Band, DJ, or DIY Playlist
Your first decision will be whether you want to hire out your music or do it yourself. If you want to hire a band, start looking around several months in advance so you can be sure that the band you want will be available. You'll need to do the same for a DJ. If you don't know of any vendors in the area who you can hire, feel free to ask us! We have many excellent recommendations.The other option is to do a DIY playlist for your wedding. You can choose all of the songs that you and your spouse want, and then find someone who can start it up for you before the reception.
Talk With Your Venue
It's important to always speak with your Colorado Springs wedding venue to learn about what they have available in the way of rentals and sounds systems. At The Historic Pinecrest, we have a digital sound system with mixing board - along with wireless microphones and instrumental inputs. This is available if you are using a Pinecrest preferred DJ. Give us a call at 719-357-8613 to learn more.Choose a Theme
Do you and your soon-to-be spouse have a specific theme that surrounds your relationship? Are you a Throwback Couple? Party Couple? Maybe a Country Couple? This can be a great way to decide what types of music should be played at your wedding. Of course, if your wedding has a certain theme, you'll want to also consider sticking with that so your wedding and music all go together.Choose Key Songs
If you and your fiance have specific songs, be sure and give those titles to your musicians or DJ. If you don't' know where to start, think of songs that remind you of your first date, first kiss, your engagement, or even a special outing that you planned for each other while you were dating. These can all be great ways to choose songs that are key.Additionally, you'll want to think about songs that could have played a role in your growing up years if you will be doing a Father/Daughter dance, Mother/Son dance, etc. While there are many lists that can provide suggestions, there's something special about a song that you and your father shared together. This can be as funny or as sentimental as you would like.

Get Your Guests Involved
Another fun choice for your wedding could be to let the guests choose your songs! You can put cards and pencils at the tables where they can write down songs they would like to hear and then submit them to the DJ. This is a wonderful way to ensure that the dancing lasts all night long, as your guests begin to choose songs that mean something to them as well.Hosting a Fun Wedding in Colorado Springs
Your big day will be made even more fun through the music that you choose to play. For many people, music communicates with them on an emotional level - and since your wedding is most likely going to be very emotional, you can speak the language that they will love.
