Lastly, the Mother-Son dance. I love this list by Bridal Guide because it gives awesome descriptions of the songs and what types of moms they'd be good for!
For Soulful Moms
"A Song For Mama" - Boyz II Men
A bit of a tear jerker, but this 90’s hit is a classic for the groom who is still a proud mama’s boy.
"God Bless The Child" – the original Billie Holiday version or Tony Bennett’s version
A classic, plain and simple. Both Billie and Tony do it justice; pick the artist your mom likes more.
"My Mother's Eyes" - Etta Jones
A jazzy and sweet song for a slower mother-son dance.
"To Zion" – Lauryn Hill
A great choice for a modern mom with a big heart.
For Country Mamas
"I Hope You Dance" - Lee Ann Womack
A new country classic that hits a sentimental yet joyful note.
"Coat of Many Colors" – Dolly Parton
A whimsical but touching country classic that your mom probably already knows and loves.
"My Wish" – Rascal Flatts
A modern country hit with a great melody and a positive message.
For Sentimental Moms
"Beautiful Boy" – John Lennon
A great tribute to a loving son.
"In My Life" – The Beatles
The quintessential song about the bond between parent and child.
"I’ll Have to Say I Love You in a Song" – Jim Croce
A simple song with big meaning for this special moment.
"Teach Your Children" – Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
A great choice for moms who remember (and love) the music of the 60’s and 70’s.
"What a Wonderful World" - Louis Armstrong
This is the classic mother-son dance song. It’s not "fresh," but it never gets old.
For Moms with a Humorous Side
"Take Your Mama" – Scissor Sisters
A really upbeat and fresh song for a lighthearted dance that guests will love to watch.
"Mama Tried" - Merle Haggard
A great track for the formerly rebellious groom who wants to tease his mom a little bit.
"Your Mama Don't Dance" - Loggins & Messina
A humorous twist on the occasion with a song everyone knows and loves.
For the Rocker Mom
"Sweet Child O' Mine" - Guns N' Roses
A fun song for an upbeat mother-son dance.
"Simple Man" – Lynyrd Skynyrd
A slower rock song that’s a mom tribute.
Essentially, it's all up to you on what you decide but I hope these lists inspire you to devour the details of your wedding music selection!
