Wedding Music

[Kristian]

Big news, I'm getting married this summer.

I'm trying to figure out a playlist for after dinner, for dancing.

I wanna include a lot of rock music, so please give me suggestions, what rock music would be suitable for the dance floor at a wedding?

I'm thinking it should be something the common man is familiar with, like Bon Jovi Living on a prayer for examble.

 

Tell me what ya think.

My wife picked EDWIN McCAIN'S- I COULD NOT ASK FOR MORE for our song.

 

She told me that ROCK 'EM, SOCK 'EM by the MENTORS was out of the question.

[Widda]

I refrain from giving romance/love advice. i have forgotten what a man looks like it has been so long.

[Kristian]

We've picked The Storm "To Have and to Hold" for our song.

I'm trying to put together a playlist that would be suitable for dancing, not neccesarily romantic songs, just rock songs to dance to. I don't wanna listen to pop music all night.

[Widda]

the only thing that comes to my mind that is middle of the road dancing music....Journey and Bad Co.

[Chris]

Unfortunately rock music isn't really appropriate if you want to dance. You should play some pop, maybe some mainstream, and dance music. I used to DJ weddings back in the day and rock music, no matter how popular just didn't go over well.

[sharatan]

sorry but i love my 2nd wife...definately for our song i had this...

 

[Geoff]

Ha, congrats mate. I think I did a similar thread a while ago when I got married and the results were this. Although I got no music in the actual ceremony (aside from a Bon Jovi song or two) on the wedding video I got a few songs like this:

 

'Forever' - KISS

'Shouldn't I be lying in your arms' - Fury

'When I look into your eyes' - Firehouse

'Right by your side' - 7th Heaven

 

I ended up with at least half a dozen, but I don't recall the others at this instant. Good luck mate!!

[Fat Freddy]

She told me that ROCK 'EM, SOCK 'EM by the MENTORS was out of the question.

 

Awww, ya big romantic lug, ya...

 

I fought like hell to have KISS' "Forever" as the "first dance" song at my wedding, but of course Bridezilla - er, I mean my lovely wife -- wanted nothin' to do with that, and of course since I wanted to have a good wedding night (if you catch my drift) I eventually gave up arguing and let her have her way, thus we ended up using some godawful country ballad by some Garth Brooks wanna-be motherf**ker in a black hat.

 

My wife did throw a few concessions my way as far as music during the reception, however, so KISS' "Strutter," GnR's "Sweet Child O'Mine" and the Ramones' "I Wanna Be Sedated" were heard at different points during the evening.

[cdjunky41]

I remember strickly, that I told the D.J., I did not want him to play BILLY IDOL -MONY MONY.

This Jerkoff goes and plays it. I wanted to rip his throat out with a butter knife.

I do remember walking to my apartment without a suit on. I was going on a cruise the next morning, so I left my tux over my friends house.

I've been in marital BLISS ( ) ever since.

[Widda]

awww so sweet.

When my wife and I got married the "Macarena" was the hip thing at the time. We told the DJ that if we heard that song during our reception, we would take him outside and break his legs. Fortunately for him he listened.

 

That poor DJ also had to put up with my brother and my new brother in law, both of whom were half in the bag, pestering him all night with requests for either death metal (my bro) or pornographic hip-hop songs (my brother in law). That guy earned his paycheck at our wedding.

[Kristian]

Thanx a lot. I'll se if I can squeeze in a few rock classix here and there during the evening.

Our first dance i definitely going to be The Storm's "To Have and to Hold".

[Glen]

My first dance was Journey - 'With Your Love'

 

awesome lyrics. spot on

A great song from the "Live" "Behind The Enemy Lines" Release..

 

It was only released in the U.K. I think...Great Song though..

[Jimbo]

Don't listen to all the whiners above, Kristian. Marriage is great. Play whatever music you two love and don't worry about what anyone else thinks. It's your day, so rock out!

[cdjunky41]

Kristian!

We mean you no harm. Us guys have to get together and vent every now & then. We consider this therapy.

Alchohol always helps as well

[Geoff]

Just out of curiosity, is your bride into this type of music too?

[Kristian]

Yeah, she's into the same style of rock as me.
