Wedding guests dance to Chris Brown’s “Forever” during Jim and Pam’s “Niagara” ceremony.
The song plays during the famous wedding-party entrance, when the guests leave their seats and dance down the church aisle instead of proceeding in the traditional way. Pam had placed “Forever” on a do-not-play list, but the guests perform the routine anyway after seeing the viral JK Wedding Entrance Dance video.
That 2009 internet video showed a real wedding party dancing down the aisle to the same song. The Office adapted the idea as a comic set piece, with Michael, Dwight, and the rest of the guests joining the choreography. The sequence became one of the series’ most recognizable moments.
“Niagara” is a two-part season-six episode centered on Jim and Pam’s wedding at Niagara Falls. A common mix-up is naming another wedding standard, such as “At Last,” but that is not the song used for the aisle dance. The episode originally aired on October 8, 2009.
