Any Mother/Daughter song suggestions??

TheNewMrsT, on August 8, 2013 at 9:02 AM Posted in Planning 0 15

I wanted to use Mama Song by Carrie Underwood because the words are perfect, but my sister who just got married in June used that and is freaking out about me wanting to use the same song, so I am open for other idea I suppose. Help?!?!?!

    We're doing "Where You Lead" by Carole King (the theme song to Gilmore Girls).

    My mom really wanted to do "In my Daughter's Eyes" by Martina McBride, but I feel Where You lead is more "us". There's also a lot of good songs that people do for father-daughter dances that would work for a mother-daughter dance, like "I Loved Her First," "Because You Loved Me," or others like that. (Can you tell this is something my mom and I have discussed in length???)

    To be funny, we're also going to play a bit of "She Got it From Her Momma" by Juvenile Smiley smile

    I love the idea of doing "I Hope You Dance" it's a country song and I'm not 100% sure of the artist name but its beautiful.

    Edit: @ Lori! That's the artist! Woop woop! Lol

    My mom and I are doing "Mama's Song" by Carrie Underwood.

    It took me FOREVER to decide if we were even going to do one. My dad isn't involved in my life at all (he'll be invited to the wedding..but he won't have a part in it at all), but FH really wanted to dance with his mom and I figured it would look weird if he danced with his and then we just moved on.

    My mom and I danced to Like My Mother Does by Lauren Alaina. It is a country song, and most people haven't heard it, but I love it.

    I'm surprising my mom with a mother/daughter dance. We'll be dancing to Big Rock Candy Mountain because that's what she used to sing to me when I was a kid. So if you have any songs like that, I think those would be perfect.

    My dad and I are dancing to Stevie Wonder's Sunshine of My Life, and FH and his mom are doing I Hope You Dance by Leeane Womack.

    I've never heard of a mother daughter dance!? Is this a tradition I just haven't heard of?

    In my daughters eyes by Martina McBride. I said for my daughter to use this for her father daughter song she said it was more from mom daughter song.

    @Lacie, not sure its a tradition, but since my mom has been my mom and dad, I feel like she deserves to be recognized Smiley smile

    @Lori, I LOVE GILMORE GIRLS! Good call there. Smiley smile

    We didn't dance, but I gave my mom my bouquet instead of doing a toss. We had that Touch the Sky song from Brave playing in the background.

    There are tons of songs out there that you could use, especially country songs! maybe ask your mom for one of her favorite songs? if your doing it as a surprise you could just make random conversation with her? if that's not an option there is always;

    my wish - rascal flatts

    hero - mariah carey

    a song for my daughter - ray allaire

    butterfly fly away - miley cyrus

    along with all the beautiful songs already mentioned above!

    i am doing the same thing with my mom for the same reason, she has been my mom and dad for as long as i can remember! best of luck choosing a song!
