Washington State DJ Shares Popular Wedding Songs

When most people think of a city in Washington State, Seattle most often comes to mind. However, today we will share popular wedding songs from a DJ from just south of Seatle to Olympia. Today’s DJ Spotlight is on Robert Bonham of Music De-Lite DJ Service.

We have a code for playing wedding music that the worst song you can play is the one that one knows. The list below is all well-known wedding songs that would be great for any wedding reception. However, one song, in particular, we really like that is not on every wedding playlist is Under Pressure by Queen.

Under Pressure is a collaboration with David Bowie and is definitely one of the greatest songs of the 80s. The song was sampled in 1990 on the mega-hit Ice Ice Baby by Vanilla Ice. The single men in attendance at a wedding are under pressure to catch, or not catch the bride’s garter to signify the next one to be married.
