Special Songs

Introduction of the Bride & Groom: Sweet Disposition – The Temper Trap

First Dance: Sparks – Coldplay

Father-Bride Dance: Turn Around – Kenny Loggins

Mother-Groom Dance: Days Like This – Van Morrison

Cake Cutting: More Today Than Yesterday – Kermit Ruffins

Last Dance: New York, New York – Frank Sinatra 

After a beautiful ceremony performed by Rabbi Aaron Sherman, we began cocktail hour. Knowing the eclectic musical taste of the bride and groom, I played a mix of standards, soft rock, and indie rock, from Frank Sinatra & Ray LaMontagne to Citizen Cope, Coldplay, & Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros.

After the introduction, first dance and parent dances, Lauren’s father welcomed everyone and I continued the same mix of music during dinner. After some entertaining and heartfelt speeches by the Matron of Honor and Best Man, Lauren & Peter cut the cake. We then opened the dance floor with the traditional Jewish dance, the Horah, to Hava Nagilah by David & The High Spirit. Within moments, our Bride & Groom were in their chairs and hoisted up almost to the ceiling, and their parents soon were too! We then got the dancing started, and I opened with a great mix of the ’60s, ’70s, and Motown, mixing in some 80’s pop like Steve Winwood, Whitney Houston, and Madonna, and people filled the dance floor…right then I knew this was going to be a great night. When the last hour came we switched it up a little and I went into the 90s/2000s hip-hop set with some David Guetta and Calvin Harris dance songs are thrown in, and no one ever left the dance floor.

We ended the night with Empire State of Mind followed by New York, New York by Frank Sinatra. Just before the last couple of songs, Ashley pulled out a box under my table and handed out the black and white “Sinatra hats” and glow sticks! Peter and Lauren were given thunderous applause and guests were treated to some delicious Momofuku – Milkbar cookies to take with them.

This was one of my favorite weddings and not one I, or the guests, will soon forget! Thank you again, Ashley and Anna, and congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Lauren & Peter Sklaver!
