Music at Reception?!

I thought this would be a good thread to remind me of what good songs there are and whatnot. When you go to a wedding, what songs do you LOVE to hear? And which ones do you absolutely despise? I don't know if I should tell the DJ to not do the Macarena or Electric Slide under any circumstances.

This is a tough thing b/c everyone's tastes are different... Personally, if i heard electric slide or macarena I would leave the room!

Re: Music at Reception?!

These are our only must-have songs...

OUr Songs- Eternal Flame - The Bangles
Seal - Love's Divine
Metallica-Nothing Else Matters
Alicia Keyes-If I Ain't Got you

Other than that, I left it up to the band...

Yeah, I hate those cheesy songs. I think I'm going to tell him to not play any of those kind of group dance things like that.

I love Eternal Flame!

I was thinking songs too that get people up on dance floor.

No YMCA, chicken dance, macarana or any other songs that the DJ has to show people how to dance to them...

I also love to hear Sweet home Alabama for some reason LOL. I went to a wedding at the Harrison House in June and they sang that song and I think everyone in the room got up to dance to it...
