Need some ideas for songs to play at our reception!

La Chaim.

It helps to have people who are good at dancing to do the floor show.

I used to DJ weddings.

Start off slow with the music as people are entering. Not really dance tunes, down-tempo "lovey-dovey" music. This is good while people are eating as well.

Then slowly start building the tempo. And despite what people may say, disco is a must. It gets all age groups on the dance floor.

Oh, and as the night goes on and the grandparents begin to leave you can morph into the more risque and current songs.
