Re: Must Play songs at Reception

ok don't laugh, but here are a few I've thought of, I want to give our DJ a range of stuff so they have an idea of our taste:

Fired up by Funky Green Dogs (what a weird name!)

I'll fly with you by Gigi D'Agostino

Late in the evening- Paul Simon

Send me on my way- Rusted Root

American Girl- Tom Petty

Is this love (....'that I'm feeling'- not sure of the exact name of this one) by Bob Marley

anything by Sean Paul

some Beatles stuff- particularly- 'Saw her standing there'

Doo Wah Diddy- oldies song (this is what happened to be playing when FH proposed!)

My fh and have what we call our songs and we will play them
Ex. Shelter: Ray Lomantagne
Love and Devotion: Mishka etccc Not very popular but we like them
But you should also let the band know the songs you don't want. I told my band/dj to play the chicken dance. Heard it once you heard too many times. Good luck

I need so much help with mine! FH is afraid that I am going to tell the DJ to play all Billy Joel songs!!! I love Billy but his songs aren't really party songs. I actually took out my DJ list last night and ended up staring at the blank page for quite a while.

We are having a mixture of different types of music.

60's
70's
80's
90's
Today's

We have not having too much of one type or Era of music.

There are 5 songs that we did tell the DJ were a requirment.
