We're having a jazz trio - 3 members from the band we're using for the reception. LOVE the idea of a steel band...that was something I was originally interested in.

Re: Coctail Hour Music

we had thought of doing 80's music for the CH hour...but we want to hear it too! So we might do upbeat Jazz and big band music to get everyone rarin' to go and do the 80's music at dinner!

I'm having a Steel drum band for an hour and 1/2. That will be my favorite part of the evening! Nothing but fun summer drinks and great music - I can't wait!!!!

Re: Coctail Hour Music

Hi, I am not to sure if you have your dj or not but the dj that we are using is called bravura and they have both the jazz trio and the island music. It is a little expensive to get it added to the coctail hour (either $600 or $800 for the hour).
I think their website is www.bravura.us.

we're using the guitarist from our band for the hour - he plays a lot of beatles music.
my cousin had it at his wedding and it was very nice in the background
