30 Songs That Should NOT be Played at Weddings Anymore
Having a good DJ for your wedding reception is a must. They set the mood for the party after the ceremony is completed. That person must be able to keep the party going all night, while not playing the same song over and over being requested by one of the drunk bridesmaids. :) With so many weddings still taking place this summer I thought it was brilliant of FiveThirtyEight to do a survey of the Top 30 Most-Banned Wedding Songs.

I will admit there are a few songs that made the list that I still enjoy busting a move to, even though dancing isn't exactly something I do well. Can you add any songs to the list or is there any song on the list that you think is a wedding must-have?
