Questions for the owner

Which version of Can't Help Falling in Love is the first dance: the Elvis version or the Haley Reed version? Grace said to ask Graham.
When does Graham's entrance happen, before dinner or at another time?
Do you want clean versions of any songs, or any other content checks?
Should Sweet Caroline stay at around 9:00, and is that fine with your plan for the night?

What it does

Turns a client's music request form, however messy, into a one-page plan the DJ can work from at the event. It sorts must-plays, do-not-plays, and general requests by part of the event, and flags anything unclear.

Use it when: Use when a DJ has music request form responses from a client or guests and needs them summarized into one clear playlist plan, such as: summarize the music request form, sort my client's song list, or turn these requests into a set plan.
