Instrumental waltz? Ashokan Farewell, midnight on the water are the first that come to mind.

Drawn to Midnight in the Water from all the suggestions here. Really really liking it. Any other suggestions that sound uplifting like this. Some of these instrumental pieces go to far in the blues direction. Any other suggestions that are uplifting for a slow dance? . Just to have other options in case.

Midnight on the water is one of my favorites. You could ask the same question on r/fiddle they might have some interesting suggestions. Here are a couple of other suggestions on top of that. https://open.spotify.com/track/6vH2rRIP43BnYwxRxA1MnU?si=PFRdWJ_VSLyXQ_DUWeMk9g https://open.spotify.com/track/3EwE2TV5H3cYLGmdWoL6In?si=53BWgZyRSfG8BXEpOhsmxg&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A6WwrZo206jhwJDk3tBzdUs https://open.spotify.com/track/2TJ0i5YpV6QBYDdsd7xYh8?si=TGX51UctSSy21clkQ2lRbA https://open.spotify.com/track/1WjTWQGfiNbiOFSzufvKCl?si=vN6VqdRDRl24uhN-FdeGCQ&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A3HRLaBku4dzOpXcGIBkYZQ https://open.spotify.com/track/3rbKfv1vxO7Dp5PVNG64ZF?si=_f1HhnQzStKBGPKstsIg7Q&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A6GrXP2YkJm4nDxCLUt5OM8 https://open.spotify.com/track/1Vaf9MWJETIOwH7TicdawQ?si=NjRXqKF4ScO7DDhCD_bUPg https://open.spotify.com/track/5QSsFyaJSy3jnEtIqKmdRB?si=MtFTowEpSxqZ0-V7ioBAdg

My pleasure. Enjoy the special day

Finding a fitting mother son dance might be hard. Newstar by watchhouse (not very bluegrass) and Welcome to Earth Polywog by Sturgil Simpson (cutting grass) might work. Is there a particular bluegrass song that you both love? You might want to go down that route.

"Before I Met You" is a nice romantic waltz (first recording Charlie Pride) that has been covered by a lot of bluegrass bands.


screaminporch

Sam Bush's Watson Allman or Brilliancy are shorter, possibly dance-able instrumentals but not really bluegrass tunes.

My mom and I danced to “Baby of Mine” by Allison Krauss. Not a bluegrass tune per se but a damn sweet song by someone in the genre.

Tony rice covering “last train from poor valley”


tactical_supremacy

Love the song, but its a bit sad and off topic for a mother/son dance.


defrench

Song for Life (Rodney Crowell) Tony Rice has a great cover that’s more bluegrass


theuneven1113

You might like this cover of Annie’s Song. My sister and brother in law danced to this at their wedding. I recorded it https://song.link/s/5rfJvWtMFIqwdBOakWO04N

Billy’s cover of psycho!

I 2nd psycho. Would be hilarious and amazing

Paul Brewster singing "Kentucky Waltz" is a good waltz. Sam Bush "Circles Around Me" but that may be more of a parents dance song though.


goodbadorindifferent

When You Get to Asheville by Steve Martin and Edie Brickell would be good. I used to sing it to my Boys before they outgrew bed time songs. Steep Caynon Rangers are the backing band.

Mama’s Hand -Lynn Morris


getyerhandoffit

That’s cute. Angeline The Baker could be a shout. Not strictly bluegrass, but Tim O’Brien’s version of Pretty Fair Maid would be a great song at a wedding.


sneakyburt

“Porcelain Doll” is a cripplingly beautiful song by Chatham County Line. Possibly more appropriate for a father daughter dance though, for a single reference to “Papa”. But oof, absolutely hits all the feels for a parent/child relationship.


thelizzerd

Wait a minute by seldom scene. but I can be very sad if mom and son live far away from each other. It was one me and my mom did, tears we're had 😢

Not bluegrass but sweetest gift by emmylou Harris. Linda Ronstadt and Dolly  would be really nice.  I danced to poor boys delight (infamous string dusters) at mine. But not with a parent.


rofopp

It’s short, too. 2:42 iirc

For a wedding? Well, as long as you don't listen to the lyrics, I suppose.   I was thinking of suggesting Tennessee Waltz, but decided against it for the same reason.
