The wedding dance of José Luis Martínez-Almeida and Teresa Urquijo, who got married this Saturday at the San Francisco de Borja church in Madrid, continues to generate all kinds of reactions. The couple's idea was to complete a chotis, a slow and typical dance from the Community of Madrid.
However, the couple's execution was surprising for its lack of fluidity and its particular style, far from what many understand by chotis.
Nuria Roca, presenter of the program La Roca, could not hide her surprise at the wedding dance performed by Martínez-Almeida and Urquijo: "I didn't know Chotis was like that." "That didn't look like a waltz, nor did it look like anything," the presenter added with a laugh.
He also reminded Roca that his sense of rhythm was not the best either. "It's like when you danced a waltz at your wedding, which wasn't a waltz either," her husband and also La Roca collaborator, Juan del Val, recalled. "Mine was a little similar," jokes the host of the magazine, who assured that she feels identified with them.
The rest of the collaborators also agreed with her. "It's like a fight," said Marta Critikian. "When Teresa was dancing with her godfather and Almeida with her mother-in-law, they were dancing a real Chotis, but the moment they separated from her parents they messed up," added Berni Barrachina.
The mayor of Madrid and Urquijo were married in the San Francisco de Borja church in Madrid, in a wedding that has generated great expectation. The wedding was attended by part of the royal family, since they are related to the bride's family, as well as regional presidents and members of the leadership of the Popular Party.
King Emeritus Juan Carlos could be seen, along with his daughters Infanta Cristina, with her eldest son, Juan Urdangarin, and Infanta Elena, along with her family: Felipe and Victoria de Marichalar.
