Few wedding moments are more heart-warming than the Father/Daughter dance. Finding the perfect song to dedicate to the father figure in your life can be tricky given the wide variety available.

My advice is always to discuss this with your Father (figure). He may already have some ideas of his own! Of course it’s better to choose a song that already means something to you both (whether you share the love of the same artist/band etc). However if you’re going to choose the song together, it’s always useful to listen to/read through the lyrics of the song, be careful that they aren’t inappropriate for the situation.

Here are some ideas for a Father/Daughter dance:

Prince - The most beautiful girl in the world

Eric Clapton - Wonderful tonight

Guns n’ Roses - Sweet Child of Mine

Capolinea 24 - Sweet child of mine (acoustic cover)

The Temptations- My Girl

Stevie Wonder - Isn’t she lovely *(I have a great remix of this I can let you hear)

Stevie Wonder/Frank Sinatra - You are the sunshine of my life

Queen - You’re my best friend

Heartland - I loved her first

Love inc - You’re a superstar

Celine Dion - Because you loved me

Nancy Sinatra - It’s for my dad

Louis Armstrong - What a wonderful world

Rod Stewart - Have I told you lately

Michael Bublé - Daddy’s little girl

The Rolling Stones - She’s a rainbow

Nat King Cole & Natalie Cole - Unforgettable

Josh Groban/Westlife - You raise me up
