Father of the Bride/Bride - Mother of the Groom/GroomLove Songs and First Dances Breathless by Shayne Ward
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, Breathless by Shayne Ward, 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 Breathless sung by Shayne Ward
Songwriters: Birgisson, Arnthor; Yacoub, Rami; Kotecha, Savan
If our love was a fairytale
I would charge in and rescue you
On a yacht baby we would sail
To an island where we'd say I do
And if we had babies they would look like you
It'd be so beautiful if that came true
You don't even know how very special you are
Chorus
You leave me breathless
You're everything good in my life
You leave me breathless
I still can't believe that you're mine
You just walked out of one of my dreams
So beautiful you're leaving me
Breathless
And if our love was a story book
We would meet on the very first page
The last chapter would be about
How I'm thankful for the life we've made
And if we had babies they would have your eyes
I would fall deeper watching you give life
You don't even know how very special you are
Chorus
You must have been sent from heaven to earth to change me
You're like an angel
The thing that I feel is stronger than love believe me
You're something special
I only hope that I'll one day deserve what you've given me
But all I can do is try
Every day of my life
Chorus
