Mother-Son Dance Songs

Every mother looks forward to taking a solo spin on the dance floor with her son at his wedding. It’ll likely be the only time all day that she’ll have him all to herself for roughly three whole minutes, so it’s important to pick a song that’s both appropriate and worthy of the moment. It may be bittersweet for her, or she may be celebrating more than anyone.

Some people also choose to combine the Father-Daughter and Mother-Son dances into one event. In that situation, look for a song that’s on this list as well as the Father-Daughter songs page of our website. There is some crossover, but not every song on this list will apply.

It’s important to keep in mind that song titles don’t tell the whole story – be sure to listen to ALL of the lyrics to a song prior to approving it for your Father-Daughter or Mother-Son dance. There are several songs that seem appropriate on the surface, but may not work for a dance with your parent(s).

Here are some suitable Mother-Son song suggestions:
