With a little less than two months to go (hooray!), we're in the middle of creating the BEST reception playlist featuring dance party jams, cheesy love songs, the works! Since you're all going to be enjoying this shindig with us, we'd love you suggestions. What songs do you want to party to? Are there any songs that make you think of us? Leave your playlist suggestions in the comments, and we'll add 'em to the list!
Love,
Saralyn & Sami
Well, you know I will get the dance floor going no matter what you play, but I will especially get in the groove if you play Bruno Mars, Michael Jackson, Jackson 5, Outkast, Salt & Pepa, Black Eyed Peas, Katy Perry, Beyonce, Happy by Pharrell, Tone Loc, C&C Music Factory, etc. To please the country listener in me, I like some Joe Diffie and Dixie Chicks. Specific songs include anything about summer (Summer Lovin' from Grease, Will Smith's Summertime, Billy Stewart's Summertime, etc) or about shaking body parts ( Rump Shaker, Hey Ya "Shake it like a Polaroid Picture," Baby Got Back, etc).
ReplyDeleteWanna do a geographic nod to the DMV? Play some local sons and daughters: Mary Chapin Carpenter, Chuck Brown, Patsy Cline, Marvin Gaye, Billie Holliday, Tori Amos, Toni Braxton, Thievery Corporation, and Good Charlotte.
