The DJ’s Choice Wedding Cocktail Hour Playlist
For the 88th installment of the Ambient DJ wedding cocktail hour playlist series, we turn to one of our company’s star performers Mike Bacon, aka “DJ Iron Mike.” Mike was recently married and for cocktail hour provided his DJ a melange of classic soul, 70s soft rock, 80s, 90s, R&B and contemporary selections. Mike’s actual set list is shown below, and he clearly dug deeper musically than the average groom.
For an accompanying signature drink, Mike has selected his favorite craft beer, Hazelnut Brown Nectar by Oregon-based Rogue brewery.
Immediately after the playlist, listen to Mike’s selected songs on a special Spotify playlist.
