Father/Daughter Dance

My father is disabled,so he too will not be able to dance with me,so I understand your probelem.I am going to skip it,or,you can also turn it into a mother-daughter dance

You could skip it or you could dance with your mother or brother or sister (if you have any). If you are going to do a subsitute dance, I would pick a song that would honour your father. "Dance with my Father" by Luther Vandross is a beautiful tribute song to a deceased dad. This way, you could still have your father/daughter dance just have the MC announce that you will be dancing with ___ in a tribute to your father who could only be here with you tonight in spirit. I`m truly sorry for your loss.

You could play a song in memory of him, a song he used to sing to you, one of his favorites or something like "Wind Benethe My Wings" or Faith Hill`s song from the Pearl Harbor movie, "There You`ll Be", I think is the name.

Good luck!

Whatever you deicide to do will untimately be right for you. A suggestion--instead of incorporating a photo of your father into your bouquet, why don`t you carry a smaller bouquet, in addition to your own, and place it at the altar in memory of your father? Also, instead of skipping the father/daughter dance, honor a male member of your family by asking him--brother, favorite uncle, Godfather, close cousin, brother-in-law, childhood friend. I had three blood uncles living when I married, but chose an uncle related by marriage because I felt closer to him. Your father lives in your heart and, therefore, will be all around you on your special day. Best wishes.

I really appreciate all of the suggestions. Thanks for taking the time to reply!

Geez...how annoying are those DJ ads?

Since Madison is walking you down the aisle, i think you should dance with him as a tribute to daddy. Madi is the only male daddy spawned(indirectly). And yes, i`m writing to you over the message board cause you never even asked me what i thought about the situation. I know it would have been a cry fest, so this works out better anyway. And i know which song to choose, (so do you, you just don`t know who sings it) your loving sister
