we were supposed to do ours at the beginning but since we had room lighting we decided to wait for it to get dark so the pictures would come out better with the lighting. so we did the dances after dinner then did the cake cutting.

Actually, I've never been to a wedding where the parent-children dances were done after the cake was cut. At the weddings I've been to, they're usually done just as the entre meal ends and plates are being picked up

Re: Is it the 'norm' to have the father/daughter dance.....

ours were after the cake was cut, but i've been to a lot of weddings where the parent dances were done right after the first dance.

Everyone that i have been to has been done after the cake was cut. That's when we did it. It's definitely up to you though.

This is what my band said is normal. I thought I was going to split them up, but now I am thinking I will do them both at the same time (back to back) so that there are less interruptions later.

I did mine after the toasts. We got the first dance, toasts, and parents dances all done before dinner. I didn't want to inturrupt the party too much.

Re: Is it the 'norm' to have the father/daughter dance.....

ours were done after dinner, before the cake cutting.
