June 2012 Weddings

Special Family Dance Song

I'm the youngest of 3 girls and as of June 9 we will all be married off ( as my dad would say). Well he wanted to do a special dance with my mom after all the other special dances to celebrate that they have made it through 3 weddings and 3 daughters. His thoughts are to have the song start with him and my mom dancing only, then have my sisters with their husbands and my fiance ( will be husband) and i join in and then have my fiance's parents and siblings with their significant others join in at the end.I'm all for it bc i think it something special that my parents can have together. The problem is that we can't find a song with words  that fits the significance of the dance.

Can you guys think of any songs ( old or new- just must be slow) that will fit a dance to celebrate having the last child's wedding and how much the parents have sacrificed toward 3 daughter's weddings?

    Not sure what your stance is on country, but I was considering My Wish by Rascall Flatts for a dual mother/son, father/daughter dance. I think it'd be a good fit if you don't hate country.

  • This is an amazing idea, I love it :) I think she should try to look for a song that all of you enjoy and brings up wonderful memories.

    We love country but we need a song to celebrate that parents have made it through 3 weddings and that their last is married which means no more weddings. it's kind of hard to explain.

    Hmm, well the only other thing I have is maybe to have the DJ mix everyone's first dances and start each couple's first dance song as they're about to join the dance? I have no idea what those songs are so it might end up sounding horrible, but that's all I can think of haha.

    I don't think you're going to find something this specific.  I think My Wish or something along those lines is great, there aren't too many songs that mention finally getting through 3 weddings.
