I was the DJ at Travis & Chloe Barnes’ amazing wedding reception Saturday night at the Columbus Athenaeum.  The newlyweds’ friends and family were a blast and the dance floor was packed all night.  I keep track of all the music I play at all my Mark Dantzer Live DJ events.  The biggest songs at Travis and Chloe’s wedding reception?  “Poker Face” by Lady Gaga and “I’ll Be There” by the Jackson 5 (this song caused a HUGE group-hug singalong!)  What song makes you want to dance?

Today’s Nearly Impossible Trivia question was:

23% of men polled say this is the most terrifying thing they will ever do. What?

Answer: Propose marriage!

I am getting ready to propose to Tracie.  She knows it is coming.  We are visiting venues and making wedding plans.  The proposal will not be a surprise, but I still want it to be special-  that is the terrifying part! 

I don’t want to steal any ideas, but I want to hear how you were proposed to…to get inspired.  I want to share your stories with Mix listeners on the air.  Consider your comment to this post to be a great public service to the romantically-challenged!

How were you proposed to?

“I promise I won’t get wet, Dad.”
