Thought this is the best place to ask...best country songs?

I just started a new wedding DJ business for the weekends and I have a wedding tomorrow that wants mostly country music.
I like country music (well all music) but it's not my strongest in knowledge set. Could you guys recommend your favorite country music songs? I want to make it a great day for this young couple and their family. Thanks in advance!!!!

My favorite singer of all genres has always been Conway Twitty.
With that said for a wedding I would suggest
"Lost In the Feeling"
Now if you want a "newer" country singer who did a cover of it you can get the cover by
Mark Chestnut which maybe the young couple would like but sheesh it's hard to pick against Twitty.

but I would go with Conway here.

There are several country songs that will usually be good

crowd pleasers. Some of the other suggestions I've seen on here don't seem to be "wedding type" songs. If it's a younger crowd, I highly doubt they'll want to hear George Jones, Merle Haggard, etc. Most of these are either extremely well known or more upbeat songs.
Alabama - "Dixieland Delight" (or "Mountain Music" or "Song of the South")
Garth Brooks - "Friends in Low Places"
Brooks & Dunn - "Boot Scootin' Boogie" (or "My Maria" or "Red Dirt Road")
David Allan Coe - "You Never Even Called Me by My Name"
Old Crow Medicine Show - "Wagon Wheel"
Tim McGraw - "Something Like That"
Johnny Cash - "I Walk the Line"
George Strait - "Check Yes or No"
David Lee Murphy - "Dust on the Bottle"
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - "Fishin' in the Dark"
As for some of the newer guys, you'd be safe playing some of these:
Luke Bryan - "Play It Again" (or "Crash My Party")
Darius Rucker - "Alright"
Brad Paisley - "Mud on the Tires"
Brett Eldredge - "Beat of the Music" (or "Mean To Me")
Eric Church - "Springsteen"
Florida Georgia Line - "Cruise"
Jason Aldean - "Big Green Tractor"
Keith Urban - "Making Memories of Us"
Rascal Flatts - "Bless the Broken Road"
Zac Brown Band - "Chicken Fried"
If you want me to give you some more, just send me a tmail and I'll check it in the morning and give you some more.

For a wedding, songs like Alan Jacksons-"it must be love", "livin on love". Randy Travis- "deeper than the holler." Zac brown band- "whatever it is". Easton Corbin - "Lovin you is fun". A funny one to play by Easton Corbin would be "Don't ask me bout a woman".
