Offbeat Father/Daughter wedding song

lunalee78 · April 2010

Hey,

I am in search for a non traditional - upbeat father daughter wedding song.
My father loves to dance.. and I just can't get myself to do the truly sentimental song.
Don't get me wrong I want something special between my dad and I, but something that will have people up and clapping rather then crying and sighing.

My dad loves Faith Hill, Sherly Crow and 50/60's music..

Any suggestions?

Thanks,,
LC

What about something like "My Girl"...?
Sweet, not overly sentimental, not overly upbeat but also not overly ballad....

Google has been my best friend while planning my wedding.

Here are some 60's:

Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch
More Today Than Yesterday

Also, listen to the soundtrack from "Dirty Dancing".

"I've Had The Time of My Life"
"Be My baby"
"stay"

Good luck.

I love Feeling Good by Michael Buble! It has the older upbeat, sultry style. It kind of reminds me of a spy movie, but everytime I hear it I want to dance around.

I am using "Landslide" by Fleetwood Mac (I know there are several other versions as well). It's not quite so sappy as some other songs, IMHO

I'm doing Daughter by Loudon Wainwright...the song at the end of "Knocked Up"...listen to the lyrics, it's a very cute song!

One of my bridesmaids got married last summer and kept her Father/Daughter dance a secret to everyone. They danced to "Sweet Child Of Mine" and it was so sweet!
