WeddingDJ App Reviews

I used this app instead of paying for a DJ for my wedding reception that included about 40 guests. My husband and I picked put all the songs, including those with special meaning to us, those we love to dance too, and songs our friends and family enjoy.

Easy to work, could explain it to anyone to run. Couldnt play all the music on my playlist and didnt say why, but I didnt worry too much about it, and the day ran perfectly!

I absolutely love the app but even if you select cross fade to be off you still have to go into setting to turn it off the. Go back to turn it back on so it will fade for the rest of the playlists.

Anything thats DRM protected (about half of my library) wont work! From their site " If these songs are crucial to your event, unfortunately youll need to get updated versions of the songs through iTunes, or use the built-in Music player for those particular songs."

Pretty sweet app, worked well at my wedding in January. I havent used the app since but Im giving you 5 stars now because of the changelog I just read about not allowing any Nickelback. You just made me laugh.

Used it for my wedding last week in August, downloaded songs on my laptop synced them to my iphone, changed up the playlist to play approx every 4 fast songs to 1 slow song. Worked great!!!!!!! Love it prob wont ever use again but for only $5 when DJ quotes were hundreds saved a lot and got to download the playlist we wanted not including all the typical cheesy wedding songs. Highly recommend!!!

Several times the music just stopped playing or randomly switched to different playlists. Wish I had just used the iPhone player.

We saved thousands on a wedding DJ (and were spared lame music selections) using this app. Hands down the most important tech tool we had in our wedding. Worked flawlessly, flowing music without a hitch between ceremony, cocktail hour, first dances, and whole reception.

My husband and I loved using this app for music for our wedding reception. It saved money and sounded fantastic! I would use it again in a heartbeat!

Most of the songs that I wanted to add are blocked. It was a complete waste of money as I wont be able to use it for my wedding.

I used this app for my wedding and it was great! I like that you have to slide to start the next playlist so if you arent ready yet, the current one can keep playing on repeat. Im very happy with how everything turned out, and it was so much cheaper than a DJ!

Ive been setting up my playlists and testing this app, and have found it to be very intuitive and includes everything I will need to make my music at my wedding cohesive, easy to execute, and most importantly save money. Never crashes, which is my worst fear. The developers are super responsive to questions too. Great app!

Overall, I am very happy with the app. It has made preparing playlists for our wedding reception much easier than I feared, has several very useful functions, and is aesthetically pleasing as well. A couple of features that I would have liked to have: 1) More flexibility with the cross-fade. Specifically, the ability to pick different crossfade durations for individual songs, since songs have different lead-in and fade-out times, and a 5-second fade that works well for one transition may leave an awkward pause on another transition. 2) The ability to fast-forward and rewind songs, rather than just skip ahead or skip back. This would allow the user to hear transitions between songs without having to listen to the entire song first. Otherwise, an excellent app. Thanks!

I havent tried this with my speakers yet, but its been pretty painless setting up this app and playing back my playlists on my phone. While unnecessary to its function, I like that the app warns you of potential problems you might run into while using this, in the form of warnings in its Settings menu. Theyre things that you probably know to do, but may nevertheless forget when youre feeling a bit frazzled on your wedding day (i.e., turn on airplane mode so your music isnt interrupted, plug it in so you dont run out of battery, and mute the phone entirely when locked). Of course, this requires you to remember to consult the Settings, but at least you dont have to remember any other items. This app is very much a player, not an editor. If you go into it realizing this, then your experience will go more smoothly. For example, you can choose a song or a pre-made playlist for each section. You cannot, however, create playlists directly within this app, or -- my main gripe -- permanently edit existing playlists that youve chosen (you can edit during playback, but those changes dont stick). Instead, you must edit it in the iPhones regular music app. Then you must select a different song or playlist, then re-select your edited one, in order for the changes to take effect. I can see how this might be a good thing (e.g., you forgot that your app playlists are tied to the iPhone playlists and you changed them), but the app should let you know that changes to the playlist were not updated, because I didnt find out about this until I ran through my playlists a couple times. In the same vein, you cannot fast forward a song to the end in order to quickly listen to its transition into the next song... This app pretty much expects you to have everything locked down before loading them up. Secondly, in the Music Plan, each section is numbered... And so is every "wait" period between each section. I dont think listing the "wait" is strictly necessary, since this is the apps default behavior, and the behavior of every single playlist Ive ever seen (waiting after it ends; presumably, if you wanted it to play straight through, it would go on the same playlist). Moreover, the greyed out text and line separating it from the next section below are sufficient to identify it, so the numbers for each "wait" should be removed. For those who keep track of what number theyre on, rather than strictly the name of the section (we may have named something that makes sense to us, but not necessarily the person working it on the day of), it just adds visual clutter, which is a personal pet peeve of mine. For example, I have 36 separate items with the waits. Admittedly, Im sectioning- / labeling-happy, but I still only have 18 unique items. If I try to slide the next section forward too quickly, the music sometimes skips. Theres no real way to tell what "too quickly" is, as the bar for sliding is already visible. If you slide back to the previous section, music automatically plays from the beginning of that playlist. It should give you the option of starting back right where you left off, because maybe you are the person who defeats the idiot-proofing abilities of this app... Just sayin.

You have created a very nice clean application for weddings. I would like to see a feature where I can save the wedding, because I use the software to prepare for a wedding for my customers and it would be nice to be able to show to new customers.

Seems like a good idea, but I can’t trust my wedding to a $5 app. It crashed the 2nd time I opened it. I’m going to have to bite the bullet and hire a DJ.

This is an awesome app and Im surprised there are no reviews yet. My brother in law is doing my wedding music and I was so nervous about him playing the right song at the right time or forgetting to skip to the next song after fading out. But this app makes it so simple and easy. Im confident the music will turn out perfectly.

I loved this app. I did the music for my friends wedding and this made it so easy. Would recommend to anyone!

This app worked perfectly. Highly recommend. But...I deleted the app after the wedding and I still (7 months later) cant delete the songs from my iPhone 4. iOS 7.1.2 Has this happened to anyone else?

I have been emceeing weddings for 20 years and I have always been uneasy about flipping through the pages matching songs on the CD player and the computer with a timeline that usually changes by the moment... You app does it all and gives me time to interact with the happy couple. And if I need to make a change its easy... Keep up the great work guys and girls.. YOU GUYS ROCK!
