Cocktail Hour Music

What is everyone doing to for CH music?

At first I was thinking about a steel drummer but if the weather doesn't cooperate we will ahve the CH inside and I feel like that would be weird.

Now I'm onto a saxophonist. I can't make up my mind!

Re: Cocktail Hour Music

We told the DJ to just play classical music during the cocktail hour. People are going to be talking so much they probably won't even realize there is music playing. lol

Cocktail Hour Music

We have a steel drummer for the cocktail hour, and when we booked our DJ had said that the drummer has done both inside and outside cocktail hours so not to worry if it rains.

Cocktail Hour Music

I want to do all sort of 1950s cocktail music like Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Dean Martin, that kind of thing. But using a DJ, for sure. I hardly remember any cocktail hour music anyway either!

Re: Cocktail Hour Music

i always wanted a steel drummer but because we did a mansion style wedding, it didn't feel like it went with the vibe of the venue...so we're getting a jazz trio or quartet (i can't remember what we booked haha) to play...we booked through LI sound

Cocktail Hour Music

We plan on having a string quartet for the ceremony...instead of hiring them for only a half hour we figured why not have them during cocktail hour!
