Cocktail Hour Playlist

Does anyone have a good playlist of songs to use for cocktail hour? We're just going to hook up our ipod for cocktail hour and don't know what songs to use.

Thanks!

Re: Cocktail Hour Playlist

  • Vitamin String Quartet is great for cocktail hour, IMO- they have tonnnsss of traditional and contemporary songs all turned into classical type music. Otherwise, i would say stick with easy listening type songs. sorry I don't have any specific songs!
  • I looked them up online and thats a great idea for cocktail hour! Thank you!

  • I've never heard of this vitamin string quartet! 

    How did you girls get their music? Is it available free somewhere?
  • I Wanted I'll be by Edwin McCain but in a classical way to walk down the aisle too. I googled it and found out about them. You can listen to the samples on iTunes or maybe look on YouTube. Otherwise im not sure

  • I am a music nerd and being somewhat of a freak about it for my wedding day!! I think it all depends on what kind of music you like and/or want.  There is a great dj out of New Jersey who I wanted but wasn't available for my date but he has a great blog with some wonderful ideas.

    I'm also a big fan of doing Frank Sinatra and older music during the cocktail hour that is  low key.
