Is it worth spending the extra $ to get a singer or musicians to perform for the cocktail hour? I've thrown around the idea of either a string trio/quartet, or a Sinatra-style singer, but I'm not sure if it's worth the extra money. I'm not sure if people will even notice or care, let me know what you think.
I had a jazz band for the CH and a DJ for the reception. I like the idea of live music but I was too nervous to have for the whole reception. I definitely think it was worth the money. It added such a nice touch. If you can - go for it.
We had a DJ at the cocktail hour that played sinatra type music it was a very nice back drop..ppl at the CH are meeting at greeting and not really paying attention to the music..so I personally don't think it's worth it
Were having a band for our reception and part of the contract is that we get a keeyboard or guitarist or saxphone for our cocktail. We chose the keyboard. But then I had won a free keyboard player from a contest at wm so they added the saxaphone player in!!
IMO its worth it. The CH is a party in of itself and I know that our guests noticed and loved the live music we had during the CH.
I want to get a string trio or quartet for the cocktail hour. I think it sets the mood.
we had piano and sax. I though it was a nice touch, People actually commented about it.
