But I gave you a list of 100 songs why didn't anyone dance?

1st Djs does over 450 weddings every year here are some things we can definitely do

- We can make 200 people dance at a totally dry wedding where only ice tea and water are served, and we can keep the dancefloor going all night.

- We can make 200 people dance all night without ever hearing YMCA, Chicken Dance, Cha-Cha-Slide, Electric Slide and yes even the Cupid shuffle. Take away all the "cheesy " wedding songs and we can do it.

- We struggle though making them dance to a bunch of down tempo songs by The Muse, Neutral Milk Hotel and TV On The Radio.

Don't get me wrong if you went on my ipod right now you'd see everything TV On the Radio has ever done, I grew up with one of the guys, I even had the last Muse album and everything by Neutal Milk, but would I play them during "dancing time" at a wedding?

Chances are you're going to have a core group of friends that like the same artists as you but besides that youre going to actually have people who enjoy "poppier" music.

We will most certainly do what you want but be careful of what you ask for.

Think about it for a second, theres a good chance when you went to a tasting you never had, pecan crusted turkish talapia, but it was REALLY REALLY GOOD, and you put it on your menu, why because your caterer who caters 100s of weddings per year, suggested it, and it went over a lot better than.. Fish Sticks and Fries... right?

Think about trusting your wedding professionals.
