A wedding’s father-daughter dance is a cherished tradition, but one family decided to take theirs up a notch with a hilarious and energetic dance mashup that has taken the internet by storm. The video has racked up over 200,000 views in just a week!
According to ABC News, Jordan Lawson and his daughter, Emma Lawson, left their 400 wedding guests in Utah completely astonished by turning the classic daddy-daughter dance into a lively spectacle. They kicked off the routine with a slow dance to the sentimental “Butterfly Kisses” before bursting into a four-minute choreographed medley featuring hits like “U Can’t Touch This” and “Bye Bye Bye.”
The duo practiced for just a week leading up to the big day, but with Emma being a trained dancer who met her now-husband in the International Folk Dance Ensemble at Brigham Young University, it’s no wonder they pulled it off so flawlessly. Jordan had been dreaming of this moment for years, and Emma was more than happy to make it happen. “As the oldest and only girl, this was my dad’s only shot at something like this,” Emma told ABC News. “After years of talking about it, we finally made it a reality!”
A round of applause for them for injecting some fun into what is usually a sentimental moment at weddings. While most father-daughter dances lean towards heartfelt chats and tearful moments, this duo showed how to keep things lively.
When my wife and her dad had their dance, they opted for the classic route, slow dancing to “I Loved Her First,” which, while touching, felt a bit like an emotional game of chicken. I wasn’t too upset when it was over, to say the least. But watching Emma and Jordan? Now that’s a performance I could enjoy for hours! Their routine was undoubtedly the highlight of the reception.
Emma, however, insists that the best part of her wedding day was still marrying her best friend.
