How To Incorporate a Step Father

How about a step father/ daughter dance?

I don’t have that pleasure of being close to my stepdad but your stepdad can dedicate a toast at the reception also

This is the same dilemma I have. I grew up with my stepdad since I was 5, we had our differences in my teenage years, but he was and still is my father figure. My real dad has been in my life, but since the divorce (separation) not psyically there. I am my tea dads only daughter. So I wanted my step dad and real dad to walk me down the isle, but let me real dad have his father daughter dance with me.

At this wedding , bride's father started walking her and then step father joined in and they finished walking all together.

I am doing a step father/daughter dance! My mother and bio father are walking me down the aisle. I will be doing both a father/daughter dance and a step father/daughter dance--both to separate songs that reflect our relationships. Both my father and step father are happy with this decision (not that they would say otherwise) but they seem very excited about it. That way no one is left out!

I've been to a wedding where the bride had her bio dad on one arm and her step dad on the other arm and both walked her down the aisle. She did a father and daughter dance with each and both got to give a speech (she shared her speech with her husband so it would limit the speeches). No one complained how they had to sit through an extra dance or speech. Everyone understood how important it was to her.

There is many ways you can incorporate both. For example your step dad walks you down have way and passes you off to your bio dad. Or you can just have a father daughter dance with both. You have to figure out what will work for you.
