First dance/parents dance song

avaday2u · July 2013

Our reception is in an old home and will take place in the front parlors of the house.

We don't want to "bore" everybody and have 3-4 different songs in order to dance with my Dad, his Mom and then us.

So, we thought it would be neat to pick one song about 5 minutes long that would be best for all those people. So I would dance with my Dad and FI dance with his Mom, then my Mom, and me with his Dad and then end the song dancing together...

Any suggestions?!? We do not like country music, so that is out...

We did a combined song for the dad/daughter and mom/son dances. We used "Memories" by Elvis Presley. You can see him singing it here:

I liked the idea of dancing with the in-laws because at the end of the song we will dance with each other, sort of like acknowledging everyone who made us who we are...

Thanks for the advice!

I love the idea of combining everything. I think 5 minutes is still a little long. I'd go with something classic like What a Wonderful World.
