Music

In the words of Madonna, “Music makes the people come together.” It sets the mood upon entering the festivities. Make sure the tunes start off light and inviting—later on it can be changed to another favorite genre. These days a lot of brides are bringing in their own DJ’s, but if that’s not in your budget, you can’t go wrong with creating a playlist on iTunes, Spotify or Pandora. Once everyone is done eating, turn up the volume and don’t be afraid to dance and have fun!
