Hello, my name is Lori Randall with Simply Divine Events. And I am a wedding planner.
And I have been planning weddings and events for ten years. I'm going to talk about entertainment
ideas for you casual beach themed wedding reception. Different ideas there are for entertainment,
would be a band, would be one choice. And you might want to think about a band if you
are looking for a more casual, mingling type reception. You might want to think of a reggae
band. That would be sticking with your theme. Or just any type of small three piece tropical
band. Maybe your steel drummer you might want to be having at your reception. If you have
a group that really likes to dance and have fun, you might just want a regular wedding
rock dance band. And not necessarily keep it with your theme. You know your music with
your theme. Maybe your first dance could be something that kind of fits along with your
theme. Something a little tropical. And another idea would be just having a d.j. Having a
d.j. there playing all of the music that you love. You could have even a band and a d.j..
And when the band is on break the d.j. will be playing. Its something to kind of keep
in mind. A lot of bands, they are not necessarily your m.c.. So its kind of nice to have a d.j.
there who might be able to do your introductions and do your announcement of your cake cutting,
your first dance and that sort of thing. So its kind of nice when you have your band and
your d.j. there. Some people are just doing iPod weddings. And they are downloading all
of their music onto their iPod and playing that. And all of the music that they know
that their friends and family are going to love. And they will do that for their reception
entertainment. So those are some tips and ideas to think about when you are looking
for music and entertainment for your reception.
