  I have no problem doing the Ipod for the reception.  I think DJs are overrated and too expensive and as we are more having a party than a reception, I think it fits.  (Also no first dance, etc.)  But, I really wanted live music for the ceremony.  I am on a tight budget, and so we looked into getting musicians from the local high school.  Well, that was no good.  My FI and I are pretty dead set on the type of music we want.  We could have live music if we went with a piano player, but as we are having the wedding in a garden, I don't see how that would work.  Does anybody have any suggestions?

  You could rent a PA/sound engineer and have them set up a PA that would allow the piano to be heard throughout.

  We are having two friends play their classical guitars. Or, I had a friend who heard two horn players at a coffee shop and asked them if they were interested.  They were super cheap and everyone loved them. Is there a coffee shop where occasional locals have open-mike night?
