Do you want an energetic party anthem, a sentimental ballad, or your dad&#8217;s embarrassing favourite song?<\/p>\n<p>After that, it&#8217;s a case of browsing and listening to our suggestions. <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/7ujx2xrapQqOYxxTjzTfPP?si=eMJonDf3SPyN8pgXBNImaw\">Our Spotify Playlist should give you some help!<\/a> We&#8217;d definitely encourage you to consider songs you wouldn&#8217;t normally. There&#8217;s so much brilliant music out there, so keep your options broad! It&#8217;s much more exciting!<\/p>\n<p>Come up with a few options, then make sure to check them with your expert dancing partner: DAD! I&#8217;m sure he&#8217;ll want to have a say in things. This will help you narrow it down, and hopefully, you&#8217;ll agree on a classic that you both love.<\/p>\n<p>Then, comes the fun part: dreaming about how to make it even more memorable.

Anyone&#8217;s childhood dream come true! <a href=\"https:\/\/encoremusicians.com\/hire\/string-quartets\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Hire String Quartets\">String quartets<\/a> can also play during your ceremony to maximise bang for buck.<\/li>\n<li>An 80s dance anthem?
