Here are the playlists we recommend you have:
Pre-Ceremony
Processionals
Ceremony (Songs played during Ceremony. If more than one, make individual playlists for those songs.)
Recessional
Cocktails
Introductions
Cake Cutting
Dinner
First Dance
Father/Daughter Dance
Mother/Son Dance
Fast Dance
Slow Dance
Last Dance
And of course if you are having a Bouquet and Garter Toss, you should have a Playlist for each of those along with any other events you decide to have during your wedding.
GREAT TIP: Always get your music players as early as possible to the venue. This will allow whoever is connecting your player to the speaker system, time to get it connected, sounding good, and have some time with your player and playlists before the wedding starts.
Label your playlists with the same name and numerically. Example: Wed1-PreCeremony, Wed2-Ceremony, Wed3-Cocktails, Wed4-Dinner, Wed5-Specials, Wed6-Fast Dance, Wed7-Slow Dance.You can also create playlists in between like this: Wed2.1-Processional, Wed2.2-Recessional, Wed3.1-Introductions, Wed4.1-Cake Cutting, Wed5.1-First Dance, Wed5.2-Father Daughter, Wed5.3-Mother Son, Wed6.1-Last Dance.
