\"dj-1332379_1920\"

The \u201880s was a fantastic decade for music, and many tunes from the era lend themselves to wedding festivities. From love-filled power ballads to sweetly-sweet tunes to songs that make you want to feel the beat of the rhythm of the night, there\u2019s endless options for creating the perfect wedding playlist. Check out a few excellent songs to discuss with your wedding DJ or band:<\/p>\n

\u2018Get Out Of My Dreams, Get Into My Car\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

This classic from Billy Ocean is a wonderfully-zany, highly-danceable tune that\u2019s guaranteed to make everyone smile…and get on the dance floor. The combination of clever lyrics, awesome beats, and Ocean\u2019s unmistakeable voice create the perfect wedding dance song.<\/p>\n

\u2018P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

No wedding playlist is complete without Michael Jackson, and the King of Pop has plenty of energetic songs to choose from. \u2018P.Y.T.\u2019 is merely one great example, as there\u2019s also \u2018The Way You Make Me Feel,\u2019 \u2018Beat It,\u2019 \u2018Billie Jean,\u2019 and (of course) \u2018Thriller.\u2019 Who knows, you might inspire a \u2018Thriller\u2019 dance segment at your reception!<\/p>\n

\u2018Africa\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

The hit from Toto isn\u2019t exactly a dance song, but it\u2019s still a great tune with romantic lyrics. \u201cIt’s gonna take a lot to drag me away from you\/ There’s nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do\u201d is a wonderful sentiment that certainly works for a wedding.<\/p>\n

\u2018Girls Just Want To Have Fun\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cyndi Lauper\u2019s iconic tune is always a huge hit at weddings, whether just the girls or the girls and guys get up and dance. Add a little Cyndi to your wedding playlist and delight your guests.<\/p>\n

\u2018I Wanna Dance With Somebody\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2018Dance\u2019 is in the title! \u2018I Wanna Dance With Somebody\u2019 is one of Whitney Houston\u2019s most dance-worthy songs, and yet another option that\u2019s sure to get everyone moving.<\/p>\n

\u2018I Want To Know What Love Is\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

If looking to slow things down every now and then, \u2018I Want To Know What Love Is\u2019 from Foreigner is a great choice. Dance to it with your partner and know you\u2019ve found lasting love.<\/p>\n

\u2018Material Girl\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

Madonna is another wedding must, as most if not all will want to dance to the Queen of Pop. \u2018Material Girl\u2019 is a fabulous option, as is \u2018Holiday\u2019 and \u2018Get Into The Groove.\u2019 Songs during dinner can include \u2018Cherish,\u2019 a song the icon wrote for then-hubby Sean Penn.<\/p>\n
