Music plays a huge part in your wedding day.
From the ceremony to the evening reception – every wedding you’ve ever been to has had a soundtrack of its own and your should be on different.
The choices made set the tone for the whole wedding day and if the couple get it right, the night ends with a packed dancefloor of guests celebrating together.
But how do you get it right? Well you work closely with your DJ or live band to select songs that are current and contemporary.
Take time over these choices, selecting tunes that topped the hits in the past year, and allow your DJ the freedom to read the crowd and choose songs appropriate for the room.
Of course there are certain songs that mean a lot to you and your other half that you should include in the day. But we’ve pulled together a list of the top 20 songs that will keep your friends and family dancing into the small hours.
