DopaBeat Guide

Let Your Porto Wedding Guests Request the Soundtrack

Quick answer

For weddings in Porto, 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.

Porto is known for a scene running from Maus Hábitos to Primavera Sound Porto, 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 Porto queue and vote from their seats while you or your DJ approve every song that plays.

How song requests work at a Porto wedding

At a Porto 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 Porto 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 Porto reception still swings

A DIY Porto reception with DopaBeat also survives the unexpected: if the vibe shifts, the queue shifts with it, because guests are requesting in real time. No pre-built playlist has to predict at 6 p.m. what the dance floor will crave at 11.

Setting up before your Porto wedding day

The prep for a Porto 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

Does DopaBeat cost anything for a Porto wedding?

No — free on both app stores, free for guests via the web. No licenses, no equipment rental.

Can guests at our Porto 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 Porto 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 Porto 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 Porto reception?

Completely. Every guest request needs DJ approval before it plays, and the DJ can reorder, skip, and silently decline anything off-tone.
