Does anyone have any recommendations for entertainment for our reception?
Our initial ideas included a violinist for the ceremony; then perhaps a piano player for our reception/cocktail hour.
Can anyone make some suggestions on what we should be looking for? We do not want dancing and just want to have an elegant 'dinner party' feel with perhaps classical music? Thank you.

We can definitely provide what your looking for ! We have many live options to choose from including HarpBeat , which is what immediately came into mind. Its a combination of a full Concert Harp & Percussion, really great sound, very unique.
We also can offer other live options including Mariachi bands, Sax players, Steel Drums, Pianist and more.Visit our Web Site to Learn More
I think the HarpBeat would be phenomenal !
Also, have you considered some type of dinner theater styled performance. We can help you put together a dinenr show that re-creates classic love scenes on the broadway stage, as well as in Shakespear. The possibilities with this are endless, we can hand pick the scenes which would include musical numbers ! ! This is a really exciting addition ! And very classy, and elegant while still entertaining !
Contact me for some more information, Im excited about the possibilities here !

I'd recommend calling George Nicols Music, a vendor associated with LIWeddings.com. He is a versatile pianist who may offer that which you seek. I believe is website is www.gnmusic.com.
