Let's say that the whole concept of having N.Y.C. wedding band at your wedding didn't workout or you had a special song in mind that a band just couldn't replicate to your satisfaction. What do you do then? A mix compilation is definitely in order.
While it might seem straightforward, you have to have good songs that everyone can enjoy while creating the proper mood. You have to have something that will get everyone moving or else all of the time you spent deciding was all for naught.
As said before, this isn't just a mixed CD so you have some important things that need to be addressed. So here are few things that need to be considered:
Picking the music is immensely important and will set the tone for the party and the rest of the night. With that said, it's imperative that you take everyone's tastes and background into account because the only person who will be blamed is you.
You are busy, frantically running around trying to make sure that everything right and that you and your partner keep your sanity. Add on top that entertaining all your guests at your party and you just might have a meltdown. You can get rid of one worry by simply hiring a band to perform and take the pressure off you.
So if you've taken everything into consideration and still want to create a mix tape, you need to create a tape that everyone can enjoy and yes I mean everyone, but don't forget about your partner. Whether or not you two have the same taste music, find a middle ground and try to appeal to everyone else from there.
Music can enhance things and engrave that moment in your memory so take inventory, are you having a themed wedding? If not, you can choose from a wide variety of songs but if you are the music has to match that theme or else what is the point? The music and your theme have to be one.
You want to start the mix tape a little bit slow, so songs that come first should just break the ice and warm people up a bit. After doing that, then you want to hit them with your best shot with great dancing songs in a long succession until the end of the tape.
