How do you lay out a whole wedding day in a single setlist?
This applies to a wedding band in any country, and to what the UK and Ireland call a function band. Use labels. A label is a short tag you type on a song, and the builder can show only the songs that carry it. Label each song with the part of the day it belongs to and the day becomes a series of runs you can jump between.
- Create the setlist for the day. Set the gig type to Wedding and add the date and the venue.
- Add the songs in the order you expect to play them. Set the key, and a performance key where your singer needs a different one.
- Label each song with its part of the day. Type your own labels, for example Ceremony, Dinner, Dance early and Dance late. Give fixed moments their own label, such as First dance or Encore.
- Link songs that run without a stop. Choose "Link with next song" to make a mashup, and name it. In Live Mode the linked songs play back to back as a medley.
- Check the length. The builder shows the set's total minutes. A song with no duration entered is counted as 3:30, so type in the real length of anything long.
- Save it as a template. Next wedding, start from the template and swap in the couple's choices.
The setlist builder page covers each control. To work out how many songs a dance set needs once breaks are taken out, use the set length calculator.
A full day can need more songs than the Free plan allows in a setlist, which is 40 songs. Pro removes that limit, and a 7-day Pro trial starts at sign-in with no card. Pro is ₹3,999 a year in India. Outside India, Pro is charged by card in your region's currency: US$79.99 a year in the United States, £64.99 in the UK, €79.99 in euro countries and A$119.99 in Australia. Other countries pay in US dollars, between US$14.99 and US$79.99 a year depending on the country. The pricing page has both plans side by side.
What happens when the planner changes the schedule?
Speeches overrun, dinner starts late, the couple want their entrance song now. You do not rebuild anything. In Live Mode, open the setlist drawer. It shows the song playing now, the song up next and the rest of the order, with the same labels you typed in the builder.
- Tap Play next on a later song to move it into the next slot.
- Filter by label to go straight to the Dinner or Dance songs.
- Advance, and each signed-in member's screen moves to that song.
This is band sync, and it needs internet on each device. It syncs which song the band is on. It does not sync audio or match how far each player has scrolled.
When you cannot speak to the band, send a band signal: a silent coloured cue that appears on their screens, such as "last chorus", "slow down" or "key up". You can write your own cues too, for the moments a wedding throws up. Cues also need a connection.
Can guests request songs?
Yes, during the dance sets. Put the QR code on the tables or on a screen. Guests enter a name and a phone number. They need no app and no account. You see who asked, which helps when you want to call out a name from the stage. You accept, decline or add the song to the set, and the guest sees the answer on their phone.
It does not collect requests in the weeks before the wedding. It is for the night itself. Free requests work in every country. Tips and paid requests pay out in India only. Outside India you can still take free song requests. More detail is on the page about QR song requests at a gig.
Does it handle quotes and invoices?
Yes, in a basic way. Bookings track a job from the first enquiry to a confirmed booking. You can send a quote, an invoice or a receipt as a link, and export it as a PDF or print it. Amounts default to Indian rupees, and you can switch a document to US dollars, euros or pounds. The ready-made terms were written for India and mention GST, so edit the wording before you send one elsewhere.
If much of the night is Hindi or Punjabi film music, the page for Bollywood bands covers reading those lyrics in English letters.
Good fit
- Bands that play several sets across a long day
- Leaders who reorder on the fly when the schedule moves
- Bands that want requests from guests during the dance sets
- Bands that send their own quotes and invoices
Not the right tool
- Bands that need contracts, a calendar or availability polls
- Ceremony players who read sheet music
- Acts that perform to backing tracks
- Marquee and farm venues with no signal, if you rely on sync
