The Father-Daughter BAT MITZVAH Dance

For the past few years we've been tracking videos of brides and grooms and even some brides and their dads surprising wedding guests with creative dance routines.  We haven't seen a lot of grooms and moms.  Something to search for. Well, the trend has finally hit the Bat Mitzvah circuit.

And while most of us are many years away from that milestone I thought this video of a 13-year-old girl with her dad was very sweet and glad to know that the wedding world inspired them.  Take a look:

I Want to Share My Father-Daughter Dance With My Dad and Stepdad. How Can I?

Well you have two options. You can dance two separate dances and choose a special song for each one or you can begin dancing with your dad and have your stepdad cut in about half-way through.

Talk to your band/DJ to find out what they recommend. Two special dances plus the groom and his mom’s dance make about 8-10 minutes and to be honest after about the first 30 seconds no one is really paying attention. To keep your guests in the party mood you may want to choose one song.

But if you’d prefer two, break up the dances. Share the first dance with dad between the first and second course and the second dance with your stepdad between the second and dessert. Or vice versa.
