Editor’s Note:  Hey #BellaNaijaWeddings beauties, weddings are always full of special moments. First look, vow exchange, first dance and also father-daughter moment and also the mother-son dance. In as much as the day is about the couple, they get to share that day with those who matter to them like their parents. This special moment that the groom and his mom shares should be carefully thought about and also the songs that will be danced to. If you have been wondering what songs fit this moment, then we’ve got you. Boston-based DJ Prince (@princekalu_) will be sharing 10 songs that are perfect for the mother-son dance. Last time, he shared 10 perfect songs for the father-daughter dance. Today it is all about the mother-son dance, enjoy!

A mother’s love for her son is impeccable. It is one which she exudes with every opportunity given. One of her favourite space to exhibits such love and appreciation is at his wedding during the “Mother-Son” dance. While every mother is different, one thing they all share with their sons is a unique vibe; whether it be exuberant or un-bend, you are going to get a feel of that affection tied to their collective personality with the song they choose.
