Unusual Father/Daughter Wedding Dance Song

Some bride-to-bes are specifically emotional, and desire to prevent balling like an infant throughout the dance with their daddy, so they desire something sweet, however not excessively psychological. A couple of bride-to-bes have actually discussed to me that they will certainly be dancing with their step-father, their father-in-law, their uncle, or their grandfather, and they desire a song that's not all about parenthood, however still matches the event. Some desire to do the waltz, others desire to keep some pep in their step with a positive song.
