our wedding day music
The best advice we got from our wedding DJ was to make 80-90% of the dance floor music songs that everyone knows. If you want to keep the dance floor energetic and fun for everyone, save your tastemaker playlist for dinner and cocktail hour instead. If you’re looking for somewhere to start on dinner/cocktail hour music and dance floor music, here are our playlists! We got a ton of compliments and still throw on the cocktail hour one when we’re hanging around the house or entertaining.
