World Music for Weddings
Sunday April 27, 2008
I've recently gotten to be pretty good at being a bridesmaid. In fact, I kind of like it. You get to wear the second-fanciest dress at the wedding, sit at the good table, and get free photos to send your Grandma at Christmas. The bad part, though, is that the bridesmaids are expected to get the dancing started at receptions (I'm not sure where that's written down, but it's apparently true). I just find myself having a bit of a hard time getting motivated to dance to Kool & the Gang or whatever disco nightmare the cheesy DJ decides to sling at us. In this day and age, when it's becoming increasingly popular to skip the DJ altogether and just program an iPod with your desired playlist, you're allowed to actually play music that you like. It's definitely worth playing at least a few songs that are wedding-y in their lyrics or vibe, though, to keep the mood appropriate, so check out this playlist of World Music for Weddings. Be unique! You'll be glad you did! Well, your bridesmaids will, at any rate.
