Set Your Wedding Day to Music
Select Your Wedding Music To Provide Your DJ/Band
Need help selecting songs for your wedding playlist? You will enjoy a condensed playlist below to give you a big picture of wedding songs needed.
- Discover 10 of our favorite songs for popular wedding moments.
- The list is updated on the 1st of each month.
- You can also click to see more detailed lists for each section.
- Exact songs can only appear once in our wedding playlist. Cover songs are allowed but not a single song by the same artist twice.
- Please do not give your music entertainment a list of 180 songs. If your wedding reception is 4 hours, 80 songs at 3 minutes each will take 4 hours. Provide your top 20 songs and songs that have a personal meaning to you. The music entertainment is paid to read the crowd and play what fills the dance floor.
- Provide your song suggestions to your music entertainment at least 2 weeks before your big day. They need time to prepare your playlist to match your music tastes and practice introductions.
To make your wedding day a memorable one, we try and give you ideas not played at every wedding – and some of the greatest wedding song choices.
If you want to stay up-to-date with new wedding song releases, don’t forget to sign up for our monthly newsletter.
