Need music for wedding dinner - help!

[BMWBen]

So Mrs BMWBen-to-be has just dropped the bombshell "I want some music during dinner, can you sort something out?" and the wedding is tomorrow.

Cheers love!

Anyway, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Mood is fairly classic, with candles around the place, but most things I can think of are too depressing (Eva Cassidy et al) and I need something a bit more upbeat but that can still work as background music. So... Help! I'm fked!

(no Rammstien, Korn, Goldie, Wu Tang Clan, etc before you start )

(and I know it's technically breakfast )

Google 'Vitamin string music' or 'vitamin string quartet'.

Basically a string quartet who have covered a stload of rock music really well....

The Jurassic Park theme tune - I can't think of any situations when it wouldn't be appropriate

And "Apocalyptica" for Metallica done on the cello (without the words, so it's just the music).

I can recommend a good band specialising in electric jazz. Think Ceefax!

A bit of porno music would go great with your meal

Try Fourplay. No not with the mrs but on CD. They're a jazz style group. I love using it as background when i've got friends round. They've several albums to go at.

Have been at a wedding this weekend, where they played string quartet versions of classic indie tracks.

Don't know if it is the same bunch that LittleRedHead suggests, but it was a brilliant idea, and crosses all age boundaries.

Brilliant idea - love the idea of this and went straight to Youtube to listen to some, but in practice it's very very weak, and, dare I say, borders on cheesy in places.

Shame.
