Father/Daughter Mother/son Dance!?

Tempa22, on August 9, 2016 at 2:58 AM Posted in Planning 0 9

Hi all!! So my FH and I are choosing to combine the father/daughter and mother/son dance into one. All the cliche songs I can think of are very bent either way (fathers about daughters or mothers about sons). What songs have you used or seen used for this part of the reception?? Any help is appreciated Smiley smile

    I used Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison and he used Simple Man by Shinedown. Pretty bent one way though.

    You could use My Wish by Rascal Flatts

    I Hope You Dance by Lee Ann Womack is pretty neutral!

    I'm doing "Because you Loved Me" by Celine Dion

    I think that could cover for both.

    This isn't official yet, but I am thinking of using "When You Need Me" by Bruce Springsteen, because my dad is a huge Springsteen fan.

    My FH and his mother don't have the best relationship, so he doesn't really want to do a mother/son dance. If she really wants to do one, we are also going to do the dances at the same time. I think this song would be appropriate for both.

    Check out the Songs section on WW! There's a ton of inspiration there!

    There are also a ton of songs that don't explicity say "mom / dad / son / daughter". My dad and I are dancing to How Sweet It Is by James Taylor!
