Both of your weddings were beautiful and you both looked gorgeous! Since you both used Shelby and it seems like she didn't play exactly what you asked for, do you have any suggestions on what we could do to try and prevent that for our wedding in August? After Chelsey's review I planned on burning a CD of all of our ceremony/first dance/other big songs and giving it to the DoC to have on hand just in case. I hadn't planned on making a huge "must play" list, but now I'm thinking I will just to feel better about having a little more control over the music!Any ideas/advice/tips you guys have would be greatly appreciated!

    In Shleby's defense, she did ask me for a playlist, but I was never able to get her one- I just told her country, hispanic cumbias and hip hop. I did tell her 3 songs that were "must play" and she played them. I would make a list of artists you like and tell her to play those artists' genres. I messed up when I told her "country" but didn't specify that we didn't like new country.. it probably would have helped if I just listed George Strait, Brooks and Dunn, etc. I think she did well for how little we paid her and how little I had prepared her for what we wanted.

    I sent her 3 weeks before hand a list of all the father/daughter grandentrance first dance etc. Then a "Do Not Play" (the chicken dance, rap, or country and some others) I also listed artist we would like to hear. While I was waiting to go down the isle in the reception hall she was asking me what our first dance was, along with the other ones. I asked her if she had the list and she said she forgot it. I didn't have an extra list (stupid me!) She later asked my dad what our grand entrance dance was etc. She mentioned to him that she had the wrong wedding list (maybe she switched amberly and I's lol seeing Ididn't want country and thats what she played and amberly wanted country) She always had music playing, the dinner music was great, she did get all the major important songs right except the garter / bouqet toss and the last song when we were leaving. I think it's a great idea to have a cd and make sure you bring a list of songs as well, she can find songs online if she has internet connection at the venue. She did keep energy up, like amberly said. She will be fine, just have your DOC talk with her to make sure she knows everything and isn't scatter brained. GL let me know if you have any more questions
