Father of the Bride/Bride - Mother of the Groom/GroomLove Songs and First Dances
Because You Loved Me by Celine Dion
Most wedding receptions will start with the brand new husband and wife having their first romantic dance as their life together begins.  After the first dance, tradition has two further dances. The first of these is with everyone dancing, but led by the bride and her father with the second again everyone, but led by the groom and his mother. It's entirely upto you how many songs you have to start your new life together. Some only have one and invite their guests to join them half way through. Others have two and do the first on their own and invite all guests to join in on the second. The only advice we can offer is to do what you feel is right. Some people hate the thought of dancing infront of their friends and family, other relish it. One thing we really can help with is the choice of song. Unfortunataly when you listen to most slow songs, they are actually about people breaking up so not very suitable as a first dance! Here are the lyrics to a song that is about people being in love, Because You Loved Me by Celine Dion, so you can see if the lyrics suit your situation. You can also hear an audio sample and check out some father/bride and mother/groom songs too, all by scrolling down.

Lyrics to Be Mine
sung by David Gray
From the very first moment I saw you
That's when I knew
All the dreams I held in my heart
Had suddenly come true
Knock me over stone cold sober
Not a thing I could say or do
'Cos baby when I'm walking with you now
My eyes are so wide
Like you reached right into my head
And turned on the light inside
Turning on the light
Inside my mind hey
Come on baby it's all right
Sunday, Monday, day or night
Red or blue or white it's plain to see
Be mine, be mine
Rainy, shiny, night or day
What's the difference anyway
Honey, till your heart belongs to me
If I had some influence girl
With the powers that be
I'd have them fire that arrow at you
Like they fired it right at me
And maybe when your heart and soul are burning
You might see
That everytime I'm talking with you
It's always over too soon
That everyday feels so incomplete
Till you walk into the room
Say the word now girl
I'll jump that moon hey
Come on baby it's OK
Rainy, shiny, night or day
There's nothing in the way now
Don't you see
Be mine, be mine
Winter, summer, day or night
Centigrade or Fahrenheit
Baby till your heart belongs to me
Be mine be mine
Thursday, Friday, short or long
When you got a love so strong
How could it be wrong now mercy me
Be mine be mine
Jumpin' Jesus holy cow!
What's the difference anyhow
Baby till your heart belongs to me
--now my heart is on fire, now my body's on fire, now I'm losing
my sanity---
Be mine be mine
