Father Daughter Wedding Dance Songs

When a wedding is announced everybody knows that there is a daughter who will leave her parents' home and a son leaving his home, too and this separation is described in the moments that are included in the second part of a wedding celebration. These moments are emotionally underlined by the presence of music which takes control over the atmosphere of a wedding reception. This second part of the wedding introduces the bride and the groom as wife and husband to their guests and is triumphantly ending with the act of cake cutting and sharing.

The staging goes like this: after the ceremony is over through which the wedding couple is pronounced husband and wife in the presence of the minister, the invitees are kindly asked to further attend to the second part of the wedding where eating, drinking and dancing are about to take place in a location previously settled in the details of the wedding invitations. The exit of the invitees and the married couple out of the worship place is performed also on the sounds of music and everybody ends up in the reception hall where the cocktail hour of serving the guests with drinking is the moment to prepare the big entrance of the bride and groom.

The big entrance is thoroughly prepared by the performances of other acts: the entrance of the couple's parents followed by the bridal suite of bridesmaids and groomsmen and the last one and the most waited - the big entrance. All these acts are displayed on the musical background of songs that the professional DJ has selected together with wedding couple, songs that either have a certain emotional significance to the couple or songs that through their lyrics and tunes reflect a mood that is meant to be further transmitted to the audience.

After these entrances end the dance floor of the reception hall hosts the three important dancing acts loaded with feelings of nostalgia, love and appreciation: the father daughter dance - when the bride is dancing with her father on a song that reflects the separation of the little girl from her father, her hero whom now she replaces with the man of her life, mother son dance - when the groom is dancing with his mother on a song that reflects the son's love for her mother and a mother's support for her son, and the first dance - when bride and groom are dancing to a song that is supposed to have a lot of meanings, meanings that generally reflect the feelings of love, of supporting, of commitment in a celebration of a day that binds the couple forever.
