Two entries ago, I talked about how we plan on using #Spotify to crowdsource our music. Here's the playlist that we'll share with our guests. Feel free to add/request music here!

Planning:
My fiance and I are looking into ways to incorporate tech into our planning process and we just discovered on My Sane Bride that Google started promoting their tools through Google.com/weddings last year. We already have Google Docs for budgeting and finalizing our guest list but Google provides public templates that you could use for Budget and Guest List that would've been very useful!
Music:
We read "10 ways technology made my wedding better, easier, and more fun" the other day and also decided to crowdsource our music list on Spotify so that friends and family can request songs prior to the big day.
Or if your venue is already using an app like Roqbot, you can have your guests download the app (available on Android and iOS) and request/vote on songs.
Wedding App (Invitation/Website):
Appy Couple was launched a few months ago with a bang and has a wait list 7,000 strong but we were one of the lucky ones to find out about it early on and get a membership. We're excited to use it to share stories and pictures, send online invitations, for guests to RSVP via web or mobile.
Photo Sharing:
I'm sure a lot of couples are frustrated that their photos taken by friends and family get lost and never get shared. There are apps like Wedding Party that provides a platform for photo sharing. Or you could go with Google+ Events to share photos instantly with the guests. The only tricky part is you'd have to incentivize your non-Google+ user friends to create an account.
