Wedding Reception Music

Your reception music can be as buttoned-up or as let-loose as you want it to be. For a more classic, elegant feel, consider hiring a string quartet to play some traditional songs during cocktail hour and dinner. If you'd prefer to kick up your heels as soon as you arrive, go for a jazz combo, a swing band, or have the DJ spin some upbeat music.
