Wedding DJ Song Request Collector

A good wedding song-request form is deliberately small. The goal is not to collect every song a guest has ever liked; it is to capture useful preferences while making the couple’s own music instructions easy for the DJ to prioritize.

How this works

The generator combines the selected event, request limit, and two optional instruction sections into plain text that can be printed, shared, or pasted into another document. Nothing is stored by this page.

Worked examples

Simple form

Choose Reception, one request, must-play on, do-not-play off to get a compact one-request sheet.

Detailed music form

Choose Reception, five requests, and enable both must-play and do-not-play sections for a fuller guest form.

Common mistakes

Limits of the estimate

This is a form generator, not a submission system. It does not create accounts, save responses to a database, or connect to Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, or DJ software.

Frequently asked questions

How do I collect wedding song requests?

Use a simple form that limits requests and separates ordinary requests from must-play and do-not-play instructions.

Should wedding guests request songs?

They can, but the couple and DJ should retain final control over what actually gets played.

How many wedding song requests should each guest get?

One to three keeps the form manageable; the tool also offers five for detailed collections.

Should I include a must-play list?

Yes when there are songs that matter to the couple and should be clearly distinguished from guest requests.

How do I stop unwanted wedding songs?

Use a separate do-not-play section so the DJ can scan exclusions quickly.
