In law dances

Raven, on March 20, 2017 at 10:46 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 9

I am thinking about doing an in law dance....my fiancé and myself dancing with each other's parents. The only problem is that his dad passed away nine years ago...so I wanted to ask his grandpa and uncle but I need a decent song for the both of us at the same time. Any advise would work.

    Are you doing this on top of the regular parent dance and the couple dance? Seems like a lot of time for your guests to have to sit and watch you dance. You're dancing with both grandpa and the uncle?

    If this in addition to all other traditional dances, I'd say it's too much and your guests will get bored.

    I agree with PPs. Sometimes, just the first dance seems a little long and boring as a guest. I can't imagine adding on three more to sit through.

    Seems a bit excessive and boring if it's in addition to traditional dances.

    There's already so many of these traditional dances at weddings. And as a guest they are cute for like 15 seconds and then they are boring. I wouldn't do that many. It will kill any hope of a party vibe.

    Yeah, I agree with everyone else- if that's on top of all other dances, that's too much. As a guest, I don't like sitting through anything other than the first dance of bride and groom.

    I may be UO here, but father/daughter and mother/son dances, in law dances, grandparent dances, and especially bridal party dances are super awkward because these dances are intimate. Personally, I think it's a tradition excluding the first dance that needs to die.

    Sometimes these things evolve naturally and are a lot more fun Smiley smile

    I agree that a scheduled dance seems like a lot. My future father in law makes a habit of dancing with his new daughter in laws during a song but its while everyone is dancing.
