Father/Daughter Dance

[dcairns]

What are your songs? I have been blessed with a fantastic step father who has been my dad.. just stuck on finding the perfect song? Any suggestions?

My dad and I both listen to rock and aren't big dancers, so I'm thinking for something a little different we'd go with "Thank You" by Led Zeppelin

[dcairns]

thats awesome, he's more country. I'm lost still but searching!!

If you do a search, there is already a thread on this that should give you lots of ideas.  Actually, maybe one of the mods could merge this with that one.

 

I am actually not country at all but am using a country song for my father-daughter dance - I loved her first by Heartland.  The song was recommended to me by some other brides on here and I love the lyrics.  I sent it to my dad and he thought it was perfect.

Thanks for the idea of Her First by Heartland, I'm going to look into that one tonight.

I'm using Darius Rucker-It won't be like this for Long

It's a different song, but I love it!

We're doing, Daddy by Beyonce, this will be the dance my FI dances with his daughter to as my father is absent.  It's a touching song and i get a little choked up when I imagine him dancing with his daughter to this song

Thought of a few country father/daughter dance options:

Tim McGraw - My Little Girl

Rascal Flatts - My Wish

Trace Adkins - Then They Do

Not country at all, but we did "My Girl" by The Temptations.  The lyrics work (and I happened to born in "the month of May" so double bonus), it's short so we didn't have all eyes for an uncomfortably long period of time (neither of us are big on that), and we had some hometown roots incorporated into our destination wedding (we're from Detroit).

I think I am using Puff the Magic Dragon.  Strange choice, I know, but I have a lot of memories of my dad singing this song when I was a little girl.  I may not do it because just thinking about it makes me start to cry and I don't know if I could get through it.
