone was shocked,’ she said. ‘We did our rounds to all the tables after dinner and that was just the talk of the night like, “How long did you practice?” So, it was a nice reaction.’
