Father/Daughter and Mother/Son dance - Who chooses the song?

Kim, on March 6, 2017 at 7:04 PM Posted in Planning 0 10

Hey everyone! I know I have some time to decide but I've started listening to songs for the Father/Daughter dance. Are you picking the song or letting your parents choose the song?

    I think a group effort is the best way. I've asked my dad to help pick a song for us. My FH isn't sure if his mom will even participate (they're Russian and a bit reserved.) So I think we'll consult them as well.

    My dad has had our song picked out since it came out.... and I think it was that way with his mom too. See if they have any that mean something special to them, if not, I'd say it's a free for all.

    I asked my dad if he'd be willing to pick since I thought it'd have more meaning coming from him. He agreed. I'd definitely talk to the parents and see what their thoughts are too.

    I plan on picking my song for me and my dad, because I know which song my dad will pick and it is so overused (at least where I live. Almost everyone I know hat had a wedding where i live use the same song for the father daughter dance) that when i hewr it at a wedding i groan in annoyance ("I loved her first").

    I have a song picked out that I haven't personally heard ten thousand times at just as many weddings ("You can let go now, Daddy.") That fits the theme of a song from my heart that tells both of my parents how much they mean to me (I will have a mother/daughter dance with my mom, too, and that song is "The Wind Beneath my Wings")

    I have been listening to F/D songs as well- my DJ asked me how I was doing so it had my mind going this past weekend. I have a list of about 3-4 songs I would like if my dad can't decide. However I did feel it was more special letting him pick it out. I have a feeling he is going to pick John Mayer daughters, because I know he likes that one. Idc if all my guests think it's over played. If my dad wants that song, that's what he will get! As far as FH / FMIL dance they are probably picking out one together.
