Theoretically, one should be able to create separate playlists for each part of the wedding, and then designate someone to operate the Ipod, and do the announcing. It seems like it would work, and you could have better control of the music.
Has anyone done this? Does it work? Or is it a terrible idea?
Re: DJing by personal IPod. Is this a bad idea?
Make sure that the person you choose to run the system is not just knowledgable about the equipment, but also enjoys public speaking and has a great personality. Even without a DJ, you still need an emcee to make smooth transitions.
Additionally, we're going to get our friends' input with the playlist creation to make sure that there's something for everyone. I saw this article on offbeat bride about creating ipod playlists, and we may try it!
This is a great way to save alot of money.
