DJ Stress!

I was just looking at my DJs online planning, which is great. However, it really, really stressed me out! So many songs to chose! YIKES!!

What are some of the songs you guys are choosing?

The only item I will not compromise on...my bouquet of all purple tulips wrapped in a swatch from my Mom's wedding dress.

    g - I love Michael Franti's "Say Hey" for a bride/groom entrance!  Such a fun beat!

    We've been thinking either Ingrid Miachelson's "The Way I am" and Ben E King's "Stand By Me" for our first dance songs.

    Some combination of Then by Brad Paisley, Momma's Song by Carrie Underwood, Alright by Darius Rucker, the Penn State Fight Song/Lion roar thing, Pitt Alma Mater, Don't Stop Believing by Journey, Kanye, I Would Do Anything for Love (sorority thing, don't ask) and a partridge in a pear tree.

    I can tell you what will not be there: organized dancing, Etta James "At Last", YMCA, the Chicken Dance, Macarena, and Baby Got Back (I'm sure FI will fight me on this one),

    db, I'm sure I'm going lose the Battle of Sir Mix A Lot and the Battle of the Electric Slide. I'll just conveniently be peeing at that time during the reception.

    It will so be in my DJ contract that partial payment is withheld to ensure there is no Electric Slide, Chicken Dance, or Macarena played.  I hate those with a passion - not for them being overplayed at weddings - but just because hearing them ever since I first heard them makes me want to vomit.  Money mouth

    I was actually just looking at my DJ contract last night and trying to figure out what I want played.  What a daunting task!!  I'm going to just try to find a list somewhere online (I think my DJ has one), print it out and start highlighting.

    Two songs that will not be played at my wedding - The Cupid Shuffle and the Cha Cha Slide.  HATE THOSE SONGS!!
