Song List - What order?

I'm having trouble deciding which order to put songs in for our diy ipod reception. Any ideas on how you can incorporate some slow dancing without bringing everything down?

    My basic rule of thumb is that you never follow one slow song with another. Do a slow song, then something slightly more upbeat, and then something very upbeat. Rinse and repeat. It will probably be like this:

    UPBEAT SONG
    UPBEAT SONG
    SEMI-UPBEAT SONG
    SLOW SONG
    SEMI-UPBEAT SONG
    UPBEAT SONG
    UPBEAT SONG... etc.

    You can stack more upbeat songs together than just 2 at a time, that's just a suggestion. Slow songs, though, shouldn't be stacked at all unless they're short. Good luck, hope this helped.
