nightmare - it could get hijacked by someone who thinks they can sing, but can't and won't get off and leaves everyone with bleeding ears. My cousin hijacked the DJ's mic at my brothers 21st and was wailing on it all night - not pleasant  |

DON'T GO THERE!
Karaoke can kill a wedding.
Unless it is presented professionally and controlled effectively it can get way out of hand.
The time line for Karaoke does not fit that of a wedding party.
Guests will only be willing,[had enough alcohol], to get up and sing, just when you really want everyone relaxed and dancing the night away.
The last thing you want is awful extroverts, worse for drink, shouting into a mic and driving granny and granddad into the bar away from the noise.
I Know it can work at other party's but a wedding is special and you need to consider all age groups.
Get a good DJ that is interactive and prepared to mix differing types and styles of music.
Maybe have a band or a solo artist to break up the night.
Your guests are there to be entertained and enjoy themselves. _________________ Congratulations to all our Brides and Grooms.
Many Thanks.
