Working with your DJ

When working with a DJ for your wedding reception, remember you hired a professional for a reason – let them feel out your crowd and keep the party going. While you might have the ultimate play list in
mind, it might not be ideal for keeping a crowd of all ages
entertained. Instead of dictating every song, give your DJ a list of
5-10 songs you really like in addition to your special songs (first
dance, bouquet toss, etc.). Also give them a do not play list
and include things like whether or not you want group dances (ie The
Chicken Dance or YMCA). Most DJs will have a questionnaire of some sort
to collect your requests.

Here are some classics to get you going:

Frank Sinatra, The Way You Look Tonight
ABBA, Dancing Queen
Michael Jackson, Thriller
Bryan Adams, Summer of ‘69
Etta James, At Last
Journey, Don’t Stop Believin’
James Taylor, How Sweet It Is (To be Loved by You)
