Wedding Ceremonies

For your wedding ceremony, whether you need one or two elegant musicians; a classical string ensemble of any size or description; an authentic Klesmer group; an angelic harpist; kilted Scottish bagpipers, a vocalist or even a gospel choir: we can help.

Wedding Cocktail Hour

For your cocktail hour, if you'd love to underscore the moment with a small, classic jazz ensemble or the elegance of a group of strolling violinists or string quartet - or even if you'd like the spicy South American flavor of a small Jamaican steel drum ensemble or a trio of Latin musicians performing passionate Gipsy Kings-style music: we can be of service to you.

Wedding Reception Music & Entertainment

For your wedding reception, if you're in need of a phenomenal band which performs favorite dance and background music for the tastes of all of your guests - bands of all sizes and styles for all budgets - maybe even the “integrated sound” with a club DJ or a cutting edge world music percussion ensemble - composed of musicians and singers who've performed with Kanye' West, Tony Bennett, Stevie Wonder, Elton John, Earth, Wind & Fire, in the Broadway cast of Billy Joel's "Movin' Out", Herbie Hancock, Paul McCartney and a hundred other major musical names: we're the ones.

Planning Ahead of Time

We are extremely detail-oriented. Great weddings don't happen by accident. Yours and your family's input is very important to us. If you are not working with a qualified Wedding Coordinator or Party Planner, approximately 4-6 weeks prior to the event, we will work with you to create a full itinerary for your wedding. All issues, from Ceremony through Cocktail Hour; Grand Entrance at the main reception through formal dances, toasts, timing of food service, favorite music... will all be discussed and scheduled. At the conclusion, we will generate a full timeline which will be available to fax to your venue, photographer and video company, in order to make your wedding run more smoothly.

Organization, communication and preparation are crucial to a successful wedding and we want to make yours everything which you, your fiancée and your families envision it to be.

It’s your special day, your wedding day. Tell us what you want to do.

"As the musicians began to perform, guests were drawn to the dance floor with more enthusiasm than I've ever seen. Old people, young people, tall people, short people, husbands and wives, parents and children, new lovers and old lovers were not just dancing... they were DANCIN'! Bodies that you would never guess could move with agility were doing things that would cost them in the morning.. but they could care less! Thanks again, Fifth Avenue. Flying you to Sun Valley for Jennifer and Kent's wedding was one of my smartest moves. You did yourselves proud." ~ Jerry Anches

"My main concern for our wedding was the band. Being in 'the business' for all these years, music was a priority. I know you said I'd be happy with the band but boy, were you wrong. 'Happy" doesn't begin to describe the way I felt. The guys were phenomenal. They played to the crowd as only the greatest professionals can. Instead of a 'typical wedding band', my guests partied to the hottest band imaginable." ~ Sandy Kelley-Marshall, 94.7 KTWV "The Wave"
