Are you doing the traditional father-daughter and mother-son dances at your wedding reception? Or are you trimming down the total number of reception traditions and cutting the parent dances? Are you saying "I do" to this tradition or ditching it? Photo from Wedding Choreography in Toronto Next...

Are you saying "I do" to this tradition or ditching it?

    We are doing it, but at the same time. Neither of our parents like the spotlight much, and we are trying to trim time. So Father Daughter and Mother son will both happen simultaneously to Humble and Kind by Tim McGraw.

    I don’t think so. My parents are divorced and I’m really close with my stepdad. I might just skip it so no ones feelings are hurt

    Ditching, my father passed away and my fiancé was already married so he already had a mother-son dance once before.

    Doing, although I’m not looking forward to it. I’m an awful dancer!

    As long as they're living - they shall dance dance!

    Both me and my Fiancé are lucky enough to have both of our parents in our lives so we will be taking full advantage and having a Mother-Son & Daddy-Daughter dance.
