DJ Wedding Yarra Valley Background Music For Your Reception
Wedding background music is essential for wedding receptions because it sets the mood for the dance time later in the night. You want your DJ Wedding Yarra Valley to play background music that gives your guests a chance to mingle but also gets to sing-a-long or tap their feet to the beat.
When it comes to playing the best wedding reception music while you eat your entree and main meals; the DJ should be playing songs that guest knows that blend into the background so that guest can chat, eat and enjoy the company of others.
It is imperative when the DJ plays music to have it at a volume where guests can still hear each other. While keeping the sound volume at a level, guest can mingle and talk with other guests. Music volume can be increased when it is time to dance.
How to choose the right wedding playlist
You want to create a wedding music playlist that speaks of who you are as a couple, that provides a sense of occasion and appeals to you and your family and friends.
Think about the age and cultural backgrounds of your guests and include music that will appeal. This doesn’t mean you have to compromise your own taste. Simply make the music flow throughout the evening and your guests will leave the wedding smiling after having a blast.
Below are 100 wedding reception song suggestions that you can use, which would suit any wedding reception. I have tried to include a wide range of styles of music with a few country songs included, a few instrumental songs included, a few songs you can sing-a-long to and of course the love songs.
When you ask any DJ about the background music, make sure that he has an online music selector which will allow you to put in all your favourite songs and give you song suggestions so that the DJ knows what music genre your prefer to be included.
Most DJ event planners will let you sort music into categories like brides choices, grooms choices, guest requests and last but not least the do not playlist which I believe every couple should take advantage of and fill out.
Wedding Tips
If you have a gap in between the entree and the main, consider asking your DJ Wedding Yarra Valley to do a dance bracket. This can be heaps of fun, create more excitement at the wedding and gives you more of a chance to hear all the dancing time classic you want to be played. Background music does not have to be played all night, but can be the key to having everyone up and dancing later on in the night.
