When it comes to your reception, your dance floor and your music choices are so important. You want to pick the right kind of music for each part of your wedding. Your background music is going to be different from your party music! And your party music needs to get people dancing. After all, a wedding isn’t a party until guests start dancing! Our list of wedding songs will help you come up with your perfect wedding playlist
Top 5 Background Songs
No matter if your wedding is big or small, you’ll need to include some great background music on your list of wedding songs. These songs can be played as guests arrive at the ceremony, during the cocktail hour, and even as guests head into the reception space. Instead of making them sit in silence, have a playlist ready to go! We suggest keeping this music pretty light with some classics mixed in.
- “The Way You Look Tonight” by Frank Sinatra
- “Everything” by Michael Bublé
- “Perfect” by Ed Sheeran
- “L-O-V-E” by Nat King Cole
- “Lover” by Taylor Swift

This is the most important wedding song of the night! Your first dance is such a romantic and personal time, so of course, you need the perfect song. It should really represent the two of you and your style. Luckily, there are tons of romantic songs out there that are perfect for the job. These are our top five favorites!

As the sun sets, it’s time for guests to party! Whether you’re making your own wedding playlist or you’ve hired a DJ, you want to make sure your wedding song choices get people moving. Upbeat songs that people are familiar with is one surefire way to start the dancing. Another way to make sure people dance? Give guests an option to jot down their favorite dance song when they RSVP!

The Dance Floor
We all know the right wedding songs are important. But when it comes to a safe and fun wedding, a dance floor is crucial, especially with outdoor weddings. A properly installed dance floor can ensure that no one trips or falls and prevent your guests from getting their shoes dirty or muddy. Not to mention, a dance floor can serve as a great reception focal point! Our dance floors at Wood N Crate are extremely sturdy and well-maintained. They can be delivered to indoor and outdoor Arizona venues, and they’re great for grass and backyard weddings. We have some great options too!
The Magnolia Dance Floor
Our custom-built Magnolia Dance Floor is a sturdy, stunning hardwood dance floor. This 16’x16’ piece of art is one of a kind! Your guests will love the warm glow of the under-lighting around the outer edge of this dance floor. It’s pretty, and it makes your dance party a little safer. It’s also a nice dark wood, so you can add uplighting around it or a gobo monogram.
The New England Plank Floor
If you’re looking for a larger or smaller dance floor, the New England Plank is the best option. It comes in three sizes, ranging from 12’x12’ to 20’x20’. So, it’s perfect for intimate weddings and big parties! Plus, this dance floor includes an optional lighting pole insert in the center for canopy lighting. (Be sure to ask us about our custom bistro lighting!)
The perfect party is a combination of many factors, but you should definitely pay special attention to your wedding songs and your dance floor. Luckily, Wood N Crates has the dance floor covered.
