Happy Thursday, readers!

Throughout our wedding planning, J and I have agreed on one major part of our wedding reception: the dance. While we both always knew that, to us, a reception is not a reception without a dance, once we saw the pricing structure for today’s DJ services, we knew we’d have to be creative.

Enter: I-pod wedding.

For me, as a type-A personality and a control freak, having absolute control over the music played at our wedding is a MUST, and for the cost of renting speakers, we’ll have an instant DJ set-up that will A) be cost-effective for our budget; and B) reflect who we are as a couple, as all of the songs will be selected by us.

Today, dear readers, I’m writing to ask for your input. J and I are in the process of compiling a music playlist for our wedding reception. To make this list, we’ve made lists of songs that J and I have already downloaded to our Itunes software that we think might make “good wedding dance material.”

However, we’d LOVE to hear from you!

Here’s a few quick questions for you:

1. What song(s) do you LOVE to dance to?
2. What song(s) do you HATE and are sick of hearing at wedding dances?

One note:  There will be no YMCA, chicken dance, Shout!, Hokey Pokey, or Cha Cha Slide Song (“one hop this time!”). Please refrain from suggesting these songs (unless they happen to be your answer to question #2).

Thank you all for your input; please leave your comments below!
