Entertainment for our small island wedding

My Sweet Amy & I are thinking about perhaps enlisting a few of the Love City Pan Dragons to play at the villa during our casual wedding reception. They're a bit more cost effective than hiring any type of reggae band, no?
I'm really looking forward to it!
So,
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance, and always
Smiles-
MJ

That would be a wonderful idea :)

Do make sure you let them know how long they are required to play in each session. I went to a reception (not wedding) and they had hired 3 Pan Dragons who were wonderful but they were "on a break" more than they played but that might have been at the request of the host (I doubt it as it was during the cocktail hour(s))

Also do check with the villa that receptions are allowed at the villa and that the area your rental is in allows weddings and reception as some HOA do not allow them - if the villa is in an area with a HOA.

Just some things to think about as we all want it to go as smoooooth as possible for you and there be no sudden glitches on the day :)

Oh, don't forget you need a permit to be married on a National Park beach - didn't know if you knew or not (I'm sure you did and know the in's and out's of licenses etc)

Congrat's again :)
