EPIC Daddy-Daughter dance mashup! We surprised everyone! (A father's gift to his daughter)

My daughter has been dancing since she was two when we enrolled her in a dance studio. After several years there, many more years in show choir, and even a few more years on a dance team in college, she thought her dancing days were over. But on a whim, I decided to ask her if she would like to dance one more time, with me, for a Daddy-Daughter Mashup, and she said yes! (What was I thinking?! I can't dance!) We picked all the music together, I mixed it, she choreographed it (making the dance easy enough for me to do) and we pulled off the biggest surprise ever! No one knew - not even my wife!
Filmed last year by my 15-year-old son on my cellphone, I never thought I would do anything with this footage until recently, and decided to piece it all together for my daughter and son-in-law in time for their first anniversary. Happy Anniversary Peyton and Natalie!
For you Dad's out there, get out there and do something epic with your daughter, and never pass up an opportunity to make lasting memories - even it's doing something you're horrible at! (like dancing!)
Enjoy!

DO NOT skip directly to the dance. The heartwarming sentiment and backstory to this father-daughter wedding dance is as important as the dance itself. You sir are an amazing human and an incredible father. We should all be as lucky as your daughter, son and son-in-law to have such a wonderful father in our lives. Not all of us do.

[@SpyderGarage]

Thank you, Angela, appreciate that very much. Yes, the backstory is very meaningful to our relationship and to how significant this dance was. But I also realize the attention span of the average viewer is not what it used to be so I gave them options. 😏

You gained a son. Yes you have to let her be an adult married woman but you never really lose a son or daughter unless they pass away.

@@SpyderGarage Loved it Watched every minute of it Watched every minute of it The story even made me tear up a little bit

[@the_Real_Grammy_of_6]

I bet she would tell you that you could never embarrass her. I’m wiping tears because I am always grateful for a father to love his child this much. You Sir, are a hero

[@linnyroro3177]

This is so true, I wished every single day of my life up until the day my dad died in January 2021, that he would love me unconditionally like this, but instead it was always what I could give him or do for him in order for him to even fake semi caring. In the last 6 months of his life, I heard “I love you” more times than I ever did in the prior 41 years of my life. The sad part is I was the person he treated the absolute worst in the world but in the last 2-3 years of his life, I was the only person that did anything for him, even against my husband, kids and mom begging me not to because of how mean he was to me, but like I told my mom, she raised me better than that. I’m not allowed to drive due to having seizures, but once a week I would have my husband drive me over 2 hours to his house to simply give him a damn injection that he claimed he couldn’t give himself even though he was a nurse. His excuse was I was in nursing school but quit when I had my son, who had medical issues and my husband was in Iraq and I wasn’t the type of mom to leave my newborn child in the hospital alone seeing as he wasn’t in the NICU, so I slept there in a chair many many night and I just never went back and finished nursing school because by the time my husband was set to come home and my son was stable, hurricane Katrina wiped out everything we owned and before I knew it I was pregnant for #2. I still keep saying I am going to go back and finish just so I can prove to my dad that I am not the failure he thought it was and that I finally got my RN, because he took me putting my son’s health over my education as me being a failure. One thing I can say, that old theory of women marry men just like their fathers is completely bullshit, my husband is a complete 180 of what my father was to me and our 3 boys are the #1 priority in both our lives. Our oldest is adopted and is currently away with the army and so many people told my husband you can never love a child that is adopted as much as you can love your biological children and that is just not true at all, he was 17 when we adopted him and it’s like he has been with our family since day 1. We never told my dad we were adopting him because we knew we would get all kinds of racist remarks as our son is Chinese and seeing as the comments we get from strangers is mind blowing, I just know how my father was and I just never wanted to subject my son to that because we love him and it wouldn’t be fair, as it is my other 2 sons and my nephew absolutely hated him by the time he died because of how abusive they saw him be to me even once I was an adult and then the things he did to them behind mine and my sister’s back.

As a father of two teen daughters I've told them both since they were little when/if they get married I would do a choreographed dance with them for our dance so I watch these types of videos a lot to get an idea what I've agreed to.

Was very heartwarming and beautiful and I commend you sir for being an awesome father. Congratulations to the bride and groom!

I truly hope that she appreciates just how amazing her daddy is. Not just for learning the dance but for being there for throughout her life doing special things along the way just to make her happy. I also truly hopes she treasures not only that dance but all the wonderful times you both have shared. Trust me moments like this are more valuable then gold when all you have left to hold to are memories. Unfortunately I wasn't able to experience that moment with my dad. He will never walk me down the aisle or share the father/daughter dance with me. He died ten years ago, but he's still my daddy & I'm still his baby girl. Thank you for sharing.
