Father of the Bride/Bride - Mother of the Groom/GroomLove Songs and First Dances
Fortunate sung by Maxwell
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, Fortunate sung by Maxwell, 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 Fortunate by Maxwell
Written by R Kelly
Never seen a sun shine like this
Never seen the moon glow like this
Never seen the waterfalls like this
Never seen the lights off like this
Never dug anyone like this
Never had tasty lips to kiss
Never had someone to miss
Never wrote a song quite like this
[Chorus:]
Fortunate to have you girl,
I'm so glad you're in my world,
Just as sure as the sky is blue,
I bless the day that I found you.
Never had room service all night
Never took a trip first class flight
Never had a love affair so tight
I've never felt a feeling so right
Never seen a winter so white
Never had words to recite
Never had a flame to ignite
And I never sang a song with all my might.
[chorus 2x]
Silence child hope you hear
I'm callin out to your body
Baby you know just what to do
Close the door no interlude
[chorus 2x]
