Songs For Mother/son Dance At Wedding

Though you have been so often in quarrel with your daughter, trying to tell her what was the best for her from your womanly point of view, it was only your personal way of thinking how to keep her away from trouble. In this regard you have asked many times for your son’s help and that of your husband as well, though his working schedule didn’t allow him too often to be around, unfortunately. Most of the times your son ended up keeping an eye on his little sister, and you have always counted on him the moment they went out socializing or going to a movie late in the evenings.




Now with your son’s wedding event you imagine how your life would be worrying all the time about your girl and though she is not a teenager any more, you still need someone to watch over her. But your son’s wedding is something you can’t prevent from happening; you have felt it coming for one year already, the point is that you just couldn’t imagine when?! The planning of his wedding celebration takes a lot of involvement on the bride’s mother’s behalf and you try to interfere all the time asking if there isn’t something you could do as well.

Your son, as he has always been, is overprotective – he keeps telling you to mind your own business at home and relax and let him and his bride handle the things. But as your daughter is giving a helping hand with the planning you try to include your presence in any way possible, thus you could assist with the shopping, with the necessary things that need to be purchased, and be the ‘person in the shadow’ that helps with the financial supports when it came to purchase the wedding rings. Your son and his fiancée have ordered for the right models and let the mother of the bride handle the financial details.

But you have secretly talked with her deciding to help in regard to the payment dues for the wedding rings. At least this you could do, and managing to plot this entire scenario with the bride’s mother gives you the feeling of accomplishing something useful for your son and his bride. Other moment which allows you to interfere in a way or another is the choice of songs. You are quite good at it; you have helped in this regard the daughter of your cousin who had celebrated her wedding last year and assisted her with the music for her special event.

You also know that the traditional way to celebrate the wedding inside the displaying of a reception is the presence of representative dances that take place on the dance floor inside the reception hall hired to host the wedding party. These dances are performed at a certain moment, right after the big entrance of the bride and groom performing now as new characters – wife and husband -, and are displayed as father/daughter dance, mother/son dance and the first dance.

Your implication in this part of the reception planning is to find songs for mother/son dance at wedding party, songs that you list down on a paper for later to decide which one the one: “Blessed” by Elton John, “Close to you” by The Carpenters, “Do you remember” performed by Phil Collins. The winning song for mother/son dance at wedding proves to be the one to belong to Phil Collins but you plan to readjust the lines using verses of your own, describing the times of your son’s childhood and memories of his teenage period.
