That'll be Abba, Grease, Beegees, Bangles, selection of disco, selection of Motown. And some Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Bassment Jaxx, Oasis and Blur to make them feel edgy and dangerous.
Oh and some Shaggy of course.

I got asked by my mental ex to dj at her wedding, I politely told her to fuck off on the grounds that she is batshit crazy (no really, fully insane)

Don't play loads of dubstep ffs
Play lots of good 80s pop stuff... some Madonna, Midnight Star, Cameo etc that everyone knows... mix it into some house, you're laughing
