Cocktail Hour Music -80s theme too much?

Aurora, on October 16, 2019 at 2:37 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 11
So we have an hour Catholic ceremony with no first look. So we will have an hour and a half cocktail time. I was thinking about having up beat 80s music the entire time. Dinner do 30s 40s and 50s (it's a formal sit down) and then do more up-to-date music come dance time.

Is an hour and half of 80s too much???

    The majority of our music is 80’s and 90’s...,mostly rock and country.

    No way!!! I love the 80s, and all that goes with it. I'm trying to cram as much 80s music into my reception as I can. lol

    But seriously, I think it depends on the age group of the guests. If you have a lot of guests who grew up in the 80s, like I did, then your guests will probably be thrilled! For other folks, they probably won't complain. At least it will be a party atmosphere.

    So I'm 33, my FH is 40. Most people are between the ages of 28 and 50.

    But glad to see others are digging the 80s 😁

    Giiirrrrllll it’s your wedding! You could play 80’s all night If you wanted to!! LOL I am a major music lover, so I’m going to be all over the map with my music. Some people won’t like country, rap, reggae, 80’s, 90’s....etc. but WE DO!! 🥳🎶

    FH and I are both 51, so, unlike many of you young brides here, we grew up in the 80s!!! That music was the soundtrack for our lives. FH and I first met in 7th grade, and dated in 9th grade, and so those songs are all apart of our history.

    Nah. But you gotta play Dead or Alive's "You Spin Me Round"!

    I'm doing all 90s music myself (for after-dinner dancing).
