48 wedding songs for your style

Is anyone else going to scream if they hear "Macarena" one more time? Thought so. With so many different music choices, there's no reason to go with a by-the-book wedding playlist. Show off your couple personality with songs that reflect your style -- and don't sound like every other wedding you've ever been to. We've even done the work for you! Go straight with one sound style, or mix and match for an eclectic assortment that'll have your guests up on their feet all night.

Your Wedding Style: Indie

Your wedding is as unique as you (hence the funny video montage you both created for your wedding web page). Your style is understated with quirky details, like the Converse sneakers he's wearing with his suit or the fabric clutch you found on Etsy.com that goes perfectly with your casual, vintage dress. When it comes to music, you're anti-Top 40 for your wedding (or any other day, while we're at it).

Your Wedding Style: All-American

You prefer giant, outdoor rock concerts with uber-famous headliners to tiny bars with no-name bands. Your wedding mixes tradition (of course you're wearing Vera!) with plain ol' fun. To pack the dance floor and keep it that way all night long, you want music that your best friends, as well as your partying grandma, can get down to without missing a beat.
