Are you ditching parent dances?

I do, I do, I do

Oh god I would NEVER skip this. I'm a daddy's girl all the way and I am a huge sucker for these dances at weddings. I love them

I want there to be. Because I want a dance with my children. But my dad and his mom and being very hesitant.

Yes, definitely ditching this. I’m not super close to my dad.

Yes! giving our parents a little moment

Yes we will be doing this.

We’re not having dancing at the reception, so no parent dances. We don’t have room for dances at our venue (the social hall at our church), so no need for a DJ, and that means a lot of money saved. We’ll have yummy food, beer and wine, cake and cookies, and great conversation.

Yes, but my fh and his mom will dance at same time I am dancing with my dad. We don't want alot of time taken up.

No clue. My dad told me he doesnt want to dance because its awkward and we already danced at my sweet 16. I dont blame him lol.

Keeping this tradition!

We are keeping it, but adding something different. The groom will dance with our two daughters after he dance with his mother briefly. I really think it will be super cute! Both daughters dance better than my fiancee! Lol

We wanted to do a fun dance but didn't plan ahead enough. We did parent dances but kept them both super short and cut the song down.

Really? That's so strange, I feel like most parents love this tradition and want to do it!

Love it, that's so sweet! Have you picked out songs yet for them?

Sounds like a great time!! The food and drinks are what most guests remember!

Yes we are keeping these! We are both very close with our parents! And my dad is actually singing our "first dance".💗💗💗

Yes we are doing the father- daughter dance, and FH and his mother will be doing a dance as well (if they don't change their mind)

We are ditching all the traditional dances. Granted, our families are full of crazies so there will be dancing, well, some kind of flailing around.

I don't think we are doing any of the typical wedding traditions. Not having toasts, speeches, dances, garter or bouquet toss, no cake, no send off, no gifts.....just a fun time with family and friends.

So, my father passed away a few years ago. I have decided to do a mother daughter dance with my mum to a song that my father used to sing to her when she was pregnant with me.

This is the only part of the wedding I a dreading because I really struggle with the fact that my dad voluntarily took himself out of my life. So I won’t be able to have one. My FH loves my mom and doesn’t consider his mom a real mom due to her terrible choices so he will be dancing with my mom.
