Here are some of our tips and tricks on how to create a wedding reception playlist that will have your guests raving about your music.
Tip #1: Make a playlist with your fiancé!
Create a playlist and share it with your fiancé, so you can both add songs to it anytime inspiration strikes! Listening to the radio, and a song comes up that you want just add it to the playlist. This also allows for you to not have duplicates on your wedding playlist.
Tip #2: Ask for requests!
Who better to ask for music requests than the guests that will be attending your wedding reception? When you send out your save the dates, make sure to add a section that allows people to put in song requests. That way you’ll know they will love the music that you are going to play at your wedding reception.
Tip #3: Include LOTS of music!
There is never too much music that you can have on your wedding reception playlist! You would rather have too much than not enough music. If you do run through your whole wedding playlist don’t sweat it, your DJ will have back up music that will fit right into your reception.
Tip #4: Add a mix of genres!
If you want to reach every crowd, make sure to have a mix of genres on your playlist.

Mixing it up will also allow you to not get tired of one music genre playing the whole night, and it will keep your wedding guests guessing what song is going to come next.
