South Africans react to 'iStep' dance video of local bride and groom

Loading player...
An unidentified couple are trending on social media after clips from their wedding day went viral.

In the video, the bride and groom are recorded dancing to what is known in the African tradition as 'i-step' which is similar to the first dance of the married couple at traditional white weddings.

The only difference is that the expected and traditional first dance at white weddings are often to slow love ballads. Whereas with 'i-step', it is almost a high energy dance song.

The newlyweds are seen breaking it down to popular Amapiano song, 'Umsebenzi Wethu' by Busta 929.

Such a vibe, man!
