Reception music...

I am having a hard time with a couple songs for the reception. I am wondering what everyone is using for entrance songs. Is everyone using 3 songs- one for Bridal Party, one for Parents, and one for Bride and Groom? If you are what are you using?

My second song is the Anniversary Dance song. What is everyone using for that?

Thanks so much!

Re: Reception music...

We aren't doing bouquet toss or garter so we are doing an anniversary dance. It is when they have the married couples gather on the dance floor and they have the couples sit based on the amount of time they have been married (ie...1 hr, 1 year, 10 years. etc....) whichever couple has been married the longest stays on the dance floor and they play a song for them. For us it is my grandparents so I really want it to be special.

I am only using 1 because I have a small BP...Lucas Prata's 'And She Said'

When I was going to do 2 songs I was going to have BP and parents come in to 'Beautiful Day' by U2 or 'Don't Stop 'Till You Get Enough' by MJ.
