An Easy Way to Share Your Must Plays With Us – DJ Cuttlefish

Hey there, lovely humans and party throwers!

We are often asked if we allow our clients to choose the music and the answer is yes, yes, and will always be yes. If you’re throwing a party for your grandma and her friends, you play what grandma and her friends like, right? It’s just the basics of knowing, understanding, and reading your crowd as a DJ, which is how we specialize in giving you and your guests the feels.

The next question after asking if you can choose your own music is usually “how do we share that with you?” Well, everything that we do is online so after you book online you get your own personalized portal into our system where you can view billing and legal, correspondence, and your questionnaire.

Your questionnaire has all kinds of questions like “what mood do you want the lighting to convey?” “should the music be censored?” “please copy and paste your schedule here” “please list your must play songs and the time you want them played” and all kinds of other questions so we can get to know you. The question about your must play songs is where you put what ya want and when ya want it. You can update this anytime and create a list of songs.

We really love our questionnaires and so do our clients, so we decided to take it a step farther and tell you an even more involved and easy way to create your wedding mix as you live your everyday life.

Say you’re at the gym with your headphones in listening to Spotify and a song that makes you wanna shake your groove thing comes on and you think “ohmy, this would be perfect for my reception!”. Just create a playlist on Spotify named “My Wedding” and add jams as you go.

When it comes time to fill out your questionnaire, simply get that playlist link and paste it in there. Our custom built Video DJ Facade is connected to Spotify through LTE and we can pull your songs directly from your playlist and incorporate them into the night smoothly.

So 2017, right? 😉

10 Slow Songs Everyone Loves

Hi there, humans! We are here to share 10 slow songs your guests are sure to love at your event – especially a wedding!!

Enjoy. 🙂

At Last by Etta James

This song is a beautiful classic that everyone in the room will know. Your photographer will get the sweetest photos of your grandparents, parents, and aunts and uncles holding each other tight during this one.

Falling in Love with You by Elvis

We don’t think this one needs an explanation as to why it’s a good slow song choice. It has the same effect as “At Last” and who doesn’t love Elvis?

How Long Will I Love You by Ellie Goulding

This song isn’t a “classic” (yet… ;)) but it’s by a new popular artist, Ellie Goulding, and has the sweetest lyrics.

Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton

We’ve seen this one used for first dances and absolutely love it. Everyone’s sure to be feeling wonderful after this hit.

When a Man Loves a Woman by Percy Sledge

Also a good first dance song, we’d love to see a groom serenade his new wife with this one. 😉

Latch, the Acoustic Version by Sam Smith

Featured in our most recent mix, this one has some great lyrics about realizing and locking in the love – perfect for the day you latch onto each other for life.  Plus, it’s a newer hit for your modern couple. We recommend the acoustic version for a slow song. The original would be good party music – both are below.

Can’t Fight This Feeling by REO Speedwagon

We just really like this one. It’s also a great sing along.

Better Together by Jack Johnson

This slow song is an upbeat and happy one that’s good for giving your guests a break from party dancing while still keeping the vibes lighthearted.

Your Song by Elton John or Ellie Goulding

Your Song by Elton John is a heart grabbing classic. Play this and the floor is sure to be full of love birds. Or, mix it up (like Prince William and Kate Middleton did for their first dance) and surprise your guests with the modern cover by Ellie Goulding. Both are below.

Make You Feel My Love by Bob Dylan or Adele

On a day that you’re vowing to love one another for life, we think the lyrics for this one has the sweetest sentiment. Plus, there are two different versions that everyone will recognize. Both are below. Which will you choose?
