To My Beloved Dad: A Compilation of Songs to Express Gratitude on Your Wedding Day 🎶

A Song for My Beloved Father ♩

Dad, who has supported our family together with Mom.

I think everyone has different distances and relationships with their fathers, but he is a precious, significant presence that I hope will always be healthy and happy.

At weddings, the fathers of the bride and groom often have moments in the spotlight.

Walking down the aisle together with the bride or giving a speech at the end during the groom's father's address is common.

So this time, instead of focusing on the parents or just the mother,

I will introduce some perfect Japanese BGM that expresses gratitude to fathers and celebrates their presence, ideal for a wedding.

[Wedding BGM] Songs to Express Gratitude to Dad ① Hero / FUNKY MONKEY BABYS

"Hero" by FUNKY MONKEY BABYS is a classic song that many people think of when it comes to dads ♩

To fathers,

"Even though you looked busy with work, you were so cool."

"I loved watching you work!"

This is a song I would definitely recommend for brides who feel this way.

[Wedding BGM] Songs to Express Gratitude to Dad ② Like You / DREAMS COME TRUE

"Like You" by DREAMS COME TRUE carries the message of wanting to become a strong and kind person like you (dad).

Listening to it while thinking of your father brings a heartfelt feeling＊

The melody is also touching, so it seems perfect as the BGM during the bouquet presentation.

[Wedding BGM] Songs to Express Gratitude to Dad ③ 3090 ~ Song of Love ~ / LGMonkees

"3090 ~ Song of Love ~" by LGMonkees is an emotional song filled with memories of the past with dad.

"There are things I want to tell you."

"There is love that I must return to you."

I personally love the repeated phrases＊

Since it's from a male perspective, it's perfectly suited for scenes like the groom's letter.

"PAPA" by BENI expresses the straightforward feelings of thanks to dad, apologies, and everlasting love.

If the bride usually calls her dad "papa" and they have a good relationship, this song will undoubtedly make many fathers cry at the wedding.

"Michishirube" by Masaharu Fukuyama doesn't mention "father" directly, but can be interpreted as a love song about dads depending on the listener.

The opening phrase "I love that hand" is very memorable＊

It could provide a moving backdrop for profile movies or background videos before the bride's letter.

"Arigato Ju Ju" is a song created by Hitoto Yo for her deceased parents.

"It's not a lie, I love you, Papa."

"Because you both fell in love, I guess, this makes sense."

"Thank you a thousand times, thank you ten thousand times."

The unique title and lyrics offer a cute and quirky vibe＊

"Father" by Hiiragi features lyrics that resemble a letter written to dad.

"I'm sorry I couldn't keep the promise to marry you, dad."

This phrase makes it a perfect song for brides whose childhood dream was to marry their father.

"PaPa" by MAY'S is also a song from a daughter's perspective about her dad.
