A very special thank you to local wedding DJ (and WeddingAce), Evan Reitmeyer of MyDeejay.com, for waking up early last week and joining the WeddingWire Team at Filene’s Basement’s Running of the Brides® event in Washington, DC!

Evan helped us get the crowd pumped up at this early hour with an awesome playlist. We had so much fun dancing and singing along to the new and old hits! Thanks again!

Be sure to also read Evan’s helpful wedding tips and advice at WeddingAces.com!

Have you ever been to a wedding when the DJ played a song that stopped you in your tracks, not because of its heartwarming tune, but because of its highly inappropriate lyrics? Take a look at our picks for the Top 20 Most Inappropriate Wedding Songs! Here is just a taste…

20. Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) - Journey

The only thing sadder than the death of a love affair which once held infinite promise is probably Journey lead singer Steve Perry’s rock mullet which can be seen in the original video version.

Sample Lyric:
“Troubled times
Caught between confusions and pain, pain, pain
Distant eyes
Promises we made were in vain, vain, vain”

Little Known Fact:
Journey keyboardist Jonathan Cain and lead vocalist Steve Perry wrote this on the road during a period when two of the band members were going through painful divorces due to the stresses (and temptations) of life on the road.

In December we highlighted our Wedding Songs section. Selecting the right wedding music is so important to your wedding day. At WeddingWire, we compiled a categorized database of wedding songs. But we’ve taken it a step further to include actual music samples and music videos from YouTube. You are also able to see the lyrics as well so you really know what you’re getting with each song. And if you don’t see a song you think should be there, suggest it to us!

As with each issue, we feature tops posts from our Community section along with events and promotions. Click below to see our December Newsletter exclusively for WeddingWire members.

DECEMBER NEWSLETTER

We just released our a new site dedicated to helping you choose your wedding songs. We have ideas for songs based on categories, but the really cool thing is each song has a link to either iTunes or Amazon and some even have a video from YouTube so you can listen to clip right away and not have to search for it.
