I'm not planning on it, I didnt even know people did until I came here.
Maybe ask your dad if there is a special song he has. Maybe somehting he played or sang to you when you were little? For example, when my sister was born, eternal flame by the bangles was the only thing that shut her up (lol) so I would always suggest that for her x

CommentAuthorMrs Turps (Nicpep)
waterproof mascara? lol
We could find a list of songs, but I still think its better if there is one thats special. erm, dance with my father by Luther vandross (lol sorry I had to), greatest love of all by whitney houston (its hard to find slow songs that arent romantic)
Type in 'father of bride first dance' into google, loads of suggestion on first site that came up ...some of the titles sound lovely! xx

CommentAuthorMrs (Dove) Pidgeon
I'm not having a formal father-daughter dance thing, but at some point I want the DJ to play 'When I'm Sixty Four' by the Beatles and I'll dance with him then. The song was special to us when I was growing up.

CommentAuthoralimarie05
i'm not planning on one but i'm sure it'll happen at some point. i was reading up on wedding etiquette a few months ago and it was suprising who is supposed to dance with who, talk about swap and change, lol. if you're wanting the father daughter dance maybe ask your dad what he would like :)
CommentAuthorLaticschick Holland

Snap MrsPrestleton2be, that is what I am gonna have to dance with mine. Such a beautiful song, makes me cry each and everytime for a few reasons.
CommentAuthorekielty(now Trow)
I dont know what song to have to dance with my dad too! I was thinking something by david bowie because i know he loves his music! Either that or something by an irish singer called Christy Moore.
I cant decide! :/

CommentAuthorMrsHoward2B
Im glad I saw this thread, i am thinking of having a dance with my dad, but I really want it to be a Waltz (as my mum and dad met ballroom dancing, and the Waltz is always something me and my dad have done) But.....I don't want it to be an old piece of music, so need to find a modern waltz...any suggestions!?!?!? I know on Strictly they manage to make all sorts of pops songs into ballroom music, but not really sure where i can get them?

My dad has asked for Temptations - My Girl .. as it a, it's both of our favourite songs & b, He said it always reminds him of his only baby girl as it was playing on the radio when I was born and thinks of me everytime. Xx
CommentAuthormitch2509
some good ideas, im probs gonna have brown eyed girl or something along those lines
CommentAuthor'ca'ca'ca
just listened to butterfly kisses and although i wont be using the song it still made me cry; very beautiful song indeed. MrsHoward2B; try the strictly website? maybe that can help "always be your baby" is a nice song but doesnt really apply to us; my dad and i have had a turbulent relationship to say the eleast lolz <3 x
CommentAuthorButterflyDreamer
I'd love to but i'm not sure dad would go for it!
I can't remember who it was but when we had the game thread a while ago we were on the subject of first dance songs and i suggested my girl as a first dance (H2B dedicating it to new wife as normally its the other way around) they thought it was a great idea and are now using it as their first dance!
I was well chuffed! I think it's great song for father and daughter dance too x
CommentAuthorjenn
I wasnt planning to have one, i think we'll do the first dance, then have a song that the whole of the bridal party can get up and dance too then we can all swap partners during that, that way you get to dance with everyone!! :)
CommentAuthor'ca'ca'ca
i was worrying and then had a sudden realisation; i dont have to. my dad and i have always had "sweet child o mine" and im going to try to get the sheryle crow version because it will suprise everyone lolz phew. panic over. it makes me cry every time <3 x
CommentAuthor'ca'ca'ca
