Father and daughter dance at a wedding: features of tradition and choice of music

A wedding is an important event in the life of newlyweds and their parents. This is a kind of milestone in the beginning of an independent, adult life. The newlyweds, having flown out of the parental nest, will wind their own. For moms and dads, a wedding celebration is a great joy, because their children grew up, met and fell in love with each other, just like they themselves once did.

Moms do not hide their feelings, crying with happiness, and dads try to be solid and calm. However, in the dance of father and daughter, all their mutual love and tenderness spills out.

In our time, of course, this is no longer the case, but a beautiful tradition is preserved. Therefore, in the program of almost every wedding banquet, the bride's dance with her father is a separate item.

In order for the dance of father and daughter to become one of the most memorable moments of the celebration, it must be prepared in advance - choose a style, musical composition, rehearse the movements. The choice of a dance genre largely depends not only on the musical taste of the girl's family, but also on physical capabilities, because often the parents of the newlyweds are already elderly people. Therefore, what is not difficult for young people can be a daunting task for them.

Of course, the most popular type of dance for a daughter and a father is considered to be slow., but lately it has become more and more fashionable to stage a cheerful, incendiary dance to a medley of modern songs. The movements can be chosen quite simple, and the cheerful melody will captivate the invited guests to the dance floor.Of course, you need to practice in advance to get the perfect wedding performance.

A variant of mixing styles is possible, when the dance begins as a slow one (for example, a white dance), and then the music changes to energetic. With good preparation, a very beautiful number can be obtained.

If you don't want platitudes, you can think of something more original and fun. For example, you can create a comic play with songs from cartoons. The result will be a funny show that will be appreciated by all guests. A variant of performing some folk dance is also possible. Most parents are not guided in modern trends, but they remember very well how they danced in their youth.

The most touching will be the performance of a song written with his own hand - a gift to his father. If you are afraid that the voice of excitement will let you down, record the song in advance, and at the celebration just dance with your dad to it. Believe me, your father will be moved to tears. A good option would be the opposite option - a song composition - a surprise from a father for a daughter. The main thing is to agree in advance with the toastmaster about including her in the scenario of the celebration.

A slow dance to a gentle melody is the easiest option, because there are no difficult dance steps in it. Even the most unprepared people can sway rhythmically to the music. However, you should not think that this is trite and ugly. In fact, such a moment will be very sweet and touching, especially if you choose the right composition. If you agree to something more complex, you can opt for the classic waltz. This is a graceful and majestic dance that will emphasize the importance of this moment in your life.

If you have decided on the style of performance, you need to select the appropriate musical accompaniment. If your choice fell on an incendiary potpourri, search the Internet for compositions suitable for the dance moves that you decide to perform. The choice is unlimited here.

For a classic waltz, the following may be suitable:

• "Father's Daughter" performed by Alsou;
• "White Veil" by Soso Pavliashvili;
• Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton;
• "Wedding Waltz" by Timur Temirov or another composition of your choice.

To perform a regular slow dance, you can choose:

• "Father is next to you" by Leonid Agutin;
• "When We Were Young" by Adele;
• "Dance of Father and Daughter" by Maxim Lidov or any other suitable melody.

Rehearsals are best done in advance rather than on the eve of the wedding. Believe me, during this period of time there will not be enough for anything, too many unresolved trifles will arise at the most inopportune moment. Therefore, rehearse the dance in wedding dresses and shoes several times in advance, test the banquet floor - check if it will slip, creak, etc.

Choosing a moment to dance at a celebration is also a serious matter, because if alcohol is present at a wedding (and this happens in 95% of cases), guests' drunkenness can ruin a touching moment. But even at the very beginning of the banquet, you should not dance it. It is better to announce it around the second half of the wedding celebration, so to speak, "for dessert." Consult with the manager (toastmaster), he must have a wealth of experience in holding such events, so he will definitely recommend the best option.

Summing up, we can say one thing - focus on your desires and capabilities, because this is your holiday. And dance, as one of the most important moments of the celebration, can be whatever you want.
