Question Live Band or DJ for our wedding?

Hi All - thanks for reading...

My fiancee and I are getting married at the Renaissance in August 2008. Ideally we want a live band for our entertainment and we just need some help finding one!

Any suggestions or advice would be helpful... also, if you think a DJ is a better idea and you could suggest someone that would be great too!


Stay cool,
Patti

We used a live band Equator for our reception and a steel drum band for during the ceremony. They were awesome. Our family and friends are still talking about them 2 years later.

Renaissance wedding?

You got married at the Renaissance? I am in the beginning stages of planning our wedding (not until 2009) and I am planning on getting married at the Renaissance. Could you give me some insight into what it was like through the planning and the eventual wedding? I have not had much luck with communication with the on-site coordinator. Thanks!

Looking for a band for your wedding ..

If you are looking for a great band to play at your wedding reception and/or your party, ... please consider "Smooth Ryddims" ...

New name but very well known musicians of the island (Teddy Philips from The equator band & Michael Odor from the Tsunami band) .... If you are interested, I could send you a CD with some songs of the music they are playing .... or contact them directly on +297 562 1370 (Teddy) or +297 741 6111 (Michael) or contact smoothryddims@yahoo.com

Enjoy

Talking

I tried for months to get in touch with the Equator Band, with no luck. Once I had finally mentioned it to my wedding coordinator she told me that they are very hard to book because they have become so popular down there. We ended up going with the steel pan band for the ceremony and cocktail hour and Cyclone Promotions as our DJ (I hear they are great too)

Here is the website for Cyclone Promotions: www.cyclonepromotion.com and the owner Tino is also a member on here, so you can look him up to chat.

Thanks so much for the update. I have been searching the web for days and nothing was coming up for Dj's in Aruba. I'm so glad you have contacted me.
I'm going to check out your website.

Quick Question: Do you spin house music? My family, friends, finace and I love to dance and go nuts, like if we were at a club. Would you need a list of songs I liked played for that event?

I will tell my wedding planner about you, and have her contact you asap.

Thanks again,
Gi
