Tips for wedding karaoke

• Read the room’s age range. Mix a Motown classic for the grandparents with a recent hit for the younger crowd so nobody sits out.
• Keep it clean. It’s a family event — skip the songs with verses you’d rather grandma didn’t hear.
• Plan a guaranteed closer. End on one everybody knows so the last memory is the whole room singing together.
• Have duets ready. Get the couple, or the parents, up for one — see the best duet karaoke songs.
