As a professional DJ and wedding entertainment specialist in the Fraser Coast region, I've had the privilege of being part of countless magical wedding celebrations. One question I'm often asked is, "What songs should we play at our wedding?" Today, I'm sharing my insider's guide to creating the perfect wedding playlist that captures the unique spirit of Fraser Coast celebrations.
Setting the Scene: The Fraser Coast Wedding Experience
From the stunning beaches of Hervey Bay to the historic charm of Maryborough venues, each Fraser Coast wedding has its own distinctive character. Your music should reflect not just your personal taste, but also the magical atmosphere of your chosen location.
Must-Have Songs for Key Wedding Moments
Ceremony Entrance Songs
The walk down the aisle sets the tone for your entire celebration. Consider these emotional favorites:
"Perfect" by Ed Sheeran - Ideal for beachfront ceremonies, with lyrics that perfectly capture the coastal romance
"Can't Help Falling in Love" by Elvis Presley - A timeless choice that resonates beautifully in historic venues
First Dance Selections
Your first dance as a married couple deserves a song that tells your story:
"At Last" by Etta James - Perfect for elegant receptions
"Thinking Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran - A modern classic that speaks to young couples
Reception Party Starters
Getting your guests onto the dance floor is an art form. These proven crowd-pleasers never fail:
"Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd - Guaranteed to get guests of all ages moving
"Uptown Funk" by Mark Ronson ft. Bruno Mars - Creates instant energy and excitement
Local Favourites with Special Meaning
As your Fraser Coast DJ, I've noticed these songs always create magical moments:
"Down Under" by Men At Work - Perfect for celebrating our Australian heritage
"Great Southern Land" by Icehouse - Captures the beauty of our coastal region
