The best way to bring heart and soul to any wedding reception is through a carefully curated playlist of R&B favorites. Make sure all of your guests have something to sing along to by selecting songs from artists throughout the years.
Your grandparents might not groove along with a song from Brandy, but maybe they’d feel inspired to get up and dance to a classic Etta James or Otis Redding tune. And while the parents of the bride may feel moved to dance when Anita Baker or Luther Vandross comes on, your bridal party might rush the dance floor for Beyonce or Frank Ocean.
Whatever your favorites might be, this list is the ultimate R&B soundtrack.
