What is some of your ideas of a traditional wedding music that must be played at the reception?

So far I got these timeless classic that have been played for eons at every wedding I have ever gone to. Am I missing any, following is what I have so far.

Chicken Dance

The Bunny Hop

@Brainsbeforebeauty do you think I have it covered or are there some missing

[OlderAndWiser]

I think most of those songs are perhaps more popular at weddings in areas where there are strong ethnic enclaves. In my area, none of those are very popular at weddings.

[humanearth]

Really I thought it was played almost everywhere

[humanearth]

Well also 90% of my family is Polish, German and Italian so these are staples in my family

Not here in the South! You'd be more likely to hear "YMCA" at a wedding. (When I got married and hired a band, I told them that if they played YMCA, I would refuse to pay them! It worked: no YMCA!)

Laughing my Butt Off, Well we have to have thats song, we are having a Hippie/Disco Theme wedding (wifes dream re-wedding) I care about is drinking, dancing and hope not to throw-up from over drinking

If I got married to a Christian guy I would let him choose the music cause I would choose foreign music that nobody understands.

The most famous music that is played in nearly every wedding worldwide is for Richard Wagner-wedding march
