Family Wedding Dance for Blended Family - Help!

I'm getting married soon and we want to have a "Family Dance" .... my new husband dancing with my daughter (10) and I will be dancing with my son (14). I'm having a VERY difficult time finding anything that fits. Older songs are completely boring for the kids and I was thinking that something fun or a little more uptempo would work better than a really slow or mushy dance, especially considering their ages. Anyone have any suggestions??

    I will be doing a sand ceremony for FH, myself and my kids. I chose the song "Count on Me" by Bruno Mars because the lyrics go perfectly, my kids love the song and the beat is fun sounding.

    H danced with his daughter to "Isn't She Lovely" by Stevie Wonder.

    I would suggest something from the Motown era cause it is still upbeat... is there a specific genre you are looking for? One you don't want?

    Somewhere over the rainbow sung by Nicholas David from the voice is THEE best version ever! I was going to pick that song but I wanted something a bit more "jolly" for my little ones. Your kids are bigger tho Pam so maybe that is a perfect option for you.

    I'm definitely liking "Count on Me', Marilina! My daughter loves Bruno Mars. The song has the right kind of sentiment and it would be more fun to dance to than a real slow song. Thanks!
