Daughter is getting married, I need to come up with a "Father Daughter Dance" song.?
My little girl is 21 and marrying a cool guy. At the wedding, there will be the Father Daughter dance which has me stressed. I have to pick the song. I did the typical dad response at first, "You go ahead and pick out what you want".
This week I called her after hearing "Sweet Child of Mine" by GNR for the millionth time and asked her to make that the song. waddaya think? big mistake? It's supposed to be a slow dance. If you have a better song to pick, I'll give ya Best Answer.
I'd like to make a good impression. I don't want to embarass her, she's such a sweetie she'll go along with whatever I pick without comment. btw, this is a huge wedding. My wife has gone all out. Thanks..

Daddy's Eyes. Don't know who does it, but I think it would be perfect. I wish it would have been around when I danced with my dad.

First congratulations and a tip of the hat to another father of a beautiful daughter, YOU have to listen to a song by the Stylistics called "You're a big girl now", no more daddy's little girl, it is Old School and will be appropriate in any venue. Also "Fathers be good to your daughters" by John Mayer is really cool.
Do a lyrics search and read the words to the first song My daughter is 20 and That is the one I have been planning to play for her since her birth.
Good Luck from one loving father to another!

There is NO WAY you can slow dance to Sweet Child of Mine...k my suggestion (much like everyone else) is Butterfly Kisses...There is even talk of the dad giving her daughter away in that song...

AW, I am 21 and getting married in September and me and my dad are dancing to "Butterfly Kisses". If you have never heard it listen to the words, I think that it would be a good choice.

I would not have a Guns & Roses song at the wedding. It is not "wedding-like". We had Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlisle. I picked this song as the father describes his daughters stages of life with him before her wedding day.
Here are the lyrics:
There's two things I know for sure ...
She was sent here from heaven,
And she's Daddy's Little Girl.
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night,
She talks to Jesus and I close my eyes;
And I thank God for all of the joy in my life
Oh, but most of all ...
For butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer,
Sticking little white flowers all up in hair.
"Walk beside the pony Daddy,
It's my first ride;
I know the cake looks funny Daddy,
But I sure tried!"
Oh, with all that I've done wrong,
I must have done something right
To deserve a hug every morning
And butterfly kisses at night.
Sweet 16 today ...
She's looking like her mama
A little more every day;
One part woman, the other part girl,
To perfume and make-up,
From ribbons and pearls
Trying her wings out in a great big world.
But I remember
Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer,
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair.
"You know how much I love you Daddy,
But if you don't mind,
I'm only gonna kiss you on the cheek this time."
With all that I've done wrong,
I must have done something right
To deserve her love every morning
And butterfly kisses at night.
All the precious time,
Oh, like the wind the years go by,
Precious butterfly ...
Spread your wings and fly.
She'll change her name today,
She'll make a promise and I'll give her away;
Standing in the bride room just staring at her,
She asks me what I'm thinking
And I said "I'm not sure ...
I just feel like I'm losing my baby girl."
Then she leaned over and gave me
Butterfly kisses with her mama there;
Sticking little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk me down the aisle Daddy ...
It's just about time;
Does my wedding gown look pretty Daddy?
Daddy don't cry."
Oh, with all that I've done wrong,
I must have done something right;
To deserve her love every morning
And butterfly kisses at night.
I couldn't ask God for more ...
Man, this is what love is;
I know I've got to let her go
But I'll always remember every hug in the morning
And butterfly kisses at night ...
