We're getting married at The Elms and will be having our ceremony & reception there. I've been trying to figure out a time line in terms of music. We'd like to book string musicians for the pre/ceremony from 5-6pm. And we'd like to have a Brass Band play for the last 2-3hours (7-10pm) to end with our 2nd line around the venue. I guess the question being will a DJ come on for just an hour from 6-7pm (to do introductions, first dance, etc) or does it make more sense to have a gap of no music (or IPOD) from 6-7pm while everyone cocktails and then have the brass band do our 1st dances and introductions at 7pm even though we'll kind of already be in the mix? Any advice welcome!!

Re: Is it too crazy to have ceremony musicians, a DJ and a Brass Band??
GL!
Then we scored REBIRTH BRASS BAND to play for the last two hours of our reception. After that, they are coming down to the FQ with us for our 2nd Line. Now I can't speak for every brass band out there (b/c they do differ in style, tempo, etc.) but to see Rebirth play for two hours? Not enough time :-)
