DJ's Top 5 Wedding Songs

[dander337]

1) Sly and The Family Stone - Family Affair

2) R. Kelly - Step In The Name of Love

3) Marvin Gaye - Got To Give It Up

4) Sade - By Your Side

5) Etta James - At Last

Why all the slow, old school jams? Because you have to cater mostly to the older wedding guests, and get them to dance and stay. Once the older folks leave, then by all means, play the 90 bpm and above set.

Hey great idea on the wedding song list.

I wished I had this when I first started.

Here are my top 5 songs that are currently not on your list...

1. Mavericks - All You Ever Do Is Bring Me Down

2. Shania Twain - Man, I Feel Like A Woman

3. Queen - Crazy Little Thing Called Love

4. Bob Sinclair - Rock This Party (Everybody Dance Now)

5. Bill Medley and Jennifer Warren - I Had The Time Of My Life (last song)

[Johnson0426]

Great video. Popularity of songs often develop regionally, whether it's an "X" mile wide area here in the US or nationally. I would imagine the same is true for all nations. I find that the following songs work in the Philadelphia tri-state area w/o fail:

1. Yeah - Usher

2. Gettin' Jiggy Wit It - Will Smith

3. Run Around Sue - Dion & The Belmonts

4. Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough - Michael Jackson

5. You Shook Me All Night Long - AC/DC

[djearthstu]

1..greece megamix..

2...jive bunny megamix....

3... village people y.m.c.a

[thedjbusiness]

[ScottishDeeJay]

Not sure if this is a Top 5, but these ones always work (for me anyway!).

Stevie Wonder - Signed Sealed Delivered

Deeelite - Groove Is In The Heart

Journey - Don't Stop Believin'

Otis Day & The Nights - Shout

Justin Timberlake - -Sexyback

[thedjbusiness]

Hiya, thanks for your input. Great choice of tracks. Ill add them to the list and let you know once the list is up.

Thanks for your support mate.

[gavbag1234]

I'm agreeing with the top 5's.

I will add the overlooked one though.

KC and the sunshine band-Give it up.

first song after dinner always gets a few on the floor.

I'm not sure there's a real list of songs. After your first song you begin to gauge reactions. If they liked give it up you play some micheal jackson, billy ocean etc.

If not. Start looking at age groups and start again. Try some Abba, Old rock 'n roll like elvis.

Weddings are hard because they're diverse. Good luck

[thedjbusiness]

Brilliant advice. Thanks for your help.
