Father Daughter Dance Songs

Modern Wedding Posted: May 22, 2014

Father-daughter-dance-songs

Nerves might stop those tears from falling as you walk the aisle, but it’ll be hard to hold them back as you dance with your dad to any of these father daughter dance songs! These tear jerkers are heartfelt and meaningful giving justice to the very special love of a father.

A father daughter dance song can be played at any point during dancing, but the most obvious time is straight after your first wedding dance. As most of these father daughter dance songs are played at a rather slow tempo it can lead on more naturally from your first song which is also likely to be of a slower tempo.

Special thanks to all our Facebook brides for sharing their father daughter dance songs with us!
