Live Jazz Throughout Your Wedding
Ceremony
Create a beautiful setting as guests arrive and take their seats. Bayou City Jazz will provide elegant instrumental music for your prelude, processional, signing, recessional, and other important moments.
Cocktail Hour
Live jazz is a natural fit for cocktail hour. It creates energy and sophistication while remaining comfortable for conversation. A Bayou City Jazz trio or quartet will set the tone as your guests enjoy cocktails, mingle, and transition from the ceremony to the reception.
Dinner & Reception
Bring the atmosphere of an elegant jazz club to your reception. During dinner, we will provide sophisticated background music at a comfortable volume. As the evening progresses, the music can become more energetic while maintaining the refined character of your celebration.
Rehearsal Dinners & Welcome Parties
Live jazz is also an excellent choice for rehearsal dinners, welcome receptions, engagement parties, and other wedding-weekend events.
Our smaller ensembles are particularly well suited for restaurants, private dining rooms, hotels, wine bars, and intimate event spaces.
