DopaBeat Guide
Let Your Tokyo Wedding Guests Request the Soundtrack
Quick answer
For weddings in Tokyo, 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.
Known for a live-music circuit from Budokan arenas to basement clubs in Shimokitazawa, Tokyo hosts weddings where the guest list spans continents and decades of music taste. DopaBeat gives every one of those guests a voice in the reception queue — with the couple holding the veto, the schedule, and the do-not-play list.
How song requests work at a Tokyo wedding
The request line at Tokyo weddings disappears when the requests go digital: guests submit from their seats during dinner, the queue quietly stacks up, and by the time the floor opens the DJ is working from a crowd-ranked list instead of shouted fragments over the monitors.
Your first dance stays untouchable
Nothing plays at your Tokyo reception without a yes. Every request lands in front of the DJ for approval, the do-not-play list is enforced with a silent decline, and awkward picks vanish without embarrassing the guest who sent them. Influence for the room, veto for the couple.
No hired DJ? Your Tokyo reception still swings
Self-DJed weddings in Tokyo usually run on one long playlist and a prayer. DopaBeat is sturdier: a trusted friend takes the DJ role, guests keep the queue full all night, and votes do the crowd-reading. The friend just approves and reorders between toasts — a job you can do holding a champagne glass.
Setting up before your Tokyo wedding day
The prep for a Tokyo wedding takes an evening: download DopaBeat free, create the party, test the QR with your own phone, and brief your DJ on the do-not-play list. Guests need zero preparation — a camera scan puts them in the queue.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can guests at our Tokyo 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 Tokyo 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 Tokyo 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 Tokyo 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 Tokyo?
Yes — the DJ gets a live, vote-ranked request list instead of interruptions at the booth, and keeps full control over what actually plays.
