Wedding Music

You can just tell him that you want your music list to be many different genres so not to make it based so much on just one genre. or you could even collect a playlist yourself and have the dj play it

Tell the DJ they can play a country song no more than once every 10 songs, and even then, the play list is restricted to old school, classic country like Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton. And, the first country song that clears the dance floor, will be the last country song of the night. A good DJ will self-moderate away from any genres that clear the dance floor anyway.

Well, it's not like wedding guests usually get a direct say in the music played, other than their participation or lack on the dance floor communicating tacitly to the DJ. I wouldn't really worry about finding the perfect ratio. As long as you aren't outright banning any and all country music, you are doing your job as a host.

And by the way, I am totally with you and your family.

Just tell the DJ what you just said to us. He or she will respect your wishes.

Maybe just have the DJ play country whenever you and your FH are busy off taking pictures or cutting cake or mingling? If you want people to dance, and your guests love country, then I'd try to appease them where possible (while obviously including your favs for when you guys want to get down). Also, line dancing is great for social distancing!
