This is How We Rock (and Roll)

Tonight future hubs and I conquered a major task on his to-do list: Our Playlist.
In an effort to save money, we've decided to forgo having a DJ. Our venue (once again, proving their awesomeness) has a sound system included with the rental of the property. Also, since FH is a computer guy, we decided it would be something we could definitely handle ourselves. Together tonight, we made a list of 94 songs we'd like to play during our fiesta. Keep in mind our ceremony starts at 5pm, and we can have people/dancing until midnight, so we need about seven hours of tunes. Want to hear/see some of my personal favs?

Also on the list are:
Mozella-Can't Stop
Ben Folds-Luckiest
The Spencer Davis Group-Gimme some lovin'

Now, we've divided the songs into several categories in order to make day-of more do-able.
The Categories:
Pre-ceremony
Ceremony
Cocktail Hour
Dinner
Dancing

Each Category will have its own playlist, as will each designated dance (such as first dance and father-daughter).

Did anyone else choose to do their own music? How did it go?
