The Perfect Wedding Reception Playlist

6 Pointers for Putting Together the Perfect Playlist

Putting together a DJ playlist for a wedding or special event is an art.

Check out these tips for putting together a playlist your guests will love and dance to all night long!

1

Play the Hits

No matter how you slice it, there are certain songs people just want to hear. Play the hits!

2

90/10 Rule

When it comes to your song ratio of fast to slow, keep it 90% Fast Songs, 10% Slow Songs for best results.

3

Play Current Top 10's

No matter when the wedding is, play the top 5-10 pop songs on the radio that month to get guests on the dance floor!

4

No dead air.

Don’t leave any silence between songs – use a crossfade to create seamless transitions.

5

Don't rely on wifi.

Download the songs before you get to the venue so you don't have to rely on cell service or wifi for streaming.

6

Don't play full songs.

Only play a song for about 90 to 120 seconds to keep the crowd from getting bored.
