Can you guys help me make a list of songs that I can request they play at my brother's wedding. My mind is hitting a blank. All I can think of is: Bizarre Love Triangle (New Order) Paradise by the Dashboard Lights (Meatloaf) Brown Eyed Girl (?) December 1963 (Frankie Valle) Brand New Lover (Dead or Alive?) Any and all suggestions of your favorites are greatly appreciated!

Julie, is he having a dj? I'm just wondering how many songs you think you need to request. Wouldn't they have a set of songs?

Julie!! Are you kidding? Brown Eyed Girl = Van Morrison. But if you wanna play Van at a wedding, you should ask for Moondance instead. Unless the bride has brown eyes, lol. Anniversary Song by the Cowboy Junkies would be another great one. That one, it's all in the lyrics. Mmmmm.

Yes, they are having a DJ. I am sure they would do fine without any extra input, but this is will be one of the last weddings in the family for a while and I want to make sure I don't pass up any good dance songs. LOL Half! I thought about that. But they are such great dance songs!

Some Jimmy Buffett for a laugh. You can always get people singing to Jimmy. Margaritaville, Fins and Volcano are my suggestions. People find a way to dance to Jimmy and you always have quite a few Parrotheads in the crowd. AND.. A conga line gets even the non-dancing people ont the floor. (I Heard it Through the Grapevine) AND ..Line dancing!! Electric Slide and others will get people who have partners who don't dance on floor.

Motown 60/70's have great songs by Diana Ross and the Supremes,Temptations,Jackson 5 and Michael too had some great music to dance to.I would avoid I Will Survive -although a great dance song ,My Guy,Up On the Roof,Dancing in the Streets by Martha Reeves. I got a friend for her birthday a 3 cd pack with hits of the 60's/70's /80's -they may want a 90's one too .Just some ideas.

Besides the ones listed above, what about some good songs for wedding/ceremony. More romantic songs, rather than party songs. oldies or newer song ideas are great.

Depends on the age of the group. Rock Lobster by the B52s! great goofy dance tune 'I'm Gonna walk 500 Miles' by that scottish group the Proclaimers. and if by chance you dont know what I'm talking about....here's a youtube. Great words for a wedding song!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQfqSWe8eVE

When that song came on We all did the 'Virginia reel' It was so much fun. It has the perfect beat for that dance.
