At any wedding there are both sentimental and lyrical moments, as well as solemn and pathetic ones. It is especially tender when children express their love and gratitude to their parents. And they certainly have something to thank them for.
It was the parents who stayed up at night, fed the child and put all of themselves into him. Dad, as a rule, disappeared at work in order to feed the whole family. But the mother was immersed in her child around the clock. Now the child has grown up, become an adult and an independent person.
Accordingly, parents can relax a little and reap the benefits of what they have nurtured. Before them is an independent person with his own worldview and beliefs. He is full of love, strength and energy. Today is the child's wedding day. And the child, in turn, wants to express love. Singing a song is a beautiful gesture from children.
How to choose a musical greeting from children in gratitude to their parents?
It is very difficult to choose just one option among the variety of musical compositions. You have to analyze and think for a long time to understand which track is best for your wedding.
To make it easier for you to decide on a single choice, it is better to find out in advance what options are generally possible:
- ditties - this music is best understood and pleasant for parents. Its melody is melodious and musical, so absolutely anyone can perform it , even if you are deaf. In most cases, ditties are funny rhymes that are performed to lively music.
- rap is a recently popular style that newlyweds are very fond of. It sounds bright and impressive at absolutely any celebration. Often this melody is sung by grooms, but brides often also sound beautiful, singing along to the beat in a woman’s voice.
- Popular pop music is the easiest option. It is best and easiest to remake it for a specific situation by inserting words of gratitude. The whole country knows and sings these hits, so your parents will be extremely pleased that such a popular musical composition is played specifically for them.

Wedding songs for parents from the groom
A musical gift from the groom, dedicated to those closest to him, has a number of main advantages, which can be safely included:
- The song can be a separate number that will decorate the wedding celebration. It will sound especially bright and interesting when performed by a groom with a good voice and hearing.
- If you manage to create an original track about love, then you will definitely be able to win the hearts of your loved ones and relatives. Subsequently, a musical composition can be passed down from generation to generation.
Please note that there are a lot of songs that have already been converted on the Internet. Accordingly, you don’t have to strain and do anything. But with proper execution it will be possible to create a real sensation on everyone present.
Select a track based on the musical preferences of the people to whom you dedicate it. If mom and dad love Pugacheva more, then your task is to remake her song. It is unlikely that parents will be happy with a rap artist unknown to them.
Wedding song from the bride to her parents
The girl prefers more lyrical and melodic musical compositions. After performing it, tears well up in my eyes. The song dedicated to my father sounds especially touching. The bride puts all of herself and soul into the performance of a popular musical composition.
It would be useful to add to her performance a slide show where the girl will be with her parents.
Popular musical compositions in this case are:
- “We are always with you.”
- "Mother"
Believe me, in order to make the right impression on everyone present, it is not at all necessary to choose a tragic melody. Alternatively, you can perform the well-known children's song “Daddy can do anything.”
If in the background there are photographs of the bride spending time with her father since childhood, then this number will definitely not leave anyone present indifferent.

A song for parents from children at a wedding.
In addition to the song itself, it is worth considering the moment who will accompany. There are several possible options. The simplest one is minus. In this case, talk to the sound director at the wedding in advance so that he knows what he will need to include and when.
If necessary, discuss additional points. For example, when to make a track louder, and when, on the contrary, to make it quieter.
If you wish, you can call a special group that will help you both play and perform a pre-prepared song. This option is good for those people who do not have sufficient hearing. The singer or singer will provide the main tone. The task of the bride and groom is to match the main performer.
Benefits of Gratitude in the Form of a Song
A song from children will give parents indescribable emotions and will become perhaps the highlight of the wedding.
Compared to other ways to express gratitude, song has these benefits.
- If the newlyweds have vocal abilities, their performance will be a magnificent decoration for the wedding.
- Creative couples can write the lyrics of the song themselves, creating their own unique congratulations for parents.
- Many sites have songs written specifically for congratulations, and adaptations of famous songs, of which only the melody remains.
It is worth noting that the remade song usually sounds more interesting, because most of the guests are familiar with its melody.
Newlyweds' first dance
Even if you haven’t choreographed the dance, it’s okay. After all, your first dance is not so much an element of the show, but an opportunity to once again feel that you have finally done it - become husband and wife! And, of course, the opportunity to show off in wedding dresses once again)))
Little trick:
- If your dance is not staged, have guests join you on the dance floor in a minute (ask the host to announce) - it will be beautiful and touching.
Bride and bridesmaids
A happy bride surrounded by a retinue of admiring friends is a shot that simply must be in your wedding album. Moreover, if you ordered dresses for your girlfriends in the colors of your celebration, made bouquets for them, or generally united your “team” with at least some detail. On the one hand, this is a tribute to your friends who shared your joy and came so dressed up that you can’t help but capture them))) On the other hand, such shots will remind you that on that day you were the real queen!
Little tricks:
- You can take a photo with your friends already at the gathering: dress the girls in colored robes/shirts/T-shirts with slogans and arrange a small “cocktail party” or eat sweets together - fun photos are guaranteed!
- Don't have enough budget to dress your girlfriends alike? Let each of the girls look in her wardrobe for an elegant dress in any of the colors of your wedding - then the palette will be consistent, and you won’t spend anything.
Bottom line
The ceremony of lighting the family hearth for children by the parents of the bride and groom cannot be called too expensive, but it creates a special romantic atmosphere at the wedding. Mothers of newlyweds convey with the flame of their candle a piece of family warmth and parental love.
From this moment on, the young wife is responsible for maintaining the home, and the young husband becomes its protector. Such a touching moment of a wedding celebration should have appropriate musical accompaniment. We wish you the wedding of your dreams!
Groom and his team
Male friendship is sacred! As well as photographs of the groom with his “gang”. Men want memorable photos too)))
Little trick:
- If everyone knows about identical dresses for bridesmaids, then the idea of dressing the groomsmen in the same way is not so familiar to us. But at foreign weddings this is a mandatory element, and photographs benefit greatly from this. You don’t have to dress your friends up and down: ask them to wear white shirts (every man has them in their wardrobe), and give them matching ties and/or boutonnieres in the colors of your wedding.
Where did the tradition come from?
Not all rituals performed at modern weddings have long historical roots. One of these recently invented ones is the lighting of a family hearth. This beautiful, impressive sight echoes the need for an open fire in the homes of our ancestors. But the ritual of its (fire) transmission never existed.
This ritual was invented by our contemporaries, wedding planners. It involves all the main characters of this celebration: the groom, the bride and their parents. The ritual is highly significant for a young family. This is a kind of blessing from parents to create a happy family for their children. The ritual confirms the beginning of their new, family life.

Decor
There's nothing more frustrating than creating amazing wedding decor and only seeing it in photos in passing, behind the guests. Beauty has every right (and even duty) to remain in the pictures!
Little tricks:
- Not all photographers are accustomed to paying attention to shooting decor. (Not all newlyweds actually spend money on wedding decorations.) Therefore, be sure to warn the photographer that you want to remove the decor, otherwise you may get an unpleasant surprise along with the finished photographs.
- Shooting decor requires special time - set aside it. The decor of the banquet hall must be removed before the appetizers are placed on the tables, otherwise all your beauties (especially small ones) will be lost against the background of the plates. Remove the decor of the outdoor ceremony before the gathering of guests begins. Ask the photographer how much time he will need to shoot, and include this time in the timing plan for the day.
- If you ordered designer wedding printing, be sure to arrange a photo shoot for it too! Invitations, save the date, beautiful envelopes will not get into the frame at all if you don’t take care of it. So prepare a complete set of printing in advance to give to the photographer on your wedding day.
End of the evening
Leave the wedding beautifully - your guests will remember this moment for a long time, and the celebration will be wonderful from beginning to end.
Little tricks:
- Come up with a “trick” to end the evening: abroad, as a rule, this is a “corridor” of sparklers for the newlyweds. And for you it could be leaving in a beautiful car. Or leaving on bicycles))) Imagine!
- A photographer's working time is usually limited. And "full day" actually means 12 hours. Make a plan for the day so that you will definitely have enough work time until the end of the wedding, and you will not have to pay for extra hours.
May your wedding be perfect, and the photos from it even better)))) And may you be happy!
