Mother/daughter dance?

Shelby, on May 29, 2017 at 10:53 PM Posted in Planning 0 6

Just curious, my parents are divorced and I'm doing a daddy daughter dance with my dad, but has anyone else done a dance or something special with their mom? If I were to do some sort of dance with her I'd pick Carrie underwood's song "mamas song". But would that be too much? Or should I try to figure something else out? I know it's still way early in the planning but this has been bothering me for quite some time!

    How many dances are you planning on having? You will want to avoid having too many in a row, guests can get restless, especially if the dances are before dinner. I think the idea is really sweet, so what about waiting a little while into the general dancing time and then dedicating a song to your mother and asking her to dance. It'll show your mom that you were thinking of her and wanted a special moment with her, but it lets the guests keep dancing and the party keep going.

    I danced with my mom to "Mama's Song"! I love that song, and it sums it up for me and my mom perfectly. I didn't tell my mom beforehand what song I picked to dance with her... She BAWLED!! < 3

I just didn't know if other people have done this and I know it mean the world to her if I dedicated something for her! And Rachel it makes me cry too! I know she'll love it when she hears it!! <3 thank you guys Smiley smile

    My FH is dancing with my Mom to the song mother in law. Lol! She picked it out. I've never seen a bride dance with her mom but I almost always see the groom dance with both mothers. I think you and your mom dancing would be sweet.

    I'm doing a mom daughter dance at my moms request. I'm doing an acoustic version of Queens "You're My Best Friend." To keep it from dragging my parent dances will be 2-3 minutes long each with no announcements in between.

    A friend of mine did a Mother /daughter dance to Mama's song. Her mom totally wasn't expecting it and it was really sweet!
