Picking Your Soundtrack

Your wedding day is one of the most special days of your lives, as the bride and groom. It is a day filled with unforgettable memories that you will cherish forever, and music will play a huge part in setting the tone.

Your first dance together as a married couple will be a moment that you will always remember, and the songs you choose for the dances with your respective parents will be just as meaningful. It is important that these songs come from the heart and reflect your unique relationship with each other and with your families.

While your DJ can offer suggestions for the first dances, their role becomes even more important when it comes to the cake cutting, bouquet and garter toss, dinner, and party music. Every wedding is different, and your personal preferences as a couple, as well as those of your guests, should guide your music choices.

We recommend sitting down with your DJ to discuss your song selections. A skilled and experienced DJ can help ensure that the music will appeal to a mixed audience and keep everyone on the dance floor. While you want to choose music that you and your friends will enjoy, remember to consider your guests and choose songs that will appeal to all ages.

It may be tempting to create a playlist filled with your favorite club jams, but keep in mind that this could alienate some of your guests and prevent them from enjoying the festivities. Some of the classic wedding songs, such as the Y.M.C.A. or the Cha Cha Slide, may not be your personal favorites, but they can get certain guests out on the dance floor and add to the overall energy of the event.

Remember that your wedding day is a celebration of not only your marriage, but also the people who have touched your lives. By choosing a soundtrack that appeals to everyone, you can create memories that will last a lifetime. Your DJ can offer alternatives to overplayed tunes that are just as good and will keep your guests of all ages dancing all night long.
