Dad's getting married...I need to pick a song. HELP!!

[Funky Feathers]

I like "Down the Road" by Kenny Chesney. Good father/daughter song.

We had a lady sing an old Conway song,The Rose. It was real sweet and fit the occasion well!

I was just listening to some songs the other day I thought would be lovely in a wedding! Might go well with the other music, too.

Randy Travis - Forever and ever - youtube.com/watch?v=sgJXbIP83A8&feature=relmfu

Don Williams - I believe in you - youtube.com/watch?v=-xbqe_GajtQ

Stand by me - youtube.com/watch?v=n7P5jWu9JLo
One of my favorite songs.. LOL.. This is just a cutsey version, for a wedding, perhaps Ben E. Kings?


Of course Im a huge fan of - What a wnderful world, Somewhere over the rainbow, The way you look tonight.. Hehe
Sorry, I havent been around long enough to post proper links! I hope its a wonderful day!

Wow... how warped am I that the first thought that came to mind was Ecstasy of Gold?

Sounds like the tunes played in old westerns when the hero is riding off into the sunset.... whoops.

Uhhh... let's see... country... or even oldies... the DD's walking... Butterfly Kisses?
Eh... that's more Father Daughter dance at the DD's wedding.
Same I suppose for Nat and Natalie doing Unforgettable together...

Hmmm.... Love Can Build A Bridge?? That's two ladies...

Something To Talk About is prolly too fast but I just LOVE that song. Reminds me of DH... swear we struck sparks off for a month before we finally went DUH.
Of course, Love Is Strange also comes to mind, but that's not exactly wedding-ish.

My Wish could maybe work... but it's RF singing... and to an Ex so... not so much. The sentiment is cool though.

Amazed by Faith and Tim could work as well... of course Boys to Men also did that one quite well.
Can You Stand The Rain is good too.... bit slow though.
They did a cover of In The Still of the Night that I rather like as well, but then I love the Five Satins too.

Hmmm... Tonight I Celebrate My Love For You... might be a bit weird for that to be the Kid's song though...

After All?? Cher and Peter. Boy that'll take you back a decade or three.

I Finally Found Someone Bryan Adams and Babs.
And speaking of Bryan Adams... Everything I Do, All For Love love both those.
Have You Ever Loved A Woman is fabulously luscious, but maybe not for an audience.

When I Said I Do is a lovely one... all the better since it's a Hubby and Wife singing it (like Amazed, It's Your Love)...

Eh, well it's a start anyways.

Edit... add in When You Say Nothing At All... LOVE that one, and it's prolly slow enough for your needs too.

That's a great one, especially for country music fans.

Daddy's Hands... that one always chokes me up... Dad, Ol' Papa, Papabear... it's all of them.
Not much for walking down the aisle but prolly be a great dancing one... but then it's past tense so maybe not.

Although this probably won't help you any, I've always wanted to have The Rain Song by Led Zeppelin played at some point during my wedding.
Such a beautiful song, gives me chills. It is rather long though.
Just a thought!
