Destination Wedding New York City

NYC Destination Wedding at The Peninsula Hotel for a Canadian Bride

Wedding Profiled by Style Me Pretty ~ The Peninsula Hotel Lobby

An Alberta, Canada bride who always envisioned a New York City wedding had all of her wishes granted at the stunningly picturesque Peninsula Hotel. Star Talent provided the Wedding Ceremony Music and Reception Music Band at both of the Hotel’s Rooftop party venues, The Spa Terrace and The Salon de Ning. We can provide any destination wedding New York City every style of music, completely client styled from our full service music production firm.

Star Talent is the Peninsula Hotel’s recommended music service and we frequently are asked to provide music of various styles for “out-of-town” brides planning a destination wedding here in the heart of New York City. Working closely with the long distance Bride is a specialty of ours.

A Few Music Personalization Opportunities:

Selecting Ceremony Music

– A harpist or string ensemble that perform wedding processional arrangements of Cole Porter and George Gershwin love songs “It Had to be You” “Embraceable You” ~ is very New York

Planning for Elegant Dinner Music

– Favorites requests are New York Supper Club Style Jazz – Background Music that swings and creates a festive setting – “Fly Me to the Moon” “Autumn in New York”

Personalizing the Dance Music

– Playlists that incorporate a bride & groom’s favorite songs and “out-of-town” guest’s expectations. Yes, we’ve played country music for Texas guests, beach music for North Carolinians, New Orleans’ Jazz, Reggae for Caribbean party guests, bagpipers for Scottish families and even Waltzes for Viennese guests… the list grows with each wedding season.

There is a wonderful technique in combining music that conveys the quintessential New York City vibe while also providing party guests that have traveled a great distance, a sense of familiarity with their favorite dance music or possibly make a small gesture to remember their hometown sound.

Depending on the wedding couple’s musical taste, the Last Song of the Night request seems to frequently be either Frank Sinatra’s “New York, New York,” Billy Joel’s “New York State of Mind” or Jay Z’s “Empire State of Mind” ~ Michael Taylor
