DopaBeat Guide
Let Your Galway Wedding Guests Request the Soundtrack
Quick answer
For weddings in Galway, DopaBeat lets guests request and vote on reception songs by scanning a QR at their table — no download needed — while the couple or DJ approves every track before it plays. Free on iOS and Android.
Galway is known for buskers on Shop Street setting the citywide soundtrack, and its weddings are no less memorable — until the request line forms at the DJ booth. DopaBeat moves requests to a QR on the table: guests in Galway queue and vote from their seats while you or your DJ approve every song that plays.
How song requests work at a Galway wedding
At a Galway reception running DopaBeat, each table gets a QR card. Guests scan it with their camera, open the live queue in a browser — no app, no account — and request the songs they're dying to dance to. Votes rank the requests, and the DJ approves what fits the moment.
Your first dance stays untouchable
The formal moments of a Galway wedding — entrances, first dance, parent dances, the send-off — stay completely outside the request system. The DJ holds guest requests during the ceremony beats and releases the crowd-built queue only when open dancing begins. Planned where it must be, interactive where it can be.
No hired DJ? Your Galway reception still swings
For an intimate Galway venue or a backyard ceremony, the whole music setup is a phone connected to a speaker. Guests scan the table QR, requests flow, and the reception soundtrack builds itself from the people in the room — free on both app stores, nothing to rent.
Setting up before your Galway wedding day
Have the queue open during dinner service at your Galway venue and the dance floor opens pre-loaded: requests stacked through the appetizers, votes settled over dessert, and the first open-floor song already chosen by the room. Playback syncs on the web listen page for guests wandering the grounds.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can guests at our Galway venue's terrace hear the dance floor music?
Yes. Playback syncs across joined phones and the web listen page, so guests away from the floor hear the same moment.
When should we set up the queue for a Galway reception?
Create the party before the wedding day and open the code at dinner — by the time dancing starts, the queue is already stacked and voted on.
How do guests request songs at a Galway wedding?
They scan a QR card on their table and open the reception queue in a browser — no download, no account. Requests and votes flow in from their seats.
Can we keep control of the music at our Galway reception?
Completely. Every guest request needs DJ approval before it plays, and the DJ can reorder, skip, and silently decline anything off-tone.
Does this work with hired wedding DJs in Galway?
Yes — the DJ gets a live, vote-ranked request list instead of interruptions at the booth, and keeps full control over what actually plays.
