I cant find a good song for the inlaws dance any suggestiions?

Question

bride/father-in-law and groom/mother-in-law

Answer 1

Did you want something somewhat upbeat - or just a nice slow song to dance to?

Here are a few that I can think of:

Oh How The Years Go By - Vanessa Williams

I Wish You Love - Natalie Cole

I Hope You Dance - Leeann Womack

I'll Be - Reba McEntire

Just Because - Anita Baker

Remember Me This Way - Jordan Hill

There You'll Be - Faith Hill

Blessed - Elton John

Stand By Me - Ben E. King

I'll Stand By You - The Pretenders

Cross My Heart - George Straight

Anytime You Need A Friend - Mariah Carey

Hope this helps! Good luck!   =)

Answer 2

Ask them for suggestions, since they will be dancing. If they don't have a favorite, ask your DJ...a good DJ will have plenty of suggestions.

Answer 3

Here are a few songs that are very beautiful ballads. In my opinion they are perfect for a FIL/DIL MIL/SIL dance...

Heavenly Day ~ Patty Griffin

Lyrics:

Oh heavenly day, all the clouds blew away

Got no trouble today with anyone

The smile on your face I live only to see

It's enough for me, baby, it's enough for me

Oh, heavenly day, heavenly day, heavenly day

Tomorrow may rain with sorrow

Here's a little time we can borrow

Forget all our troubles in these moments so few

All we've got right now, the only thing that

All we really have to do

Is have ourselves a heavenly day

Lay here and watch the trees sway

Oh, can't see no other way, no way, no way

Heavenly day, heavenly day, heavenly day

No one at my shoulder bringing me fears

Got no clouds up above me bringing me tears

Got nothing to tell you, I've got nothing much to say

Only I'm glad to be here with you

On this heavenly, heavenly, heavenly, heavenly

Heavenly day, all the trouble's gone away

Oh, for a while anyway, for a while anyway

Heavenly day, heavenly day, heavenly day

Kind and Generous ~ Natalie Merchant

Lyrics:

la la la la la la la la la.................

You've been so kind and generous, I don't know how you keep on giving

For your kindness I'm in debt to you

For your selflessness, my admiration

For everything you've done, you know I'm bound, I'm bound to

thank you for it....

la la la la la la la la la ...........................

You've been so kind and generous, I don't know how you keep on giving

For your kindness I'm in debt to you

And I never could have come this far without you

For everything you've done, you know I'm bound, I'm bound to

thank you for it....

Na Na na na na na na na na na

na na na na na na na na na na

Oh, I want to thank you for so many gifts you gave with love and tenderness,

I wanna thank you

I want to thank you for your generosity, the love and the honesty that you gave me

I want to thank you, show my gratitude, my love and my respect for you,

I wanna thank you

Oh I want to thank you, thank you, thank you,

thank you, thank you, thank you...

Family ~ Dolly Parton

Lyrics:

When its family, you forgive them for they know not what they do

When its family, you accept them, cause you have no choice but to

When its family, theyre a mirror of the worst and best in you

And they always put you to the test

And you always try to do your best

And just pray for God to do the rest, when its family

Some are preachers, some are g*y

Some are addicts, drunks and strays

But not a one is turned away, when its family

Some are lucky, others aint

Some are fighters, others faint

Winners, losers, sinners, saints, its all family

And when its family you trust them and your hearts an open door

When its family, you tolerate what youd kill others for

When its family, you love and hate and take, then give some more

Somehow you justify mistakes, try to find some better way

To solve the problems day to day, in the family

You take the trouble as it comes and love them more than anyone

Good or bad or indifferent, its still family

You choose your lovers, you pick your friends

Not the family that youre in, nah

Theyll be with you til the end, cause its family

And when its family, you forgive them for they know not what they do

When its family, theyre a mirror of the worst and best in you

When its family, when its family

Let me be all that I should be to the family
