Nerdy Father/Daughter Dance Music?

Emily, on April 26, 2017 at 9:19 AM Posted in Planning 0 3

Okay so my dad and I have struggled to find a song for our father/daughter dance. He's basically the person responsible for my love for stuff like Star Wars and Indiana Jones. So we thought about doing something instrumental from one of our favorite movies? I was thinking something from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade because of the father/child connection. Any other ideas? We're into Star Wars, Indy, Harry Potter, anything World War II (I know real wedding appropriate), Jurassic Park, Disney, uh.. you get the idea.

    I completely understand! My FH and I are super nerdy. We loveee Jurassic Park and Star Wars. That being said I decided to doing something for us and I am walking down the aisle to Piano Guys version to the Jurassic Park theme song. I know OMG why would anyone do that but it just seemed perfect for us. You should give it a listen. It is just the piano and cello and they slowed it down a lot. My mom had to listen to it three times to place the song. (just negate the dinosaur noises in the beginning. haha)

    You mentioned Disney and that's probably the easiest to find a wedding song from. There's "You'll Be In My Heart" "Baby Mine" "Tale As Old As Time"...

    As for Star Wars, Jurassic Park, and Indiana Jones (and some of the Harry Potters as well I think), being John Williams creations they are going to be pretty big and bold and it may be tough to find one that sounds like classic father/daughter dance material, but that doesn't mean you can't embrace the unusualness and do it anyway. If you two want to dance to the Indy theme or the Imperial March, embrace the silly and go for it.

    I checked out the link SarahE included and was really amused! The same guys cover some Star Wars and a few other classic movies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgAlQuqzl8o (and I'm currently listening to them cover Swedish House Mafia)
