Popular: Father Daughter Wedding Dance Songs

Are you a daddy's girl, special angel, or even his Hero? There are a number of ways (reasons on how or why a special song is or should be selected.

1) I have seen many brides anguish over the song to use for the Father and Daughter Dance. Many brides place a very high level of importance on the significance of the message in the song. I had one bride eliminate the song Butterfly Kisses by saying that her father has always been a great example to others but she has never known him to bring his hands together in prayer. There is nothing wrong in selecting a song for its message, I am positive that there is a song out there for every type of father daughter relationship.

2) Many brides on the other hand place more emphasis in the moment and the love they share with their father, and look for something more in keeping with the overall theme of the reception. As an example if the music format is more into the Big Band Era (Standards) they may select a Nat King Cole or Frank Sinatra song such as Unforgettable, or The Way You Look Tonight. If the music format is more into the Oldies they may select The Temptations or Bobby Helms; My Girl, or You Are My Special Angel.

The bottom line when selecting the Father and Daughter Wedding Dance Song; You can't possibly make a wrong choice because it's your wedding and the Bride is always right.
