Do you have to do the father daughter dance right after first dance?

It is not necessary to do the father-daughter dance immediately after the first dance. Many wedding receptions have a designated spot for the father-daughter dance in the dance order, and it can be scheduled at any point during the reception. Some couples choose to do the father-daughter dance before the first dance, while others prefer to do it later in the evening. Ultimately, the best time to do the father-daughter dance is when it feels natural and comfortable for both the father and the daughter.
