DopaBeat Guide
The Wedding Music App Portsmouth Receptions Are Using
Quick answer
DopaBeat brings guest song requests to Portsmouth receptions the safe way: requests flow into one queue, votes rank them, and nothing plays without the DJ's approval. First dances and do-not-play lists stay protected.
In a place known for Victorious Festival weekends on Southsea seafront, a Portsmouth wedding carries expectations — including a dance floor that works for every generation. DopaBeat lets all your guests request songs from a massive catalog, ranks them by vote, and gives the DJ final approval so the reception never skips a beat.
How song requests work at a Portsmouth wedding
Every generation at a Portsmouth wedding gets equal access. The grandparents request from a browser without installing a thing, the wedding party campaigns through the app, and the couple watches the queue reflect the whole room. Approval stays with the DJ, so nothing off-script ever reaches the speakers.
Your first dance stays untouchable
Nothing plays at your Portsmouth 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 Portsmouth reception still swings
For an intimate Portsmouth 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 Portsmouth wedding day
The prep for a Portsmouth 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
Will guest requests disrupt our first dance in Portsmouth?
No. The DJ holds requests during formal moments — first dance, entrances, toasts — and opens the queue only for open dancing.
What do Portsmouth guests need to participate?
Just a phone camera. The QR opens the queue in a browser; guests who want voting in-app can download DopaBeat free on iOS or Android.
Does DopaBeat cost anything for a Portsmouth wedding?
No — free on both app stores, free for guests via the web. No licenses, no equipment rental.
Can guests at our Portsmouth 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 Portsmouth 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.
