Yeah, the ones they like.

I hate these questions from clients. It's my opinion that everyone has a handful of songs that mean something to them. If not, they must be the most uptight boring people in the world.

They can choose a hall, menu, dresses, tuxes, cake & flowers, but they can't find it in them to personalize their own video?

Phooey!

Doesn't she know the possibilities are countless?
 
this is just a toss up question.

I know. I'm not annoyed at your situation, but at her for placing you in it.

Since I don't know them, I can only offer generic suggestions. I won't because I doubt that anything contributed in this thread will be anything you wouldn't already know as a seasoned DJ.

Good luck anyway. At the very least, you'll have a nice list for the future.:sqconfused:

Even as a seasoned DJ, I'm always willing to learn from the larger community.
I've already suggested about 5 or 6 songs to her so far. You are right, normally it comes from the B and G. No doubt, but I do have a fair number of clients who still are wanting me to toss names out. She's not pushy at all. Not the slightest. I just told her I would get back to her once I consulted with about 50 of my closest DJ friends online so she would be sure to have a great number of suggestions to choose from.

My point about posting on an international forum is to see what international DJ's suggest. This keeps me fresh thinking. I come here to get seasoned.

Thanks Travis for throwing a bone to me!

Young couple. They have a very diverse taste in music. Very open minded. I'm sure anything we come up with will be considered. I'm just curious to see whats popular in other areas. Thanks for the post, I'll pass those titles on!
 
That's a great question because nobody ever asked it to me. They usually have a CD that they've burned or the music is embedded in the DVD. I would agree that more info from them would be helpful. Example, do they hate country music?
 
Why not one all the way through?

Bryan Adams, All I Do, I Do It For You.
 
I have used Photographs and Memories by Jim Croce with success, Through the years -Kenny Rogers comes to mind. Many others are slipping my mind as Im still taking in the loss of John Allo.
 
I had one for a 50th wedding anniversary. Their song was Love is a many splendored thing, I made the slide show to reflect their dates, engagement, and wedding day. The second part of the montage was the song through the years which I started with their first child, then second grandchildren and so on ended it with a current photo of them together with the last just titled, and they lived happily ever after......

I really enjoy making them, although time consuming, it allows for quite a bit of creativity.
 
I recently had to come up with some music for a soccer highlight video. After not really getting to much that interested me here from the members, I did a google search for 'photo montage music' and was able to locate numerous listings.
