Father/daughter dance

MK, on March 29, 2021 at 1:56 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 9

We have been trying to keep things fun and upbeat for the wedding -- my fiancé and I plan to dance to "Beyond" by Leon Bridges to keep things sweet but upbeat!

But after thinking about it, I really want a good tear jerker to dance with my dad. We don't really have any songs that we are just special to us. I don't necessarily want any country music, unless it's old classic country. Any ideas?!

    If you haven't already, browse the playlists on Youtube and Pinterest. Also ask your dj what he has available.

    It took me a long time to find just the right song for my dad's and my dance. I'd gone on Pinterest for lists of father-daughter dance songs. I knew I didn't want "Butterfly Kisses" by Bob Carlisle because that song was so overplayed. My fiance's sister used that at her wedding with her dad, and at this point, I pretty much hate that song. The song I ultimately decided on was "Cinderella" by Stephen Curtis Chapman. I'd never even heard the song until I saw it on one of those Pinterest lists. Then I pulled it up on YouTube, and I knew immediately that it was the song. It's about a father and his little princess, which I have always been to my dad.

    Dad and I didn't have special songs, in terms of just pure music, but we DO have a special movie.

    So, we chose from that soundtrack.

    Do you have a shared movie or TV show you could pull from?

    May I offer the one I was going to use but no longer can?

    "You're my Little Girl" by Go Fish. Had it picked out since age 4.

    Maybe it's just sentimental to me, but I'm tearing up typing this.
