Sophia & Harry’s Wedding at Jones & Sons: A Dancefloor Marathon
Sophia & Harry’s wedding at Jones & Sons was exactly what a wedding should be—a night of big tunes, packed dancefloors, and zero pretension. We are incredibly privileged to be on the preferred suppliers list at this venue and it never disappoints. It’s got that perfect mix of laid-back cool and proper party energy, making it one of the best places in London to throw a wedding that really feels like a celebration.
This time, DJ Edamame was in charge of keeping the party going, and with a playlist like this, the mission was clear—get everyone up, keep them moving, and lean into the fun side of things.
A First Dance That Hit Just Right
Sophia & Harry kicked things off with "This Must Be The Place (Naïve Melody)" by Talking Heads—a first dance that felt effortless and cool without trying too hard. A perfect warm-up before the setlist took a sharp turn towards full-blown wedding party mode.
Straight out of the gate, "Feels Like I’m in Love" by Kelly Marie and "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" by ABBA got everyone loosened up and in the mood to party. It was clear early on that this was going to be a night of singalongs, disco grooves, and a bit of playful chaos.
The Soundtrack to an Unapologetic Good Time
With a setlist like this, there was no room for wallflowers. "Murder on the Dancefloor" by Sophie Ellis-Bextor, "I Want Your Love" by Chic, and "Into the Groove" by Madonna brought that disco energy, while Spice Girls’ "Who Do You Think You Are" had people throwing out dance moves they’d clearly been saving for the right occasion.
From George Michael’s "Faith" to Dolly Parton’s "Jolene", this was pure, unfiltered wedding gold—the kind of set where everyone knows the words, and nobody cares how they sound singing them.
The Wild Cards That Landed
Not every track was a safe bet, but that’s what made the night even better. Some curveballs went down way better than you might expect:
"Burning Down the House" by Talking Heads – A moment of controlled chaos.
"Texas Hold ‘Em" by Beyoncé – Maybe divisive, but this crowd was into it.
"Let’s Have a Kiki" by Scissor Sisters – Unexpected, camp, and absolutely brilliant.
"Edge of Seventeen" by Stevie Nicks – You might not think of it as a dancefloor anthem… until you see an entire room lose themselves to that riff.
From Wedding Floor to Full Club Energy
Later on, things got a bit more clubby, with some heavy hitters in the mix:
"Groove Is in the Heart" by Deee-Lite – Remains unstoppable.
"Red Alert" by Basement Jaxx – Straight-up party mode.
"Satisfaction" by Benny Benassi – A gear shift, but it worked.
"Pon De Floor" by Major Lazer – This one hit harder than expected.
By the time "The Rhythm of the Night" by Corona dropped, the room had officially entered peak 90s dance nostalgia.
The Perfect End to a Proper Party
To wrap things up, Sophia & Harry went with "Believe" by Cher", which, let’s be honest, is simply a great choice of closing song for a wedding. A final, full-throttle singalong, a bit of dancefloor dramatics, and the kind of ending that guarantees sore feet and slightly hoarse voices the next morning.
Jones & Sons delivered yet again, and Sophia & Harry’s crowd proved that sometimes, the best wedding parties are the ones that don’t take themselves too seriously. Big shoutout to DJ Edamame for keeping the night moving from start to finish.
Congrats Sophia & Harry – that was a proper wedding party.
