Father/daughter dance songs for step-dads

Sarah, on September 19, 2021 at 1:47 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 10
My step-dad is walking me down the isle and doing the father/daughter dance with me. I’m having a hard time finding a song for us to dance to, I really like the Country song “My Boy” by Elvie Shane, I am trying to find a song like that for the father/daughter dance. My dad is still involved in my life, due to health reasons my dad is unable to travel and attend the wedding, so my step-dad has agreed to walk me down the isle and do the father/daughter dance.

    Have you asked him what song he would like? I asked my dad & his mom what they’re preferences were & they chose the songs. If he has no preference, I’d reach out to your DJ for some guidance.

    His only preference is a slow song

    My first suggestion before I read the entire post was Piece by Piece by Kelly Clarkson, but if your Father is still active in your life that's definitely not a good one.

    I'll Be There by Josh Turner is really cute though!

    My step dad is also walking me down the aisle and dancing with me. I'm using "teach your children " by Crosby Stills Nash and Young

    I am literally listening to the girl version on repeat. My mom and Stepdad both like the song and my DJ has the song, so I’m happy now. A little less stressed. Now off to find wedding shoes.

    Awww yay!! That song made me cry the first time I heard it. You're going to have such a special moment with your step dad ❤️

    I am hoping for that. So I texted my DJ after I heard the song, asking him about it. Then he called and told me that a bride for a wedding they did last weekend chose that song to dance to with her father in-law. I’m glad I’m not the only one using that song. My mom told me my adopted brother sings the boy version of that song to my stepdad whenever they talk. My stepdad is an over the road truck driver. The song does a good job explaining my stepdads and my relationship. Except I did not do sports, he was always their for my musical performances and choir concerts.
