What Music Do I Play?
The songs and genres that create unforgettable wedding dance floors
One of the best ways to imagine your dance floor is to see the kind of music that works at real weddings. Every celebration has its own mix of ages and personalities, but after performing at many events, clear patterns appear. Certain songs and genres consistently bring people together.
The list below shows the styles and popular tracks that often create great moments. It is not a fixed playlist, simply a guide to the music you can expect when the party begins. Your preferences and the energy of your guests shape the direction on the night.
Modern Pop and Feel Good Hits
High energy favourites that fill the floor across all ages.
Pop Punk and Alternative Nostalgia
For couples and guests who love a bit of 90s and 2000s attitude.
Wedding Classics and Sing Alongs
Timeless feel good songs that get everyone smiling and singing together.
Dance and EDM Anthems
Big uplifting songs that create peak moments.
Rock Sing Alongs and Big Guitar Anthems
Huge crowd moments that work especially well later in the night.
Hip Hop, Club and Throwback Party Hits
Recognisable, fun and guaranteed to get people moving.
South African Favourites
While my focus is on modern English pop, I have extensive experience DJing Afrikaans weddings, combining classic favourites with contemporary Afrikaans music as it continues to evolve.
Other Styles I Often Include
Every wedding has its own flavour. Along with the favourites above, I am very comfortable playing the following genres as well:
Your music preferences guide the overall direction. If you love a certain style, I can feature more of it. If you prefer a balanced mix, I blend genres throughout the night based on what keeps the dance floor full.
How I Shape the Music on the Night
Nothing is set in advance because every crowd is different. I watch the room, match the energy of your guests and choose the right music for each moment. If the dance floor opens early, I often start with feel good classics. If it starts later, guests are already warmed up so I may go straight into higher energy songs.
You are welcome to send me your must plays, favourite genres or anything you do not want to hear. I handle the rest and make sure the flow of the night feels natural, smooth and full of great memories.
