NO Electric Slide at Reception

Nay, on August 21, 2013 at 1:19 PM Posted in Planning 0 10

I was thinking last night about the Electric Slide. Seems like EVERY party I go for whatever occasion the song gets played. It's like the song that will never go away. So I shared my thoughts with hubby that the Electric Slide will be on our DJ's Do Not Play List and guests cannot request it either. He agrees. Only line dances we will have is Cha Cha Slide, Cupid Shuffle (hubby wants that one) and Wobble (which I need to learn). Even the thought of the Electric Slide makes us roll our eyes.

    I just posted a comment on someone's page about Top 10 Songs NOT to be played at wedding receptions. Macarena was on the list. I also added that I hate the Electric Slide and the Chicken Dance and will forbid the DJ from playing it even if it's requested. I used to video weddings years ago and would hear these songs played all the time and I HATE IT! HATE IT!!!

    I'll have to look into the Cupid Shuffle and Wobble. I never heard of those songs. I like the Cha Cha slide though so I'll let that slide into the dance list. LOL.

    I'm having our DJ do a mix of all the line dances together, that way we have them in small portions and get them all out the way at one time

    All of those are on my do not play list. There is no justifiable reason, but I hate group/line dances.

    My fiance wouldn't let the dollar dance go until I compromised by agreeing to the Chicken Dance.

    I'm cool with the electric slide. I actually know that one.

    @Maureen I saw that Do Not Play link. That's what made me think of this post. I meant to post it earlier. lol

    I guess to each his/her own regarding line dances. I'm not against line dances totally, just don't want to hear the Electric Slide during our reception. And I already told the DJ no Chicken Dance or Hokey Pokey for sure.

    ETA: @MrsJa Hubby suggested You Tube for the Wobble too.
