According to the pros at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/vendor\/eastcoast-entertainment-\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EastCoast Entertainment<\/a>, the secret sauce is in reading the room and choosing the right tunes. &#8220;Our artists have been performing for a long time and know how to work the room. They can sense when the crowd seems light and can pick the right song to get everyone on the dance floor and then they keep the energy going to keep them there all night. One great tip is to always start with a classic that everyone knows how to sing,&#8221; says Ashley with EastCoast Entertainment.
