Thanks Kam for sharing. Great list of 5 country dance songs.
How is Always On My Mind appropriate for a wedding? It’s about regretting a failed relationship. Shouldn’t that go in the DO NOT PLAY list?
Thanks WeddingDJ. What song would you put in it’s place?
Ashton Lane’s (Primrose Hill) walks the line between country and Americana outdoor wedding song. Written by 2 lovers near the famous Abbey Road Studio for those ” who’s love still burn’s”. Thanks Enjoy!!
i love all of these songs. I think you should add more and give people a more variety then this.
Thank you Jessica. However, we want to stick to 125 as we want to only list the best. Too many songs causes eyes to be glazed over. This way we can update the list annually with fresh songs as well.
