Ceremony
For our pre-ceremony and ceremony we are going to have a steel drum duo playing. I would like to have them play "I can't Help Falling in Love With You" and then "Fur Elise" while guests are sitting. Then "Canon in D" for MOH's and the Bridal March for me! We haven't decided yet what to do for our recessional song. For our cocktail reception we would like the steel drum players continue through playing the typical island favorites, anything Bob Marley, "Margaritaville", "Kokomo", "Over the Rainbow"....The usuals.
Reception
I originally thought about just using my ipod for our reception but then there would be no one to make sure that everything flows well, besides me! I want to be able to enjoy my reception and not worry about intoductions, timing dances, making sure the right songs are on when and cake cutting. So I think we are going to get a DJ in order to ensure everything flows well still.
