A worked example
Meet Michael, our example groom
Michael isn't real, but many grooms share his story. Below is the kind of detail families send us, and the song we crafted from it. Your song would be built from your own memories.
Michael
Getting married in June. Raised by Dad from eight, learned hair plait from YouTube, double-shift hero.
- Raised by his dad from age eight
- Learned to plait hair from a YouTube video
- Dad worked double shifts for school trips
- Never felt anything was missing
What Michael's family told us
I'm getting married in June and I want a song for my dad, to play at the reception before his speech. He raised me on his own from when I was eight. He learned to plait hair off a YouTube video, worked double shifts for my school trips, and never once made me feel like anything was missing. The song is my side of the aisle saying: you did it, Dad.
The sort of thing a groom might send us
Read the lyrics: You Did It, DadAcoustic · Warm male vocals · Father of the bride
Verse 1
Eight years old and the house went quiet,Just you and me against the world.You didn't know how to plait a fringe,So you learned it from a screen, hands shaking on my curls.You never once let it show,The nights you must have been afraid.You just got up and made the toast,And found a way to make it all okay.
Chorus
Michael, you did it, Dad,You did it on your own.Every double shift you worked,Was a love I always knew.So tonight before I walk out there,I just need to say it's true,Nothing was missing, nothing at all,Because I had you.
Verse 2
School trips paid for in tired mornings,Overtime you never let me see.You'd say it's fine, go on and pack your bag,Then work another shift so I could just be free.You learned the things a mother might have known,By torchlight, video, trial and hope.And every plait was a little crooked,But it held, Dad, it always held me close.
Chorus
Michael, you did it, Dad,You did it on your own.Every double shift you worked,Was a love I always knew.So tonight before I walk out there,I just need to say it's true,Nothing was missing, nothing at all,Because I had you.
Bridge
This June, the light is soft and gold,Like all the mornings that you gave.You built me steady, built me whole,Out of the hours that you saved.
Final Chorus
Michael, you did it, Dad,You did it on your own.Every quiet sacrifice,Was a love I always knew.So before you stand to give your speech,Let me say this one thing to you,Nothing was missing, nothing at all,Because I had you.
Outro
Whatever happens after tonight,Whatever roads still lie ahead,I'll carry this, I'll carry you,Dad, you did it, everything you said.
Michael's song was built from his dad's quiet heroics and the moment at the aisle. Every song is written from scratch for one person only.
