Answer 4

It really comes down to your relationship with your dad. For my dad and I, we danced to Bob Dylan's version of "Forever Young." And it fit our relationship and our taste perfectly. We're very close, and are not only a dad and his daughter, but also pretty great friends too. So there is a sweet friendly love to that song that was amazing for us. The rhythm is slow and casual, and very easy to slow dance to. And the lyrics in his original version are a little different from the covers that other artists have done of it. That, and we went to a Dylan concert together a few years ago.

Find an artist that you both share, a sound you both like. Or let him pick. It will really show how he sees your relationship. :) Have fun with it. It's a great moment, dancing with your dad on such a big day of your life. Don't let a moment like that go without it being super personal and specific. :)

Answer 5

at my cousins wedding her and my uncle danced to Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlise.

that was also the song that was used for a father daughter dance at my studio(:

Answer 6

I didn't want a sappy song.... so I remembered hearing this song at the end of Knocked Up and knew immediately that it was the one- Daughter by Loudon Wainwright III.

I also put a twist on the whole father-daughter dance I'm also surprising my dad with Hank William Jr's "are you ready for some football" song right before the main father daughter dance. When I was little I ran into the room whenever that song came on (obviously, before a football game) and we danced together!
