I had to go find out what was happening. One of the dancers (not dressed as a banana) told me it was a wedding celebration of three couples who got married the same day. The dancing ended with a group hug (swipe ⬅️ to see final video) before the entourage, still dancing, moved its way up Water Street. I’ve seen a lot of wedding celebrations in Gastown but nothing like this one! When the video pans the furthest left, you’ll see a man chatting with another man in a silver cape. That’s Phil, who bought his red Desigual shirt and T-shirt at Angel. • #dancinginthestreets #gastown #angelofgastown #mygastown #localgastown #gassyjack #gassyjackstatue #mapletreesquare #weddingparty #crazywedding #triplewedding #vancouver #myvancouver #604 #yvr #myyvr #streetlife #vancityvibe #canada #weddingdancers #grouphug #LaVidaEsChula #desigualshirt #mydesigual #desigualcanada #desigualvancouver #vancouverdesigual #desigualman #anewdesigual #springsummer2019Sahar is a Desigual fan.
