Parents see off their daughter to a new life and a new family
Thoughts can be confused by emotions and therefore it is necessary to prepare a text for congratulations in advance. On this day, newlyweds hear many congratulations from friends and relatives, but it is their parents’ words that they should remember most.
Beautiful congratulations from parents on their daughter’s wedding can be in poetry or prose, lyrical, touching, comic. You can compose the text yourself, or you can take a ready-made one and adjust it for the young couple.
How to congratulate your son on his wedding day?
Wedding congratulations to the mother of the groom are usually the saddest thing at a wedding, since she loses her previous connection with her child and is forced to give up the palm to his wife. You should take into account that if the speech contains excessive tearfulness, it can spoil the atmosphere of the holiday, so wedding congratulations should be moderately sentimental and describe only positive moments that convey your tender attitude towards your child.
The words of the parting speech should not only praise the groom, but also contain positive emotions directed towards the bride. You can talk about what an exciting day it was for you to meet your son’s future wife. A mother’s address to her son at a wedding should not be too callous, one should not use hackneyed clichés, it is important that the groom’s mother and future mother-in-law show creativity and congratulate the newlyweds with special tenderness.

A mother’s address to her son at a wedding must certainly be sincere and sensual. So the son and his future wife will be imbued with all the sensations that the mother experiences. Let's figure out how to properly congratulate your child on such an important day for him and not forget to mention his good choice of a future wife.
Congratulations from the father of the bride
There are a large number of poetic texts on different sites, but it is best to pay attention to literary sources. Both classics and modern poets are capable of composing beautiful congratulatory poems.
And if you want your wishes to be unique, you need to write them yourself and speak in your own words.
On a note. Remember that the main thing is not the rhyme and the poetic syllable, but the emotions that the words express. Congratulations in prose are also beautiful and heartfelt.
- “Dear daughter. I am marrying you to a real strong man. I am sure that he will become your support and support. Next to him you will be under reliable protection and your life will be happy. And that means we will be happy too.”
- “Dear daughter! Today you are the most beautiful bride. And tomorrow you will become the most beautiful wife. Your chosen one is very lucky, and I want to be convinced of this for many years to come. I want to see happiness in your eyes every day. After all, a happy wife means a happy family. Love, respect and prosperity to you."
- “My dear daughter! For your husband you are a charming woman, but for me you remain a cute little girl. I see with what eyes he looks at you and I am proud that you are my daughter. I wish him to be your stone wall and strong support. Patience, love and happiness to you."
Staging a fun dance for guests
Guests and friends, in addition to the main gift in the form of money or household appliances, also present a so-called creative gift. Most often this is a dance. It has a lot of advantages. After all, if song and vocal skills cannot be learned in a short time, then you can always rehearse a couple of simple movements.
If you decide to perform a dance at the wedding of friends or relatives, then you should definitely be well prepared for such an action. In fact, there is nothing complicated in staging a dance number. All you need is your desire.
- Watch videos from the Internet - fortunately, there are now a large number of videos online that show guests dancing at wedding events. These can be bright, original numbers, or modest ones. Choose at least what you like. You don't have to use someone's number completely. You can take from there several important ideas or the idea itself.
- Mood - it is important to be able to reflect in your production the mood that you originally intended to convey. It can be either romantic, sentimental, touching, or energetic and playful. It is worth starting from the newlyweds themselves. If the couple is a little sentimental and calm, then it is better for them to choose a romantic song that will immerse them in pleasant memories.
- Time – be sure to consider how much time you will have to spend choreographing the dance. If you need additional participants, then you should consult with them regarding how much time they are willing to devote to this number. Perhaps you will have a lot of free minutes, then you can make a more serious and complex number. If you do not have enough time, you should choose something simpler both in terms of movement and in terms of design.
- Style of the wedding ceremony - try to find out in advance from the bride or groom in what style their celebration will take place. If this is a rustic wedding, then it will be completely ridiculous to perform Russian folk dances. Your number should be in harmony with the overall concept of the entire celebration.
Congratulations from mom
Mom is the most important person for every girl. This remains the same before and after the wedding. The main parting word that sounds at a wedding is from mother to daughter.
It’s always easier to express overwhelming feelings in your own words in prose or poetry:
- "My daughter! When you were little, you really loved reading fairy tales. Each of them had the same ending - a wedding. But remember that life is not a fairy tale, and the wedding is the end. This is all just the beginning. The beginning of a new life, great love, family. Everything should work out for you if you surround each other with care. Try to avoid insults and disappointments. Daughter, be sweet, patient, respect your husband. Your happiness depends on the two of you."
- “Beloved daughter! Today is a wonderful day, and you are a beautiful princess. A wedding is the beginning of a new life story. Happy wedding! I want your life to be happy, filled with joyful events. You two have a long journey ahead, the birth of children, a family hearth. Be wise, reasonable and everything will work out for you.”
- “My beloved girl! Today you have become the wife of a wonderful young man. May the flame of your home never go out and warm your husband and your future children with warmth. Let this warmth be enough for us, parents. May the storms of life and the winds of separation not extinguish it. We love you very much!"
Mass dance rules
The more friends perform the number, the more enjoyable it will be for the young people. However, in order for the dance number to be as bright as possible, certain rules must be followed.
- Be sure to organize a rehearsal for all participants in the performance. It shouldn't be 1 or 2 meetings. For the first time, tell everyone what you would like to perform and what it will look like at the celebration. Participants must be well aware of how they look from the outside. At the second and subsequent meetings, you can already learn simple dance movements.
- Each participant must have a separate role. It is much more interesting to watch a dance number in which each person will perform a specific task. Such a production can turn out to be as vivid and memorable as possible.
- Consider in advance whether there will be enough space in the chosen hall to perform the dance. Everyone needs to be positioned so that they can be seen and so that everyone can move.
Wedding wishes to the newlyweds from their daughter's parents
Parents can say wishes individually and together, read poetry and speak in their own words, and can even prepare a congratulation song.
- “Today my soul is happy and sad at the same time. We have been preparing wishes for a long time and choosing words that will guide you, daughter, and support you. May your family be strong and strong, may sorrows pass by. Remember that love and respect are most important. And our love will always be with you! Happy wedding!"
- “On this day we are incredibly happy! Both us and you are filled with love! I would like you to remember this day and the feelings that you have today. Put the wedding photo in a prominent place, and when things get bad, look at it, remember all these feelings, how in love you are, what tenderness covers you. Smile, kiss, hug! You are each other's halves. Happy Holidays of Love!”
- “Daughter! As a child, you dreamed a lot about a beautiful dress, a handsome prince and a luxurious ball. Today this dream has come true. Now you need to try to make the children's fairy tale continue in reality, to be light, airy and gentle. In family life, everything is possible, bad things cannot be avoided, along with happiness and joy, bitterness and resentment await you. But remember, as long as you are one whole, you are not afraid of all this. Feel each other, take care. Love to you and beautiful children!”
What should the dance be like?
Modern weddings today have abandoned all sorts of rules. And this can only mean one thing - it is permissible to do everything that fits within the bounds of decency. If previously it was inappropriate for friends to perform a dance number, now it is a completely worthy alternative to a gift.
The dance itself can have different directions. At the same time, it will vary depending on what mood you want to convey.
However, there are certain requirements for the dance of friends:
- Appropriate – It’s worth thinking through a few times when you start performing. This must be done at the right time. Let the presenter announce that now all those present and the newlyweds will see the gift number. You can add a few personal and warm words to a simple ad.
- Confident - if you have already gone out and decided to dance, then you need to do it as confidently and accurately as possible. Don't be afraid to make mistakes. The whole room will be looking at you, but that doesn't mean you should shake. The more confident you are in performing the dance, the more everyone will like it.
Motor, off! What to do for a video gift for the bride and groom
So, the instruction is over, now the most difficult and enjoyable part is the creative part.
It might even turn out to be a music video!

- Flash mob. In the video in this article you will see how touching it is when many people and cars form figures and words especially for the bride, accompanied by the groom’s voice-over.
Recording a show gift
- Your love story. Another popular gift at weddings is a video sequence of joint photos accompanied by appropriate music, telling a love story. Let's refresh this matter - can you trust professionals to make a cartoon or animated film about you?

Or walk yourself through the iconic places of your relationship and, showing the camera a photo, tell the chronicle of your love (see Gift from the groom to the bride at a wedding: choosing the best surprise for the chosen one)?
- Serenade. A song or poem recorded in a professional recording studio – isn’t that wonderful? You can use your entire creations, or put your voice on a suitable “minus” or sing a song or recite the work of your favorite artist or poet.
- Social network. If you decide to focus on a video sequence from a photo, then why not format this matter in the form of a news feed from the popular Instagram? Add comments, likes, signatures and friends-subscribers.
Maybe you'll sing?
- A film within a film. The cut looks wonderful, where the heroes of various films say something that characterizes your love.
- Surprise, surprise. How do you like this option - to hint in a video about the grand surprise that you are going to give her after the screening of the film?
Advice! Remember the “golden mean” - the video should not be too long or too short. Ideally – 3-5 minutes.
