We're meeting with our DJ tomorrow night, so I have to figure out some music suggestions!  I'm sure he'll pick good music, but I'd love to give him a list of stuff we know are fun for weddings. 

So, a poll:

1)  what is your favorite song to dance to at a wedding (as a guest)?

2)  what is your favorite slow dance song (as a guest)?

3)  what did you use for your reception entrance song?

4)  what was your first dance song?

Thanks for helping me brainstorm!

    your DJ should hopefully have suggestions / tips for you, but here are some thoughts:

    1)  what is your favorite song to dance to at a wedding (as a guest)?  I know a lot of brides are anti line dance, but to be honest, the most people made a beeline for the dance floor for the electric slide and the cha cha slide

    2)  what is your favorite slow dance song (as a guest)?  not sure I have one

    3)  what did you use for your reception entrance song?  getting jiggy with it

    4)  what was your first dance song?  everything - michael buble

    Who are you using as your DJ? I'm having a difficult time finding one I like, or I just don't know the best guys around.

    Anything fast-pop/dance music-Madonna, Katy Perry etc.

    2)  what is your favorite slow dance song (as a guest)?I'm not really a slow dance person, I had my DJ put very little of those songs in.

    3)  what did you use for your reception entrance song? Thunder struck-ACDC

    4)  what was your first dance song- We started with-when a man loves a woman-brian adams- then broke into-Do you love me-now that I can dance-we took lessons and danced to that song for about a minute or two then went back to Brian Adams song.

    This is really a great time for you to have fun and do what you want. If you like to be different go ahead and  have fun with the music!

    Best of Luck!

    I used Curtis Knight from Billerica. I had Curtis Knight and Anna. What a team! They are wonderful. My guests and we never sat down. They are fun and they listen to your needs. Check out his website. They meet with you to get to know you and I can highly recommend them to you. You will not be disappointed. 

    Best of Luck!
