Recommendation for songs to play at a wedding

This might be a long-shot considering the demographic of this site, but I have been surprised before, so here it goes. Long story short I am in-charge for a 2 hour playlist to be played at the conclusion of a wedding. By this time everyone should be rather liquored up so I have been asked to try and get everyone dancing. So I am looking for suggestions in-case I have missed anything obvious. [b] Now, most importantly the majority of the the guest attending will be in their early to mid 30s, so the songs will have to reflect that demographic, none of them will get up and dance to Nicki Minaj[/b]. Instead I am looking for songs such as Wham - Wake Me Up, B-52's - Love Shack, Billy Joel - Uptown Girl.

Anyway, any such recommendation would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the recommendations, unfortunately most of the songs are not exactly what I was looking for, but keep them coming.

@Chema:

I think you will find that by their 30s most people, like myself, have figured out their alcohol limits. Sure there's always one or two who go to far but for the most part the dance floor remains a puke free zone.

I would say Welcome Home by Coheed and Cambria, but I assume you wouldn't like it.
