Is it OK to have a do-not-play list at our wedding?

Hi there. There are some songs I really don't want played at our wedding but I know some of my family will request it. Can I give our DJ a list of these songs - but how do they handle it with the guests? I don't want to offend anyone.

Should we have dance lessons?

My partner and I can't agree about dance lessons. We both def want to do the first dance and I think we should get it choreographed but he reckons we should just make it up ourselves. So, what are the benefits of us getting lessons and having it choreographed? I need some ammo haha.
