The mezinke (or mizinke) dance is performed toward the end of a wedding when parents marry off their last child. The parents sit together while family and friends circle and dance around them to the klezmer tune "Di Mizinke Oysgegebn" ("The youngest daughter is given away"); it is also called the "broom dance." According to Jewish Action it is increasingly popular in Orthodox circles, though its origins are unclear.
