Mother-Son Dance with my son and I - The PASH Wedding Forums and Message Boards

Well we are already doing a Father-Daughter Dance (with my dad and I) and a Mother-Son Dance (with Ian and his mom), but would it be ok to do a Mother-Son dance with my son and I as well. I was thinking "If There Hadn't Been You" by Billie Dean

This sight plays the song and displays the lyrics

I think the focus should be on you and your groom.

While you can certainly dance with your son later, I think a spotlight dance would be a bit too much.

I think it would be perfectly fine....Justin had a dance that both my daughters split with him just so they felt like they were part of the new family....and I danced with both my daughters as well....I don't see why you couldn't.....They did have the DJ announce the dance and they picked the song out together at the last minute...it wasn't planned.

I am having a mother/daughter dance with my daughter. After a little while, I will have the DJ ask for other mother/daughters to join us. I think it is a very touching things that you are doing.

IMO....if the bride and groom have children- whether it be from the current relationship or a previous one, I feel the wedding is not just about the bride and groom but the unity of the whole family and a small part of the wedding-be it- at the alter or at the dance, I feel the children should be acknowledged in someway. Like I said, IMO.

It would be fine, but just keep your guests in mind. I've been to a wedding where they did too many "special dances" and it got a little irritating for the guests. But, it IS your day, and if you want to do it, then do it.

I think it would be fine. Your wedding is the union of you and your husband along with your son. I think it would be so sweet to see.

About half way through my father's and my dance Alan asked his oldest daughter to dance and the 2 younger girls asked their grandfather and greatgrandfather to dance.
