Mother and Son Dance

Do they still have a mother and son dance at the reception?  It's been awhile since my first son's wedding.  Any thoughts? 

Re: Mother and Son Dance

  • Yes mother-son dances still occur at lots of weddings. My FI is dancing to "Perfect Fan" by The Backstreet Boys with his Mom.
  • All of our sons in law danced with their moms!
  • Yep. DH used A Song For Mama by Boyz II Men

  • We DJ on the side here in CA and we see mother/son all the time.  Sometimes it's just father/daughter.  Whatever works for you is awesome.  I don't think it's required to have or not have one.

  • It's really up to the groom and his mother.  Neither H nor his mom wanted a spotlight dance, so we only had father-daughter at our wedding.

    Thanks so much.  Now all I need is to find the perfect song.
  • My fiance and his mother are doing a special dance. They're dancing to "Because You Loved Me" by Celine Dion. My FI is not thrilled, but it's one of her favorite songs :)
  • "You've Got A Friend In Me" from Toy Story
  • Yes I think a mother and son dance is still very popular. I think it's a great tradition :)
  • Yes, we do want to dance. I've been his biggest fan since he was a little boy.  I know he is going to make a great husband.  I taught him to always have respect for others, but respect himself first.. When his brother got married 12 years ago, we danced to "What A Wonderful World". I still tear up thinking about it. Now to find a song......... Thanks guys!
