A traditional Croatian wedding ballad is Strauss' Waltz On the Beautiful Blue Danube; this is played as guests place money into a basket, held by the maid of honour, in order to have a dance with the bride. Depending on how much the person donates, the person can get a certain amount of time to dance with her. Since it is very popular to dance with the bride, it is common for people to donate lots of money just to dance with her for a long time! Popular Croatian foods that would be on the table at a Croatian wedding may include 'orahnjaca' (a nut bread), puhanse (a light flaky pastry sprinkled with powdered sugar) served as dessert, paski sur (sheep or goat milk cheese) and Mlinci (flat bread) served as side dishes, and goulash and odojak( roast pork) as main entrees.
