“Punk for Parents” iPod playlist

Becca and Adam had a big question when it came to wedding music: “How do we play our favorite love(ish) songs… and not have our parents covering their ears, annoyed?” Their solution? A punk rock dinner playlist and a swingin’ rockabilly/80s/oldies dancing playlist.

Jennifer & Rick’s romantic candlelit Daft Punk music wedding

When you meet at Coachella and share a passion for music, it’s only right to honor it with a rockin’ after-party featuring all the music from the concerts you’ve seen. Add in some band name table numbers, glow sticks, Ring Pops, and a Daft Punk cake, and these guests were ready to dance. But not before an ultra-romantic candlelit ceremony!

Heavy metal love songs🤘75 tracks we played at our metal wedding

On my wedding profile, I got a question from one reader who asked “what type of metal did you play that the guests could tolerate all night?” The answer is, well, EVERY TYPE! You have to play all types of metal for those non-metal heads to the pros. We also used our laptop and rented the PA equipment because we could not get a DJ that would cooperate with what we wanted to be played. Here is a list of the main songs we used that night.

Stephanie & Dave’s vintage theater Beatles wedding

Anyone think there can be too much Beatles music? Didn’t think so. How about when it’s in the historic Portage Theater in Chicago? Still in? What if they served popcorn at the ceremony and had an acoustic guitar guest book? Okay, I think you’re safe to crush on this one.
