Non-country daddy/daughter dance

Brittney, on March 15, 2018 at 4:38 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 31
Help!! I hate country but I want a sappy daddy daughter dance. My sister's dances to both the songs I have always had in mind and so I can use them. They were Cinderella by Steven Curtis Chapman and Butterfly Kisses. HELP! My dad and I are very close.

    Daddy Dance with Me by Krystal Keith is a good one. It might be a little country but I don’t think it’s like country country if that makes sense lol

    Ready, Set, Don’t go by Miley and billy Ray Cyrus might be one to look into to. Billy Ray is a country artist but the song is more Miley so it’s more popish

    I loved her first- heartland. It's a bit country but it's beautiful. It's the song I'm going with

    I think we are doing Forever Young by Rod Stewart. Not country, but I wouldn't really call it sappy either (I didn't want a sappy song though). It fits my dad's style the best too. Have you asked your dad for his opinion?

    We are doing Daddy’s little Angel it’s a song I found on YouTube when I was picking out mine and I fell in love it’s not a song I have heard so it’s not overdone.

    I’ll Let You Go by Jessica Allossery

    She wrote it for a father giving his daughter away on her wedding day.

    My dad suggested we do "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion. I did the song for a talent show on year, and he was really proud of me doing it!
    I didn't win (the popular/prep girls who couldn't sing at all, won all 3 places), but the song has a lot of sentimental meaning to us!

    I doubt anyone will remember what song your sister and father used, so you could use one of them. DH’s brother used the same wedding song as we did (many years after us) and I doubt anyone noticed - except for maybe my sister and DH because it was my favourite song since I was 11.


    ETA - I danced with my father to Tough Little Boys by Garry Allen. Definitely country and definitely sappy, but it’s about a man who was this tough little boy, but he grew up to be a dad and he turned into a big baby again. There’s even a part about giving you away (no, I’m not property and had that part taken out of my wedding- but it is in the song) one day.

    That's an option I gave my dad, but the Bob Dylan version. Also Bruce Springsteen's When You Need Me.

    We are dancing to Lullabye by Billy Joel! Billy Joel is my all time favorite, and so it wasn’t even a question of what we were going to do!

    Were dancing to you’ll be in my heart by Phil Collins. I can’t stand country either so it took me a while to find a song!

    My dad and I are also super close, and this is the song we used. I love it, and still cry when I hear it.
