You should definitely use whatever song you want. I am going to use a song that my dad used to sing to me when I was little that is neither touching or wedding related--I am sure everyone at the wedding is going to be like what the F?

Re: Father/daughter songs?
You Lite Up My Life by Debbie Boone. This song is means so much to me and my Dad because when I was little I used to sing it to him. He was just saying the other day about when I used to sing this song to him. He does not know that I am using this song to dance with him.

Junebride, I love that song too .. so sweet. I'm actually going to do that as a special dedication to my mom. She's been soooo great through all of this & I want something special for her too.

nylisa - you light up my life was my nannys FAVORITE song. I can't even listen to it or I cry like a baby. I REALLY wanted to use that song in memory of her (at some pt of the night) but I think I will be useless the rest of the night if I do. I wish I could

Re: Father/daughter songs?
How Sweet It Is To Be Loved By You. I choose this one for 2 reasons. I really didn't want a slow song b/c that usually has everyone crying but more importantly, my dad was in a very bad accident last year which has left him in a wheelchair so a slow song will really have people crying even more. With this song I can kind of swirl around him and you can't help but smile when you hear it.

Re: Father/daughter songs?
Stop you are making me cry too...my dad and I have a really close relationship...everytime I think about the church or the dance I just break down. I don't know if I will be able to do it.

Betty, I understand what you mean. My sister downloaded it onto our computer and everytime I try to listen to it I cry.

Re: Father/daughter songs?
Betty, I am not sure how I am going to get through it. I know my Dad very well and as we are dancing he is probably going to be singing it the way I used to sing it to him (during some parts of the chorus I sounded like I had a southern accent). Hearing him singing like that is probably going to make me laugh.
