Set the tone for your reception dinner
45–90 min · Dinner music is the connective tissue of a reception. The worst mistake is letting a vocal-heavy playlist compete with speeches and chatter. Aim for instrumentals at 80 to 100 BPM with warm timbres and plenty of rest between musical statements. Meloro can generate a continuous 60 to 90 minute mix in a single aesthetic, saving hours of playlist curation and avoiding jarring transitions between Spotify tracks.

Questions, answered
Should dinner music be instrumental?
Mostly, yes. A few low-volume vocal tracks sprinkled in are fine, but vocals at speaking volume force guests to raise their voices to talk over them.
How long should a dinner playlist run?
Plan 60 to 90 minutes from seated to the first speech. Meloro can generate a continuous track at that length, or a stack of 3 to 5 minute pieces you can sequence.
Can the dinner music include our first dance song motif?
Yes. Ask for the dinner mix to quote the melody of your first dance in one or two tracks. It creates a subtle musical thread guests notice on reflection.
