Mother-Daughter Dance

Hi KimmieG;
I danced with my mom at my wedding to 'A Song for Mama' by Boys II Men. It was very appropriate for us since she raised me by herself. Another song you might want to consider is 'If I Could' by Regina Belle. It is a beautiful song about a parents love for their child. Here are the words...I love this song!

If I could
I’d protect you from the sadness in your eyes
Give you courage in a world of compromise
Yes, I would

If I could
I would teach you all the things I’ve never learned
And I’d help you cross the bridges that I’ve burned
Yes, I would

If I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
But the part of life I gave you isn’t mine
I’ll watch you grow, so I can let you go

If I could
I would help you make it through the hungry years
But I know that I can never cry your tears, babe
But I would If I could

If I could
In a time and place where you don’t wanna be
You don’t have to walk along this road with me
My yesterday won’t have to be your way

If I knew
I’d try to change the world I brought you to
Now there isn’t much more that I can do
But I would If I could

If I could
I would try to shield your innocence from time
But the part of life I gave you isn’t mine
I’ll watch you grow, so I can let you go

If I could
I’d help you make it through the hungry years
But I know that I can never cry your tears
But I would If I could

Have you asked your DJ or band? They are usually have a wealth of information to help you choose the perfect song to express your feelings on your most special day.

Best wishes and happy wedding planning,

Rebecca

Great Parent dance song!!!

I just returned from giving a seminar for brides and a similar question came up tonight at the seminar.
Two of the songs I recommend in this situation are
'I Hope You Dance' by Lee Ann Womack
and
'Through The Years' by Kenny Rogers
They are both beautiful and meaningful without getting
overly emotional.
You can download these over the internet or go to any major record store (Tower Records etc) and ask to hear them under the listening station.
Please feel free to contact me directly by email
[email protected] if you need additional help.
