Wedding DJ Playlist Sample

Below you will find a solid set list for a wedding DJ playlist. As you can see, we start off with some good ol' Motown. Groove Me is a great crossover song into disco...it's Motown yet funky! then we slide from disco into Top 40. From there we beat mix into 80's alternative. then we drop a couple of Old School 80s hits, into 90 Fun Rap and wrap it up with the bouncy Venga Boys. Here we have a hard transition back into oldies, but we move into the classics, since everyone is good N' drunk and ready to go crazy! We end the set with Shout. At the end of this wedding DJ playlist, people were falling over from exhaustion. It rocked!
I want you back Jackson 5
Respect Aretha franklin
Groove me King floyd
Boogie shoes Kc & the sunshine band
Funkytown Lipps, inc.
September Earth, wind & fire
Blame it (warning content) Jamie foxx f t-pain
Yeah (clean)warning Usher f ludacris & lil jon
Way i are Timbaland f keri hilson
New sensation Inxs
Anything, anything (i'll give you) Dramarama
Blister in the sun Violent femmes
You dropped a bomb on me Gap band
Super freak Rick james
Baby got back Sir mix-a-lot
Whoomp! (there it is) Tag team
Tootsie roll 69 boyz
We like to party! Vengaboys
Brown eyed girl Van morrison
Twist & shout Beatles
Shout Animal house soundtrack
This is, of course, just a sample, but it covers a huge gambit of music. It is about an hour and a half long and has such a wide variety, you're sure to please just about everybody within this time. Now, if you've seen a bigger response on the dance floor for a given genre, then get back to that genre quickly. And, likewise, if you got NO response to a certain genre, don't bother playing the other one or two songs. Get right into the next set. You can also use many of these upbeat song for your wedding entrance songs.  Have fun and remember, your wedding DJ playlist is a living, breathing document!

Having a professional DJ in wedding or in any kind of event, makes it more lively and entertaining. Dj handles the event or occasion very well to make it more exciting and unforgettable for the couple and for the guest as well. They provide the wedding playlist that the couple chooses and the wedding entrance song. Having one makes the event more organize and provide seamless entertainment.
