Im gonna be puttin together a music playlist for my wedding reception in August, and I want to make sure I have a good variety that can potentially appeal to everybody there. Of course the Cupid Shuffle, Electric Slide and Casper Slide/Cha Cha Slide and Macarena will be part of it , but any suggestions for good songs to get people dancing would be appreciated

Just make sure you play music that white people can't dance to. Cause that never ends well when they try. :D

Just not Enya or Yanni...was at a reception for a wedding between a Christian and Pagan recently, and the Pagans insisted on such music, and then they just sat at their table and talked. After two hours, we Christians had had enough and took over the playlist with some Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, etc...but by then it was a little too late to save the reception.
