You can try Charles Castorina, 516-599-1843. He will be doing my cocktail hour on 2/22. I got his name from another bride from the Knot. He played at her wedding at Chateau Briand. He plays at Norstrom's in Roosevelt Field.

I'm having my wedding at CB in November. I've been dying to talk to some other CB brides. What does he the piano player charge (if you don't mind me asking)? Are you using the Normandy room, and if so, what song are you using if/when you come up through the floor?

Thank you!!!!!!!!!

I'm actually paying $250 also. I checked last night when I got home. He is an older guy but we went to check him out and he was pretty good. You should ask him when he is playing and go listen to him.
