What should your wedding DJ be playing? In Chicago, that answer’s as diverse as the people you’ll have at your wedding.

But it’s nice to have a few ideas to get your playlist started.

That’s why every Monday, we ask our Chicago wedding DJs the same question: Which songs killed it on your dance floors this past weekend? Here are their answers for June 2017..

First, a few disclaimers:

  • This list is NOT scientific. If you want to know which songs are stastically popular across the country, there are plenty of other places to look. There are just our DJs’ memories of what happened with one particular group of guests at one particular event over the last few weeks. And what happened was, those guests partied down.
  • It’s not just what you play; it’s also when you play it. Some of the songs below might be terrible with a different crowd – or even with the same crowd, played at a different time of night. That’s what makes DJs are better than jukeboxes: They’ve learned to take your requests, read your dance floor, and then put your music in the right context to make it a party.

Here’s how we did that last month:
