Re: i started this on brides helping brides: DO NOT PLAY SONGS

I haven't come up with any specific songs, but I don't want any songs with any curses and no rapping (I'm playing the beats but not the actual rapping) in respect of the older ones that are going to be there, a lot of them are christians and don't like to hear rapping.... don't ask me

Re: i started this on brides helping brides: DO NOT PLAY SONGS

I wouldn't mind Last Dance but most likely the last song would be 'I Had The Time Of My Life' from Dirty Dancing sans the whole Johnny-Baby dance. LOL

Another song would be Beautiful People, but that's because that would freak out the more conservative members of my family.

I don't mind Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, or Shania Twain. However, lay off the Leann Rimes-Trisha Yearwood-Garth Brooks-Lonestar songs.

Re: i started this on brides helping brides: DO NOT PLAY SONGS

Oh I forgot Ricky Martin songs (post-Menudo). I might play one Menudo song for shizzles and giggles.

Seriously, novelty songs should be banned at any party.

This is where my age shows....I love the Electric slide but can definitely live without the Macarena and the cha cha slide etc.. I have to play the chicken dance....we have 4 year old twin cousins that have been practicing since before our engagement party in June. I love to see the kids have fun so I'm okay with it.

My FH agrees with all of you, he HATES Celine Dion, while I like a few of her songs.
