Mirage Big Band for weddings
is the San Diego band that does it all! Live wedding ceremony
music; both traditional and modern can easily be provided. Afterwards,
for your cocktail reception, our musicians play light jazz and
energetic music ...kicking your party off with an upbeat, festive
feel, making all of your guests welcome. There's soft, romantic
ballads for dinner ...making sure the volume is always low so
conversation is never strained or drowned out. The Mirage Big
Band then picks up the tempo with variety dance music for swing dancing, rock and roll and interactive
fun...getting everyone out on the dance floor.
As the premiere group among San
Diego bands, the Mirage Big Band will act as your master of ceremonies
to help keep receptions moving and focused. They can eloquently
announce and introduce your bridal party and family members,
as well as help coordinate toasts, acknowledgments and special
dedications. They have the experience and know the traditional
music dances for a Jewish wedding. Besides many Jewish weddings
and other mitzvahs, they can perform Jewish music as well as
variety dance music for your bar mitzvah or bat mitzvah.
All ages have a ball dancing
to everything from a waltz, foxtrot and tango to the jitterbug,
jump and swing dancing to the big bands sound. There is the smooth
romance of ballroom and swing bands dancing one minute, and the
wild abandon of rock and disco the next. Do the cha cha or rumba
to sexy Latin music. Take a trip to Brazil and do the samba or
bossa nova. See if you can remember to do the frug, mashed potatoes
or the twist to some rock and roll oldies. Brush up on your best
Saturday Night Fever and Flash dance disco moves. Slip across
the dance floor doing the Electric Slide or jump in the conga
line. There is always CD dance music provided during the short
band breaks so there is never a lull in the party.
Big Band Swing is hot again! Give any social occasion elegance and
class with the looks and sounds of the big bands. From swing
bands and dance standards that everyone knows and loves, to new
stylish renditions of contemporary rock and pop songs. Since
1993 Mirage Big Band Orchestra brings it all together
better than other wedding bands in Southern California. Their
list of credits and personal
references is extensive. The
band has a wide variety of attire options: elegant white dinner
jackets, sophisticated black tie tuxedo, snazzy sports coat and
tie and other tastefully coordinated outfits to blend in with
the theme of your party. Special requests are welcome. The Mirage
