Mother Daughter dance?

Leah, on July 12, 2021 at 12:18 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 4

Hi Guys!! So getting married in Oct. FH will dance with his mom of course. Now the father daughter dance will be a little different. I have a stepfather who has been around for more than 25 years. I plan to begin my dance with my father, then my brother will cut in and then my step father will cut in. My father and step father still have that awkwardness after all this time. ((children... eyeroll)) Anyway... my mother wants a dance by herself too. She has obviously been with me every step of the way, way more than my real father. She will also walk me down the isle with my father. Not that i dont want her to feel special because she is.... im trying to see how that will work. I was thinking of in the middle of the party to have a special moment for us. Where i "randomly" dedicate a song to her. Is that ok? i just didnt want to do it with all the other dances as my FH will just have his mom and then i have like 4 people... lol. Anywho.... what do you guys think? BTW, my mom isnt one of those people who craves attention bbuuuuttt she wants her due. ☺

    So for mine my mom is walking me down the aisle(my father passed and I don't have a father figure in my life) only makes sense for my mom to walk me. I was planning on dancing with my mom while my fiance dances with his mom. Probably let your fiance and his mother start the dance and then you and your mother come in after?

    It’s so sweet that you are trying to include your mom as much as possible, but honestly if I were a guest and saw you dance with 4 different people, I would assume your mom was a drama queen about the situation! Ive only ever seen a first dance with a mom when the bride doesn’t have a father figure in her life, but you have 2. Could she give a toast instead?

    I think dedicating a special song to her during the reception is perfect!! It could be a song that reminds you or her, or one of your favorites to dance to together! 💕

    One of my good friends did this at her wedding - her mom's name is Val so she had the band give a special shout-out to her mom and her request her presence on the dance floor for the song "Valerie"! 🎵
