just tell the dj what your favorite songs. ..and what songs you hate...theyre professionals and should know what to do - zdroid May 6, 21:28 8

  - I would say that DIY sound is a major source of wedding disappointment - zdroid May 6, 21:47 5
    - paying $30,000 just to get hitched and have a party would have been a major disappointment - kare May 6, 21:51

        chicken dance would be *pimp* at a wedding. i don't know if i've been to one that had the stones to use it, honestly. -- nm - TFox May 6, 21:41 3
        
        I don't think I've ever been to a wedding that *didn't* play the chicken dance. -- nm - JaxSean May 6, 21:47 1
