    I’ll have a few slow songs throughout the night that we love that way those who don’t really dance to the upbeat music have a chance to join in.

    Of course, need some to dance close to! But, a good variety is what we will have from different decades, too. Our theme song is Tim McGraw's "Not a Moment Too Soon."

    Yea, but not too many hopefully. We are using a website for RSVP's and there is a spot for song requests. We'll have to wait and see what people want.

    Yea, but we'll leave the mix up to the DJ. A good DJ will be able to vibe out the crowd and change the energy of the room when needed and appropriate.

    We don’t have a “song” and we’re not really dancers so we’ll have a lot of background music and maybe a couple dance songs.

    Eh, I definitely want a few slow songs, but mostly songs that will get people up and dancing.

    Yea. Some. I want to slow dance with my new husband! Kind of reminds me of a high school dance but with the love of my life cheesy as it may be.

    YES!!!! I love slow songs and I love the romantic feel they give, so I'm definitely doing slow dances every so often. And, FH says he will dance more if they're not "spotlight" dances. so win win!

    YES! It’s a WEDDING! There NEEDS to be. Mix of both fast and slow. Slower for the older and couples to dance to, and faster for the young, singles, and party people!

    Yea! I dont think we will flood with them, but since we have a professional, i'm sure he will be able to tell when they would be good.
