Programming
your iPod correctly
To
program your iPod for your wedding reception you must create the
following SEPERATE playlists on your iPod:
Cocktails
-
program about 1 hour of cocktail music - keep it upbeat but classy
- Sinatra, Buble, James Taylor, etc.
Intro
-
if you
are being introduced by the band to your guests then put your
intro song on this playlist - make it something fun like "Let's
Get Ready to Rumble" or maybe your college fight song, etc.
Cake Cutting
-
some
couples like to have a song for the cake - it usually goes
un-noticed by the guests but if you would like put a song here -
"build me up buttercup", "how sweet it is to be loved by you",
"sugar sugar", etc.
Dinner
-
about
1 hour of dinner music - strictly background - your guests will
all be talking so they won't really hear it anyway - stick with
jazz or other "laid back" songs. If you're a Kansas City
Jazz fan, our favorite dinner music CD is from Kansas City's own
jazz pianist Joe Cartwright - his CD's are PERFECT for dinner
music at weddings and you can pick them up at
Joe Cartwright's Jazz CD Store
online.
First Dances
-
put
your first dance song, your father of the bride song, your mother
of the groom song and your wedding party dance song on this list
IN ORDER. It is SUPER important that these songs are in the
correct order on your playlist or embarrassing mistakes will
occur!
Break Music
-
put at
least an hour of break music on this playlist - the band may not
use it all so put your favorites at the top of the list. DO
NOT put any songs on this list that are listed at
www.kcallstars.com/songlist .
Tosses
-
put
your bouquet toss / garter toss songs here IN ORDER.
