This is exactly why I'm crying ahhaa. I LOVE that Carrie Underwood song... I'm also considering "I Hope You Dance" by Lee Ann Womack, but I can't even think of the lyrics to that song without losing it right now hahaha
PS - My mom also gave me the nicest V-day card this morning but at the end she wrote "Our last Valentine's Day together :(" so I've been kind of emotional today because of it.

Ah why do they have to pull on our heartstrings like that!! My mom sent me and Andy a card saying enjoy your last single valentine's day lol. I get emotional hearing songs in the car too. I have a whole wedding mix that I listen to. I love that song I hope you dance too!!
Guess where we are going for dinner tonight! Avenue East lol he wants sushi so we are going there tonight and a nice place on friday.
Father/Daughter: I'm dancing with both my dad and step-dad and I'm debating splitting one song in half so that people don't have to sit through as many of these dances. I like My Wish by Rascal Flatts but would also LOVE to find an appropriate Elton John song. Nothing yet.
Mother/Son: I don't think they'll have their own song. They'll probably join in with the Father/Daughter dance.

When I graduated from college, my mom gave me a copy of a book with the lyrics in it with a CD and she wrote something on each page. I cannot even look at those lyrics without being hysterical. I will NOT be dancing with her to that song, despite the fact that it has special meaning!!!
Father/Daughter: Heartland - I Loved Her First

Lol I can only read the lyrics at work I need to listen to the song when I get home.
Bride/Groom: Unchained Melody by The Righteous Brothers
Father/Daughter: My Girl by The Temptations. My dad originally picked a Stevie Wonder song, but at the last two family weddings, my cousins danced to the same song he wanted, so we changed it.
FI will be dancing with his stepmother, so I'll have to help him pick something for them.
Bride/Father: Skipping.
Mom/Son - Skipping.
I might do a dance with my uncle for Sweet Child O' Mine by Guns and Roses. It's kinda our song. He used to play it on guitar and sing it to me to try and get me to sleep. It was the only thing that would get me to stop crying as a baby.
Father/daughter: I Loved Her First by Heartland...I had this in mind since it came out several years ago, but never mentioned it to anyone. I asked my dad last week what song he wanted to dance to, and he came up with this one, too! Guess it was meant to be.
Only definite song so far I believe is my father/daughter song which is To sir, with love. My dad and I love old movies and there are some lines in that song that totally make me think of my dad. We had been thinking of Unforgettable and My dad loves nat King Cole but it's so over done
[QUOTE]<strong>Our first dance- Smile by Uncle Kracker</strong> Father/Daughter- Tale as Old as Time from Beauty and the Beastl when i was little; i loved this movie, and everytime the ballroom scene came on I made my dad dance with me. So Im making him dance one more time. Mother/Son- FMIL favorite song is Somewhere over the rainbow; and FI recorded a saxophone version a few years ago and never shared it with her. She also doesnt know that there will be a mother-son dance!

This is our first dance song too!
Father/Daughter: still working on that
Mother/Son: A Song for Mama by Boyz II Men
I was thinking about doing a song with my godfather since he is really important in my life, but i haven't decided yet.
I'm pretty sure that will be the only dance...then cut a rug with everyone else.
That song makes me BAWL everytime...
