Your wedding music needs to be perfect, and Wedding Player makes sure it is. Build your wedding playlist for every moment, then play it exactly on cue: offline, with smooth fades, and a locked playlist so the wrong song cannot play. Built by a dad for his daughter's wedding, and now available for yours. Wedding Player is purpose-built for the ceremony and the whole day: your own running order, your own tracks, perfectly timed. ▸ APPLE MUSIC, YOUR OWN FILES, OR OUR FREE LIBRARY Combine tracks from your Apple Music library with custom-edited local files (MP3, M4A, WAV, AIFF) in a single ceremony playlist. Most apps make you pick one. Wedding Player lets you mix both. Trimmed a special version in GarageBand? It sits right alongside your Apple Music tracks. Or start from Wedding Player Originals, a free built-in library of 40 ceremony tracks you can download inside the app. ▸ MORE THAN A PLAYLIST: A CEREMONY TIMELINE Create named moments (Walking Down The Aisle, Signing The Register, Leaving), each with its own playlist, fade settings, and transition controls. Advance between moments with a single tap and a smooth fade-out countdown. ▸ BACKED UP AND IN SYNC WITH iCloud With Full Access, your wedding backs up to iCloud and stays in sync across your iPhone and iPad. Build it on one device and run it from another, and never lose your setup. ▸ GO LIVE: PANIC-PROOF CONTROLS Switch to Live Mode and hand the device to whoever's pressing play. Extra-large controls. The playlist is locked, so no wrong songs and no wrong versions, and there is no skip control to hit by accident. Switching moment, restarting or leaving Live Mode all ask you to confirm first. Set it up once. Press play with confidence. ▸ 100% OFFLINE Works in airplane mode. No WiFi, no streaming, no ads, no surprises. Local files play directly from your device. Rock-solid reliability with no internet required. Download your Apple Music tracks in advance using the built-in offline checklist. ▸ PROFESSIONAL AUDIO • Crossfade between tracks (1–10 seconds, configurable) • Gapless transitions for Apple Music tracks (native MusicKit) • Volume normalisation across all tracks (-3 dBFS target) • Per-track trim points with fade-in option • Configurable fade-out (2–15 seconds) with live countdown ▸ BUILT FOR THE DAY • Per-track or per-moment looping (repeat until you're ready to advance) • Tracks flow on automatically inside a moment; the next moment is cued and waiting for your tap • Screen stays awake during playback • Works on iPhone and iPad ▸ TRY BEFORE YOU BUY The free demo includes 5 sample tracks and a guided walkthrough. Build your timeline, hear the crossfades. When you're ready, exit the demo and start building your own ceremony, then unlock full access for £12.99. One payment, forever. No subscription. No account required. ▸ FOR WEDDING PROFESSIONALS Running multiple weddings for a living? The Professional Licence (£5.99/month or £49.99/year, with a free month to start) lets every wedding keep its own moments, music and timings, so you can switch between them in a tap. No wiping and rebuilding between couples. Built for venues, celebrants and planners. Details at weddingplayer.app/professionals. "I built Wedding Player for my daughter's wedding. Now it's yours." Don McAllister, Wedding Player Developer Your ceremony is the one part of the day you can't redo. Make it perfect.
