Not every couple wants a packed dance floor, and that’s totally okay! In this episode of the Wedding Songs Podcast, Matthew Campbell of My Wedding Songs shares 3 creative ways to plan a wedding reception without dancing that still keeps guests entertained, engaged, and smiling all night long. From 30-minute themed music sets your DJ can mix live, to a fun “Who Knows the Couple Best?” trivia game that can double as Bingo, to turning the dance floor into a selfie station with a goofy photo contest and picture-themed songs.  These ideas will help you craft a celebration that’s just as unforgettable as any dance party.  Whether you’re planning a more low-key vibe, working with venue restrictions, or just want to do something different, tune in for practical tips and plenty of musical inspiration.
