Mother/son dance son for wedding????

[Iott Family]

What is a good song for a mother/son to dance to at a wedding?
???????

 

[Minnesota!]

"My Wish" by Rascal Flatts. I don't like country music, but this one tears me up everytime. I plan on using it at my kids weddings (in like 20 years!)...

 

[PrincessKsMom]

As the bride, I danced with my mom to "Wind Beneath My Wings" by Bette Midler. It could also be used for mother/son dance.

"My Wish"

I hope that the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
And each road leads you where you want to go,
And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' till you find the window,
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,

But more than anything, more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
And you always give more than you take.

But more than anything, yeah, and more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

This is my wish
I hope you know somebody loves you
May all your dreams stay big

My son's only 3.5 but I hope to dance with him someday to 'I Hope You Dance' by Leann Womack. I have been singing this song to him since he was born. Congrats to your 'little boy'!

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat
But always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking
Lovin' might be a mistake
But it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart
Leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out
Reconsider
Give the heavens above
More than just a passing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
Dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
I hope you dance
(Where those years have gone)

(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

My son is only 10, but I've known for a long time that I want us to dance to Stevie Wonder's "You Are The Sunshine Of My Life".

 

[CookieDiva]

Our SIL chose the song for his mother/son dance and he chose Celine Dion's "Because you Loved Me."

I did not know that the mother was supposed to do the choosing of the song.

DD chose the song for her father/daughter dance and chose "I Loved Her First."

I LOVE this song...I want it to be my father/daughter dance song!!

I also want it dedicated to my kids at my funeral...is that morbid??

As a Disney Lover, I thought I would like to dance to "You'll Be In My Heart" from the Tarzan movie.

It takes a lot to know what is love
Its not the big things, but the little things
That can mean enough
A lot of prayers
to get me through
And there is never a day that passes by
I dont think of you
You were always there for me
Pushing me and guiding me
Always to succeed
Chorus
You showed me
When I was young just how to grow
You showed me
Everything that I should know
You showed me
Just how to walk without your hands
cause mom
you always were
The perfect fan
God has been so good
Blessing me with a family
Who did all they could
And Ive had many years of grace
And it flatters me when I see a smile on your face
I wanna thank you for what youve done
In hopes I can give back to you
And be the perfect son
Chorus
You showed me how to love
You showed me how to care
And you showed me that you would
Always be there
I wanna thank you for that time
And Im proud to say youre mine
Chorus
cause mom you always were,
Mom you always were
Mom you always were,
You know you always were
cause mom you always were... the perfect fan
I love you mom

Before I even read any of the other posts this was the song that popped into my head. I can't even listen to it without crying. It's exactly how I feel about my boys.

A Song For Mama - Boyz II Men

You taught me everything
And everything you've given me
I'll always keep it inside
You're the driving force in my life, yeah
There isn't anything
Or anyone that I can be
And it just wouldn't feel right
If I didn't have you by my side
You were there for me to love and care for me
When skies were grey
Whenever I was down
You were always there
To comfort me
And no one else can be
What you have been to me
You'll always be
You will always be the girl
In my life for all times


Chorus:
Mama
Mama you know I love you
(Oh you know I love you)
Mama
Mama you're the queen of my heart
Your love is like
Tears from the stars
Mama I just want you to know
Lovin' you is like food to my soul


(yes it is, yes it is,ohhhhh
You're always there for me
Have always been around for me even when I was bad
You showed me right from my wrong
(Yes you did)
And you took up for me
When everyone was downin' me
You always did understand
You gave me strength to go on
There was so many times
Looking back when I was so afraid
And then you come to me
And saaaayyyyy,
I can face anything
And no one else can do
What you have done for me
You'll always be
You will always be
The girl in my life
(oooo, oohh)


Chorus

Never gonna go a day without you
Fill's me up just thinking about you
I'll never go a day
Without my mama


Chorus

A Song For My Son - By Mikki Viereck

I don't know where
The time has gone
Since those little boy days
Doesn't seem that long
Yet here you are
It's your wedding day
And there's one thing darling
I'd like to say...

CHORUS:
Be kind, be sweet
Be a gentle man
Care and share
And always be fair
And remember though you now
Have taken a wife
You will always be my son
My Loving son

You filled my life
With so much joy
As I watched you grow
From that little boy
Now I'll try not to cry
As you walk away
And just once more darling
I'd like to say...

REPEAT CHORUS

Be kind, be sweet
Be a gentle man
Care and share
And always be fair
And remember though you now
Have taken a wife
You will always be my son
My Loving son

Please pass the tissues.....

I'm such a sentimental softie; these lyrics and suggestions have tears streaming down my cheeks.

If my dd8 asks me to read "Love You Forever" to her tonight, I'll be a puddle on the floor.

Its not my boy who is getting married. My BIL is the lucky bloke. They asked Dh fora ssistance getting songs picked out and we were all stumped on the mother/son dance song. So I came to my Dis buddies who have a wide plethora of knowledge about EVERYTHING and NOT just the mouse!

So thanks! And keep the ideas coming!

My son's only 3.5 but I hope to dance with him someday to 'I Hope You Dance' by Leann Womack.

That is the song that my MIL picked to dance with my hubby at our wedding

 

[disney kid at heart]

I LOVE this song...I want it to be my father/daughter dance song!!

I also want it dedicated to my kids at my funeral...is that morbid??

That's going to be played at mine to (funeral) along with a bunch of songs. It's not morbid. I call it planning ahead.
