Fathers are simply the best. The first man to ever give you his whole heart, the hero that inspires you, the one person that never fails to be there for you. This Father’s Day, we’re celebrating the beautiful relationship between fathers and daughters (and sons) worldwide with some of the sweetest wedding photographs that display this special bond.
Emotional First Looks

While first looks with your dad are becoming more popular and the obvious walk down the aisle can’t ever be missed, one moment that you might want to have captured is your parents’ reaction during the ceremony. The candid shots are guaranteed to be brimming with all the feels.

This is a special moment that always leaves you teary. This bride’s father wanted to dance with her despite losing his hearing. She asked him to select a song he knew by heart – something he could hear in his head, and they shared a special moment on the floor, dancing to Somewhere Over The Rainbow. Isn’t that the sweetest thing in the world? But you can also make it silly and fun. For many brides and grooms, their father is their best friend. And if your father-daughter dynamics is like that, try selecting an upbeat or non-traditional song that reflects your relationship. If you need help finding the perfect song for your dance with dad, check out these sweet tracks. Global entertainment experts have contributed their thoughts and advice on wedding music and have shared the ultimate wedding playlist.

This father-daughter duo decided to shake things up a little and take shots right before making their way down the aisle! Can it get more iconic than that? This is a smart way to get rid of those jitters and have fun, and we’re all for it! Just look at those radiant faces!

Your dad isn’t the only father figure anymore. Now that you’re married, you’ve got an extra set of parents to love! Whether your dad couldn’t be there at your wedding or you just want to have that special moment with your new in-law, letting your groom’s dad walk you down as this bride did is a sweet sentiment you can consider. We just love father-daughter relationships like this.
Honoring Step-Dads

These brides decided to have their step-dads walk them down the aisle, and it looks like it was meant to be! While a second father figure may have come into your life later and doesn’t share your blood, they often play an equally significant role in your life. And these happy faces show that the brides clearly feel like their step-fathers are more like their very own. If you’re lucky two have both fathers in your life, we say have them walk you down to your spouse together!

When a picture says more than a thousand words… We love these sweet clicks that perfectly communicate the love shared between a father and his girl.

These photos are just so precious! Celebrating all dads means even the ones tying the knot. Younger dads may have fathers of their own, but these photos just prove that their relationships with their own babies are just as beautiful. This groom and his wife had their daughter star as their flower girl, and it’s too cute for us to handle!

There is something so special about these photos of dads helping out their grooms before the big moment. There are plenty of pictures of brides getting ready, but we think getting a few shots in the groom’s suite can be just as beautiful. And these photos are proof of that.
With these photos, we wish all the dads a very Happy Father’s Day!
