A beautiful bride named Alleanna and her dad, John Clark, took to the dance floor during the reception for the traditional father and daughter dance.

One that always brings family and friends to tears, except this wasn’t exactly what you would call traditional.

Weddings are a celebration of love.

And while tears are a given, we often forget that it should be a cause of joy and lots of laughs.

It’s a really big deal since a man has to win the approval of his partner’s parents.

Dating is one thing but wanting to spend the rest of your life with someone means receiving the blessing of the girl’s first male figure in her life.

Fathers are often underestimated but they are arguably the pillars of a good family.

He is the one who provides and protects for his family, and his daughter is his princess.

Good dads are more than willing to sacrifice anything and everything for their daughters, including their lives if needed.

Alleanna and John Clark deserve this moment.

It starts off like any other father and daughter dance, with a simple, melodic piano piece meant to bring in sentimental vibes.

Now it takes a lot for a middle-aged man to say yes when planning a fun dance.

Age is a major factor, so doing energetic moves for a few minutes is no walk in the park.

But John Clark is a good man and he did it for the love of his beaming daughter.

After a slow, sweet dance, the duo take their places and strut their stuff to “Boogie Wonderland”.

Just listen to their guests cheer and come to life!

Look at John Clark’s face as he dances. He’s really putting himself into it!

Alleanna is in the zone, having the time of her life. This is her night after all!

A kick and a spin later, and the duo face the other way in order to share the boogie.

They are so cute.

His bowtie and suspenders, for some reason, make him even more charming for this dance too.

Alleanna’s face is just so radiant with joy and love. She is still, and always will be, daddy’s girl.

Then the music changes to a popular beat, so John Clark proceeds to show everyone just how flexible he still is.

Limbo dance anyone?

“Let’s Get It Started” by The Black Eyed Peas takes over and the DJ calls on “Everybody” to “Rush the floor” as Alleanna and John Clark point at everyone.

And they do!
