So, you’re thinking of ditching the DJ and taking the music reins yourself?
Many couples have ventured into the DIY wedding playlist territory, armed with nothing but Spotify and a dream. But how did it all turn out? Here’s what we found scouring YouTube, Reddit, Facebook, and every blog in between—plus why hiring a pro like DJ Stephanie Stardust could save your big day from becoming a musical fiasco.
The DIY Playlist Chronicles: Success or Snafu?
1. The Good News:
- Personal Touch: Couples who chose their own music often felt their wedding had a personalized vibe. With Spotify playlists, every song was one they wanted to hear.
- Cost Savings: Going DIY can definitely save a few bucks, which is great if you’re on a tight budget or if the idea of spending on a DJ feels like a royal waste.
2. The Not-So-Great News:
The Technical Glitches: Nothing says “unforgettable” like a mid-ceremony sound hiccup or a playlist that accidentally transitions from “A Thousand Years” to “Gangnam Style.” Many couples faced issues with equipment, sound quality, or simply managing the playlist during the event.
The Overwhelming Task: Imagine trying to juggle your vows, mingling with guests, and making sure the right song plays at the right time. Some couples found themselves running back and forth, trying to play DJ while also enjoying their own wedding.
The Vibe Flop: Without a DJ to read the room and adjust the music accordingly, some weddings ended up with awkward silences or an unexpected lull in energy. There was no emcee to communicate the timeline, make announcements, or interaction. Guests didn’t always get the dance party they were hoping for.
