I would make sure she wasn't ofc........I really don't think she wants that spotlight tho.........& I don't know if my groom would want to share that moment with her too.....because they don't know the other that well...........

You keep reminding people that this thread is about "honoring his late mother". Frankly, I don't see how having the groom dance with his wife's mother is "honoring his late mother".

It's not......they aren't the same....it's honoring my mom & giving him someone to dance with because his mom can't........and then we honor his mom in a special way....like during a speech before the champagne toast. Other suggestions would be welcome too..........but I do really like that one........& he does too. His brother could give it before the best man's toast...........

He doesn't need to dance with anyone. I've been to weddings recently where the bride and groom dance and then the father and bride dance. And then everyone dances.
It's coming across to some of us as intentionally leaving out his step-mother - I can only imagine how it will come across to those in attendance.

It won't be leaving her out....because she will dance with his dad........but she didn't raise him or anything.... she doesn't want that spotlight. If she raised him....I'm ita how it wouldn't be right to not have her dance with my groom BUT...if they want to....that will be up to the 2 of them............
The bride's mom dancing with the groom is kinda traditional....that's not going to come across anyway but sweet IMO. I would really love to see them dance together while I dance with my dad....A N D he knows my mom better & would love to honor her too.
People in attendance will know him ofc.....& that his mom passed like 10 yrs ago. They might not even know that his dad is remarried tho....because that was recent......so it will come across perfectly fine IMO........

Thank you tho.......
It comes across as disingenuous to say his step mother didn't raise him so she shouldn't dance with him - when YOUR mother didn't raise him either.
You made your mind up long before you asked - just as you did with the New Years Eve wedding.
