Planning the Perfect Playlist for Your Wedding Day

THE MUSIC that you select for your wedding day should be as perfect as every other aspect of this occasion. From the music played during the ceremony to the songs played at your reception, your choices should reflect the theme of the day.

YOUR WEDDING PLAYLIST should be an accurate reflection of the kind of music that you and your fiancé enjoy. The professional entertainers from the DJ Company you select can offer assistance as you plan the details of your playlist. A trained professional should be able to provide insight based on experience and knowledge, so consulting with your Pittsburgh DJ before you finalize your playlist is a wise strategy.

THE DJ you choose will set the tone for your wedding reception and even keep the party going well into the night. The following are a few points worth considering as you organize the music for your special day.

INTRO

NO ONE SHOULD DICTATE YOUR WEDDING THEME AND THE MUSIC you play except you and your fiancé. You should both be happy with the tone of the event, and you should each approve of the music that is played. If you both want to play upbeat country music on your wedding day, you might consider planning a wedding with a ranch or country theme. If you dream of playing romantic ballads at your reception, then a more elegant theme would probably be appropriate. Playing the latest hip-hop singles at a wedding with a formal tone would probably seem odd to your guests. Just be sure to do what makes you and your partner happy – this day is supposed to be a celebration of your love for each other.

DON’T FORGET TO DISCUSS THE VARIOUS NOTEWORTHY MOMENTS during the wedding that should be matched with suitable music. You’ll want to choose a piece for the ceremony that is meaningful to you and your beloved. Other significant moments may include the first tune played at the reception as your grand entrance, the song that accompanies your first dance as a married couple, and the piece that is played when you cut the wedding cake. Your DJ can help you to explore some viable options for these moments if you don’t already have any selections in mind.

STAY TRUE TO THE THEME

SELECT THE RIGHT TUNES FOR THE MOST SPECIAL MOMENTS

IF YOUR WEDDING IS IN THE WINTER, seasonal holiday songs could be appropriate. If it’s during the week of the Fourth of July, you might ask the DJ to direct your guests’ attention to fireworks at the end of the night. The time of day should also be taken into consideration. If your wedding reception is a sit-down luncheon, you might want to plan for music that serves well as a background for conversation. If your reception is at night, then music that people can dance to for hours could be the perfect choice.

WHILE YOU SHOULD CERTAINLY CHOOSE THE TYPES OF MUSIC THAT YOU AND YOUR FIANCÉ APPRECIATE, it is also polite to consider your guests when organizing your wedding playlist. If elderly relatives and young children will be at the reception, you should abstain from playing anything too risqué. If you have a song or two in mind that may not be appropriate for mixed company, save them for the late-night dancing when only those who would not be offended will still be present. Alternatively, you could host another party when you return from your honeymoon, and invite only your peers who will appreciate the modern music.

THINK ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO WILL BE IN ATTENDANCE

CONSIDER THE SEASON, DATE, AND TIME OF DAY

LIKE ALL OF THE OTHER DETAILS associated with your wedding, you want the music to be perfect as well. A professional DJ from Wenning Entertainment in Pittsburgh, PA can help you to accomplish this goal.
