Mother-in-law & Son-in-law Dance

Megan, on November 22, 2021 at 11:24 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 1 3
My fiancé and I are getting married so very soon and unfortunately, I’ve slacked on the best part of the reception… the playlist. My fiancé and his mother had a very traumatic falling out over the summer during major wedding planning and it kind of threw me through the ringer. I was really bummed out and feeling kind of “let down” because his mom and I were (or so I thought) pretty close and I was looking forward to her being there with my mom and I to plan everything together. Well, long story short, my fiancé does not intend on having his mother come to the wedding, so instead of a mother/son dance, he was looking for a song to dance to with my mom. Too many songs mention being there from childhood or mentioning the blood relation between mother and son, so we are looking for a song with relatable lyrics if anyone could help! It’s super appreciated in advance!

    That is very sweet. You could look for a song appropriate for a step mother! Or

    You've got a friend in me - randy newman

    you are my sunshine

    what a wonderful world

    do I make you proud

    You've got a friend - Carole King

    I wouldn't worry about trying to find the perfect song with the perfect lyrics that represent this situation. Just ask your future spouse for some of his favorite songs to dance to and go with one of those. As long as the one he picks is not a love song, it will be fine.

    Hi Megan! All of the songs that fall into the I'll Be There / Stand By Me / Lean on Me / You've Got A Friend In Me genre work well for everything! 🎵

    Here are a few more ideas:

    In My Life - The Beatles

    Time After Time - Cyndi Lauper

    Thank You - Boyz II Men

    I'll Be There - Jackson 5

    Tell you something- Alicia Keys

    My Wish - Rascal Flatts
