The 80's rock!.

Whatever the first guy listed.

A lot will depend upon the type of music you are looking for. There are many great rock songs from the 80's, look up artists Bon Jovi, Def Leopard, White Snake, Motley Crue, Poison, Cinderella, AC/DC(may not be appropriate for a wedding), Black Sabbath, etc.... If you are looking for more of the top 40 music from that time frame, you can try this site which breaks it down by year. If you are looking for country, I can't really help you, good luck http://www.eightyeightynine.com/music/to...
