"Guess the Song Quiz: Let Guests Predict the Entrance BGM Instead of Dress Colors!" 🎶

If You're Particular About BGM, You Should Try a "Song Guessing Quiz"*
Here's an idea recommended for brides who are particular about BGM and love music for their wedding reception.
It's the "Song Guessing Quiz"*
Similar to a colored dress guessing quiz where guests vote on what color the bride's dress will be,
① Have guests guess the song that will be played during the reception at the welcome space during the reception
② Give prizes to those who guess correctly
This is an interactive event for guests.
The Re-Entrance Song After the Outfit Change is the Standard*
There are many types of BGM played at the reception, but a standard for guests to guess is the re-entry song after the outfit change♩
It's a moment when all guests are paying attention, and you can easily transition into revealing the correct answer and giving prizes right after,
So having guests guess the re-entry song makes the most sense*
What Are the Points and Precautions?
Here are some important points to consider when conducting the re-entry BGM song guessing quiz.
Choose well-known songs that most people of various generations are somewhat familiar with as options*
If you have too many obscure songs that people don’t know, they might end up guessing randomly without any meaningful selection.
(This would make the moment of the re-entry less exciting since guests wouldn't be eager to hear what song is playing!)
Therefore, let’s choose songs that everyone has heard of, ones that make them think, “Oh, that one!”*
Additionally, it's a good idea to write a little story or tidbit related to the song in the voting space as hints.
“This is the bride's favorite band♡”
“This is our go-to song that we always play on our drive dates♩”
“But really, when you think of weddings, it has to be this song♡”
Having comments like these can also serve as an introduction for the bride and groom, making it more entertaining.
If You Prepare Glow Sticks, It Might Feel Like a Live Event*
The standard way of conducting the song guessing quiz is to have guests write their names on voting papers and put them in a box with the number they guess,
but it's also recommended to add glow sticks*
Separate the glow sticks by color for each song, and have everyone wave them during the re-entry.
When you dim the lights in the venue, it will feel just like a concert!♡
Everyone will probably be waving their glow sticks while humming along to the song that’s playing.
