Father/Daughter Dances


In honor of Father’s Day, we wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU to all the wonderful dads out there who have been there for their children through thick and thin… holding you when you’re hurt, tossing a ball around with you on a warm sunny day, cooking burgers for you on the grill and always there for some comedic relief when needed!! 
The “Father/Daughter Dance” is often a long-anticipated four minutes that your father has been dreaming of/dreading since you were born…. The combination of joy and sadness is sometimes overwhelming for both of you!  But choosing the perfect song can make those few moments be the most memorable! 
Here are a few of our favorite (classic!) song choices that will never get old!

“Because You Loved Me” by Celine Dion (get your tissues ready!)
“She’s Got a Way” by Billy Joel (love it!)
“A Wink and a Smile” by Harry Connick, Jr.
“Daddy’s Little Girl” by Al Martino (who doesn’t love this song??)
“Have I Told You Lately That I Love You” by Rod Stewart
“Daughters” by John Mayer (for the more modern bride)
“I Loved Her First” by Heartland
“If I Could” by Ray Charles
“In My Life” by The Beatles
“Isn’t She Lovely” by Stevie Wonder (perfect!)
“Just The Way You Are” by Billy Joel
“My Girl” by The Temptations (more upbeat and fun!!)
“Over The Rainbow” by IZ (one of my favorite songs ever)
“Stand By Me” by Ben E. King (classic, Motown and FUN!)
“The Way You Look Tonight”  by Frank Sinatra (I don’t think it gets any better than Frank!)
“Time In A Bottle” by Jim Croce
“Unforgettable” by Nat King Cole and Natalie Cole
“What a Wonderful World” by Louis Armstrong
“Wind Beneath My Wings” by Bette Midler (okay, a bit cliché, but totally appropriate!)
“My Little Girl” by Tim McGraw (for those country fans out there!)

Happy Father’s Day!!!

FEATURE: Remember This Day Sponsoring Light The Night-Delaware!!!!

It is with GREAT pride and excitement that Remember This Day announces that we are volunteering our time, effort and expertise in helping to plan this AMAZING non-profit event for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society!!!!  We are SOOO excited to share this day with you....

On Friday, October 14th the Delaware Chapter of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) will host its annual nationwide Light The Night Walk at Frawley Stadium in Wilmington. The Delaware Chapter goal for 2011 is to draw over 2,000 participants and raise over $325,000! With support like  yours, we know our event will be a magical one!

Light The Night Walk events are evenings filled with inspiration. During this leisurely walk, walkers carry illuminated balloons - white for survivors, red for supporters and gold in memory of loved ones lost to cancer - thousands of walkers form a community of caring, bringing light to the dark world of cancer. Thousands of participants raise funds for lifesaving research and patient services and, on these special nights in Delaware, they carry illuminated balloons to show the support of a caring community.

LLS is a nonprofit organization that relies on the generosity of individual and corporate contributions to advance its mission. 


I hope you will be able to join and support us this year in the fight against blood cancers! Being that you are all such GREAT supporters of Remember This Day, we know you will be a wonderful asset to our Light The Night Walk event in Wilmington.  Please contact me at carina@rememberthisdayevents.com or 302-584-7674 with any questions or ideas.  I look forward to hearing from you soon!
