Maybe you guys can help me out. My dad has not really been in my life. i might see him once a year and rarely talk on the phone. i was wondering should i have a father and daughter dance or will it look weird if i dont do it at all. I feel weird. HELP!
i would say you dont have to do anything you dont want to do.. if youre not close to him and dont feel its necessary, then dont do it. i dont think it would be weird at all. my cousin just got married this past year and did not have a father daughter dance, and actually didnt even invite her father to the wedding (her parents got divorced when she was 14 maybe??).

that is going to be a weird to dance with someone that was never around. So my answer will be no i wouldnt
I dont think so...
do what you want. those who matter dont mind, and those who mind dont matter.
Believe it or not, if you are not close with your dad but you are close with your mom you could always do a mother daughter dance to a song like 'in my daughter's eyes.' i went to a wedding very recently that had a similar situation and that's what the bride opted to do.
I have the same problem. My father has always been pretty much non-existant in my life since I was 6 months old. He'll call every birthday and Christmas, but he basically knows nothing about me. I think I might just avoid the whole Father/Daughter dance. I would prefer to have it with my step-dad, but I don't want to hurt my real dad's feelings, even though he probably deserves it...
I have a similar yet slightly different situation. My dad was around in my life in the sense that he lives with us but he was never an active part. I know I have to dance with him but have no idea to what?! We are not lovey dovey and he isnt the first man i loved tpe thing...help!
If you don't feel comfortable incorporating a father/dtr dance I would say not to do it. Maybe you can do something different like an anniversary dance for those ones that have been married over a certain amount of years.JMO
If you feel weird then don't do it. Im not having one, my father is not in my life either, and My uncle is walking me down. I'm doing a mother daughter dance instead. That may be a better idea.
I would say do what you feel comfortable with....maybe you can dance half the song with him and then half with your mom or something like that to give credit to both.
i wouldn't dance with him if he wasnt around... that doesn't make him special enough, for me at least, to give him a part in my wedding.... i wouldn't.. that's jmo, tho...
