This page and subsequent links are dedicated to helping you communicate your requirements for your wedding reception to us. We hope you find what you need here, but if you don't please contact us on 0401 193 231 or info@musiq.com.au

The Musiq Entertainment Wedding Request Form.

This document is the way that you communicate your requirements to us for your wedding reception and hence needs to contain all the information that you wish to communicate to us. We will assign your DJ based on the information you provide us and then your DJ will use this to prepare for the night and finally to refer to on the night.

The request form is a one page .doc document that you download from our website but often by the time you add everything to it we might end up with a 3 or 4 page document. This is totally fine. Feel free to edit it in any way you like to communicate your requirements. Often clients will add extra space for requests, reception schedules and other information.

It is important that you get this document filled out and returned to use at least 3 weeks prior to your wedding in order give us enough time to assign your DJ and for them to prepare the music for your reception. Once the DJ is assigned and they have prepared themselves we will touch base with you a couple of days before your wedding. Of course if you need to make 1 or 2 changes after this point in time you can let us know at any time - we just ask that you track any changes so the DJ doesn’t need to go back to the start with their preparation.

When filling out the request form, in particular for the dance music and background music sections, we welcome you to just drop in a Spotify playlist link rather than type in all the songs that you’re after. We find using Spotify to compile music is fun and easy, even if we can’t technically play songs directly from Spotify. In fact we’ve done some compiling of playlists ourselves that might help kick you off here.

We typically play around 50-60 dance songs at your average reception, and it’s great to leave a few slots open for the DJ to throw in other similar songs they’ll know that would work well. If you’re list is longer than say 25-30 songs we recommend prioritising say 10-15 “Must Play” songs so the DJ knows what you like the most. We also welcome a sentence qualifying your request selections which might be something like “I know this list is huge, we just wanted to give you options” or “Please use this list as a guide of what we want, you can miss things out that might not go well based on experience and reading the crowd and play other similar songs you know will work great” and “Please only play these songs and not anything else” or similar are all great ways for the DJ to know how to use your requests at your reception.

We are more than happy to attempt to source any song that you would like played at your reception so don't limit yourself when selecting your music. Sometimes with cultural music, rarities, remix's and the like we might ask you to provide some of the music or offer alternatives. We'll let you know if we need you to provide any of the songs you have requested when the DJ has had the chance to prepare the music.  You can provide the music in mp3 format with the recommended method being to send us a dropbox link to your uploaded tracks prior to your reception that way it is with your DJ before the wedding day and it's one less thing to worry about on the day. Please note we can organise to play audio CD's as well if we receive it prior to the night however not all of our DJs have CD drives in their computers so we can't play them if given to us on the night.

You might also want to have a look at our general policies with regards to taking requests and the censorship of songs here and let us know on your form if you’d like us to modify our behavior from the standard for your reception (we are more than happy to do so, we just need to make sure everyone is on the same page). We also often get social with the venue, your photographers and other suppliers sharing items on our Instagram pages and stories from events. If you’d rather we don’t then please let us know on your request form.

If you already know the songs you want to request, and are confident filling out the form it's time to go for it.
