We're doing a combined father/daughter mother/son dance at our wedding to "Never Alone" by Lady Antebellum. It's not overly sappy, but still a really sweet song...
May the angels protect you
Trouble neglect you
And heaven accept you when it's time to go home
May you always have plenty
Your glass never empty
Know in your belly
You're never alone
May your tears come from laughing
You find friends worth having
With every year passing
They mean more than gold
May you win but stay humble
Smile more than grumble
And know when you stumble
You're never alone
Never alone
Never alone
I'll be in every beat of your heart
When you face the unknown
Wherever you fly
This isn't goodbye
My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone
Well, I have to be honest
As much as I want it
I'm not gonna promise the cold winds won't blow
So when hard times have found you
And your fear surround you
Wrap my love around you
You're never alone
Never alone
Never alone
I'll be in every beat of your heart
When you face the unknown
Wherever you fly
This isn't goodbye
My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone
May the angels protect you
Trouble neglect you
And heaven accept you when it's time to go home
And when hard times have found you
And your fear surround you
Wrap my love around you
You're never alone
Never alone
Never alone
I'll be in every beat of your heart
When you face the unknown
Wherever you fly
This isn't goodbye
My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone
My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone
We did a combo Mother/Son, Father/Daughter dance to This Will Be by Natalie Cole.
We also did a combo dance, to "In My Life" by the Beatles. I think most songs are at least somewhat cheesy, but I wanted to pick a song that I knew our parents would be familiar with.
I've not really ever heard of anyone doing a combo dance... But that's a good idea!Not sure my FMIL would go for that though. She is all about her "baby boy" prbably wouldn't want to share the dance floor. lol
@UpstateCait:That's actually the song that I have picked for the father/daughter dance. I LOVE the lyrics!
@Mrs.tobe: Actually it seems to be pretty common in my neck of the woods. We personally did it because I didn't want the dances to go on forever, and it felt a little more comfortable to have more people on the dancefloor.
@Brianalaura: Thats exactly why we're doing the combo. It's actually not popular where I'm from but having been a wedding guest about a dozen times, sitting through tons of specialty dances can get boring quick. My dad is also pretty shy so sharing the spotlight would make him much more comfortable.
@UpstateCait: Yeah it ended up great for both of those reasons! Good luck on your big day, the lyrics to the song you picked sound great.
@Brianalaura:Well it's got my vote! It's not that popular in my neck of the woods either, but maybe we'll be the beginning of a new trend!
I recently went to a wedding where 'Bridge over troubled water' by Simon and Garfunkel was the mother/son dance, I thought it was lovely!
We did a combo parent dance to "Sunshine of My Life" by Stevie Wonder. It's a fun, upbeat song. My dad likes to boogie!
You Are The Sunshine Of My Life
That's Why I'll Always Stay Around
You Are The Apple Of My Eye
Forever You'll Stay In My Heart
I Feel Like This Is The Beginning
Though I've Loved You For A Million Years
And If I Thought Our Love Was Ending
I'd Find Myself Drowning In My Own Tears
You Are The Sunshine Of My Life
That's Why I'll Always Stay Around
You Are The Apple Of My Eye
Forever You'll Stay In My Heart
You Must Have Known That I Was Lonely
Because You Came To My Rescue
And I Know That This Must Be Heaven
How Could So Much Love Be Inside Of You
You Are The Sunshine Of My Life
That's Why I'll Always Stay Around
You Are The Apple Of My Eye
Forever You'll Stay In My Heart
You Are The Sunshine Of My Life
That's Why I'll Always Stay Around
You Are The Apple Of My Eye
Forever You'll Stay In My Heart

The FI and I are both having a hard time deciding what he and his mother should be dancing to...
Any ideas?
