Wedding Reception Songs

[mattsey9]

I have a dilemma, and what better place to ask for advice could there be....

I have to select two songs to be played at my wedding reception. The first is for the song to be played as the wedding party is being introduced at the reception. I've suggested several metal songs as options, but I'm getting shot down. Any suggestions for music that doesn't suck that would fit the bill? I don't want to end up fighting a losing battle and ending up with something from Dave Matthews or Enya or something similarly horrible.

The second song is for the groom & mother dance. I hit a few sites that claim to specialize in selecting music, but they all were suggesting sappy love songs. Not my idea of a song I want to dance to with my mother. Again, any suggestions?

Yeah, a lot of the songs some websites recommend for the monther-son dance are pretty creepy.

We used "Hope You'll Dance" by Lee Ann Womack.

Dr. Dre - Housewife Lyrics

Chorus: Kurupt

Now this this is one of them
occasions
where the homies not doin it right
I mean he
found him a hoe that he like
But you can't make a hoe
a housewife
And when it all boils down you gonna find in
the end
a bitch is a bitch, but a Dogg is a man's best
friend
So what you found you a hoe that you like
But
you can't make a hoe a housewife (wife)

[Dr.
Dre]
I mostly sold dick while I packed a gold clip
Worked my money-maker, she got paper, she bout to trip
(Where the [censored] is my money?) I cannot G guilty
You
pimpin strong, but comin home, to sheets that be filthy
She
on the dillzy, I take advantage
All up in them panties, I
got this bitch speakin Spanish
I'm mannish - get
yo' nails out my back
[censored] I'm bout to nut and
get up, go scrub yo' cat
Learn the player rules, this
is how I play a dude
Might not be a freak, but she got on
the choosin shoes
Dollar signs are folded, I can't
control it
Tryin to leave her, beeper just exploded
She sweatin me, won't let me, broad turned fraud
Now
she on this dick huh, got her turnin tricks huh
Man
it's a trip I don't trip I'm in yo' Lexus
flexin
I left her up in Dallas, Texas - assed-out

Chorus

[Hittman]
Naw hoe is short for honey,
almost had her Wailin like Bunny
Tellin tales of bein
pregnant, catchin Norstrom sales withabortion money
I
spotted her, seen her with my nigga when I shot at her
Now
we got beef, he caught up in the hoe's erotica
Exotic
- she's psychotic, rockin his Nautica
Soon he'll
need antibiotics (sucka bitch)
Name a sexual disease, she
got it like Sam Goody
You be like, "Damn how could she hit
me off with chlamydia?"
Fool I pity ya
We live in the
city off, ballers
with more bouncin than a Zapp, she will
doo-wah-diddy-ya
Prettier to grittier, the wittier can get
her
to the Hotel, Niko, on some Sauve [censored] like, Rico
That's when I caught a Vision like Coleco
A
high-post hoe, a perfect way for me to keep dough
Huh, have
her sellin ass on Bronson Ave. and Pico

[Kurupt]
At the ho-tel, mo-tel, or the Holiday Inn (say what nigga?)
I said if that bitch keep [censored] up (beotch) then we'll
[censored] herfriends
I said I dip, dive, what can I say?
Niggaz need to stop [censored] with O.J.
Some niggaz bang
blood, some niggaz bang crip
And bitches ain't [censored]
but hoes and tricks
I had to dream of hoes, I had to scream
at hoes
I seen my hoes in all kinds of clothes
Lil' Almond Joy, I truly enjoy
if you blew my balls,
right through my drawers
Come back to the mansion, chill at
the spot
From the way she was blowin, I know she does it a
lot
I have a eight-and-a-half, nine-and-three-quarters
The hoe started callin when I started boss ballin
Gimme
some head, gimme some ass (uh-huh)
Gimme some cash, pass it
to Daz
Pass it to Snoop, or pass it to Nate
Hoes eat
dick like eggs and steak
That ain't [censored] new, I
thought you knew (what?)
I knew you would, you wish you
could
break a G down, break me down
But I'ma see
you on the rebound (what what?) D.P. style

sk,

poor humor and a waste of bandwidth.

I've never been to a reception where they introduce the whole wedding party, does this include bridesmaids and stuff? Or is it just like, everybody walks in to the song? If it's the latter and you want some metal I would go with "Angel of Death." You can come in doing cartwheels to the banshee scream, it'll be awesome.

Re: second one, "Let's Get it On" by Marvin Gaye.

Great suggestion, but unfortunately this is already being used during the church ceremony... [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

It includes the entire wedding party, which is going to be 30 people. Don't ask... I've been thinking about using one song for the party, and using a second song for us which would be Queen's wedding march from Flash Gordon. I may be able to sell that one, but I need something good for the first part.
