Millie and Jake Performed Epic 6-Minute Grease Medley Together
The couple wanted their first dance to be unforgettable, so Brown choreographed an entire dance routine with her new husband. Jake took professional dance lessons to learn the routine, showing his commitment to making the moment special.
“When Jake proposed, I was like, ‘We have to learn a dance routine. We’ll remember it forever and when the song comes on when we’re 80, we’ll remember it,” Brown explained during the podcast. She revealed they originally planned to dance to Dirty Dancing but reconsidered the risk of a failed lift on their wedding day.
“My favorite movie is Grease 2, so we did a Grease medley of songs, it was probably like a six-minute dance. People were like, ‘Oh my god, you can tell she’s an actor.’ It was so much fun. It was amazing.”

How Their Dance Became Part of Their Daily Marriage Life
Brown developed a lifelong love of dance through performing routines at family gatherings growing up. This tradition made creating a wedding dance routine feel natural and deeply meaningful to her and Jake. The choreography has already proven its staying power.
The couple recently proved their dance training stuck with them. “The other night, Jake and I were at a bar, and ‘You’re the One That I Want’ came on,” Brown joked, “and Jake goes right into it.” Their wedding choreography has become a permanent part of their relationship outside the venue.
What Makes the Millie and Jake Wedding Story Truly Epic and Unforgettable?
The wedding combined intimate family moments with professional entertainment and meaningful traditions. From Frank Sinatra performed by a Grammy-nominated artist to a six-minute choreographed dance, every detail reflected the couple’s personalities and values.
The couple, who began dating in June 2021 and got engaged in April 2023, created a wedding that balanced their youthful energy with mature sentimentality. Brown acknowledged her young age when marrying at just 21, but emphasized that “when you meet that person, you know it.” Today, Millie and Jake have expanded their family through adoption, welcoming a baby girl in August 2025.
