Exactly as RT31784 said, think of it like a top 40 radio station rather than a club. Except, you have to have the top 40 for the last 50 or so years, because depending on what the age range is influences what era you play the most. Plus, you're going to get requests for all the old classic cut ups like the twist, macarena, electric slide, and all the other cheesy but appropriate stuff. As they get drunker, play the cheesier stuff, but you can start out the night with just about anything.
Beatmatching can usually fall to the wayside, unless you've already warmed them up, have the floor filled, and want to take them for a ride. Other than that, it's basically keep it popular, and positive.
