Chances are the band or DJ you’ll book (or have already booked) for your wedding is already prepared with songs to get the party started and keep it going all night. While it’s important to give them freedom to make song decisions based on their expertise, don’t be afraid to make special requests.

MAKING SONG REQUESTS WITH YOUR BAND OR DJ

Aside from the first dance and parent dances, communicate a select handful of meaningful songs that would make the night complete. Additionally, if there are any songs or artists that you don’t want to hear, be sure to communicate that as well.

DJs and bands will appreciate the input, but trust that they’ll be reading the crowd throughout the night in order to play what everyone wants to hear, so keep requests minimal
