Intro
The ceremony is emotional. The meal is delicious. But the dance floor? That’s where the memories are made. At Intergalactic Party Co, we’ve performed at hundreds of weddings across the UK — and we’ve seen what really fills a floor. If you’re planning your 2025 wedding, this list is your secret weapon to keep the vibe sky-high all night.

1. “September” – Earth, Wind & Fire
An unstoppable classic. The horns. The groove. The nostalgia. This one works across all generations — and it never fails.

2. “Shut Up and Dance” – Walk The Moon
Modern enough for the younger crowd, clean enough for grandma. Infectious energy and lyrics that are practically an invitation to get up and move.

3. “Mr Brightside” – The Killers
A UK wedding staple. Whether it’s midnight or encore time, this one sends everyone into a glorious singalong frenzy. – 90s and 00s bangers

4. “Uptown Funk” – Bruno Mars
Pure swagger and style. The beat drops and the entire room moves in unison. Works great with a live brass section too.

5. “Proud Mary” – Tina Turner
A brilliant build-up that explodes into an all-out jam. Great for bands with powerhouse female vocals. 

6. “Levitating” – Dua Lipa
Perfect for modern weddings looking to mix chart hits with feel-good energy. Disco vibes + pop edge.

7. “Valerie” – Amy Winehouse/Mark Ronson
A soulful crowd-pleaser. Works wonderfully for early dancing or building the vibe before the bangers hit.

8. “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” – Whitney Houston
Timeless. Euphoric. Beloved. This one always gets a big cheer.

9. “Teenage Dirtbag” – Wheatus
A surprise hit. Great for evening crowds who grew up in the 2000s — everyone knows the words, and it turns nostalgic energy into movement.

10. “Don’t Stop Me Now” – Queen
The name says it all. Big vocals, big harmonies, and the ultimate celebration vibe to close out the night.

Bonus Tip: Start With a First Dance That Builds Energy
Pick a first dance that’s either a modern romantic tune or something that transitions smoothly into party mode. We often help couples create a seamless medley — from slow & emotional to upbeat and bold — that invites guests to join in and keeps the dance floor busy from song one.
