Your family dynamics are complex. Let's figure it out.
There are no right or wrong answers, and almost everybody has some version of it. A stepdad who raised you and a dad who's coming anyway. A mom who isn't here anymore. Two people who haven't spoken in nine years, both sitting up front. So, who gets a dance with you?
I've done over 2,500 weddings. I've watched this go beautifully and I've watched it go sideways, and the difference is how it is handled. (I promise you, you're not the first person to ask me about this.)
Here's what you get:
Every Option, No Judgment.One dance each. One combined. Skip it and do something else instead. A dance with the person who raised you and a quiet moment with the other. A dance for somebody who's gone. They're all fine. This shows you what's actually on the table so you can pick what's right for your family.
What It Looks Like In The Room.For every one of those options. I'll walk you through what your guests see, what the vibe will be like, and how long to spend on each one.
The Parent Dance Songs.There are hundreds to choose from. You'll see which titles work for which situation. I'll tell you why each one lands... including what to do when the obvious song turns out to be the wrong song.
It's your day. Make it count.
