I guess you already read that my goal is personalizing your event in base of your own preferences but how does it works?
Well, you can either tell me your favorite genres and I’ll do the selection of songs based on my experience or you can send me a song list that you like
Some couples send me a hundred songs list and some others just send me the “must play” and “Do not play” list
It doesn’t matter how well we do the planning, at the moment of truth reading the crowd is very important and if you want to keep the party going is always good to leave the DJ a little bit of room to improvise as well
So if you are planning to do your own list I suggest not spending much time in making it long, a few songs will give a very good clue of your tastes and also I can only play about twenty songs per hour so this will give you a good idea and as I said before keep some time for improvising, requests, etc.
Also keep in mind your guests, what they like to hear and dance. They are doing a great effort to assist to a destination wedding in terms of expenses and time so it is always nice to make sure they will spend a great time as well. Maybe you can tell them to send you a few song names they love to dance or letting me know their age range and from which cities are they coming from also will be very helpful.
