But there comes a time in every father’s life when he has to marry his daughter off. That means walking her down the aisle, participating in all the wedding magic and sharing that special wedding dance. Though it goes without saying, every daddy-daughter dance is special in its own way.

But Ashley and David, a daughter and father from Houston, Texas, went the extra mile to prove the special bond only dads and daughters have.
