Your Wedding - The Most Beautiful Day of your Life....
 
 
Music makes the moment memorable.... and when you hear that song again you remember those special moments.
 
Thinking of choosing between a Live Band and a DJ?   We provide both in one package and it is our most popular option brides choose.
 
We perform live classy music styles like Frank Sinatra and Michael Buble to create a unique and elegant moment for your event.  Elegant songs like "Unforgettable", "Someday My Prince Will Come", "The Way You Look Tonight" and many other timeless songs make your princess day come alive with live music.
 
Making this wedding experience memorable and unique is often a priority with wedding couples. Elegant Jazz adds an exceptional sound of soft romantic saxophone with a great groove from a jazz band during cocktails and dinner.

Add elegance to your event with the Jazz Band performing classic romantic jazz love songs for your formal dances making the event very special.

Cocktail Sax Jazz Band performs weddings in a fabulous way with a outstanding set of classic love songs and a great smooth jazz sound that keeps people enjoying themselves and the music.
 
 
Some special times to use jazz music to touch the soul are:
 
Rehearsal Dinner - add elegance to this event during the cocktails and dinner with live cocktail music performed by Cocktail Sax Jazz Band.
 
Pre-Ceremony - before the ceremony starts is the time when guest are arriving and the mood for the event is set.   Start the mood and environment with romantic love songs as a prelude to your special event.
 
The Ceremony - during the ceremony we can add the unique feel of live music and the sultry saxophone to bring the best romatic love songs to the moment.   We are hired for "Ceremony" music in mostly unique wedding situations.
 
The Reception - the reception is the most popular time we are hired to perform timeless classic romance songs from the Frank Sinatra era.  Live classic music adds an elegance not found with other bands or a DJ.
    The Welcome and Cocktails
    The Dinner
    The Formal Dances (bride/groom, etc)
    Party Dance
 
 
If you want to add a male or female vocalist to the band, we have several elegant options to help make this unique and special.
 
Music can wisk away your heart and make time stand still… enabling you to cherish the moments and make them last forever.

Music adds elegance and enhances the mood for your event, can also allow you to make special moments for special people.

Making it Unique
This last week I have had two different weddings want to add a Mardi Gras feel to their reception.   They both have unique ties to the New Orleans area and they want their Indiana wedding to reflect the feelings and memories of that region.   They want to use music as the method to add style and uniqueness as they bring that Mardi Gras feel to the event.
 
I don't advertise that we play Mardi Gras music, but about two or three times a year we play Mardi Gras events and have many of the popular songs available.  I think it is great that brides are looking at bringing in creative ideas to make a special and memorable event out of their wedding.
