Can anyone help give me some leads? best wishes Vikki

Unregistered	Hi Vikki Two problems here Vikki. I with my partner organise the largest wedding fayres in Jersey. I also film weddings so there is a large experience of what happens in the Jersey wedding place. I have also asked some of the music groups within the island. Result the cupboard is bare we just do not know of any African Bands. Secondly there is unfortunately a noise restriction for bands at St Ouens Manor & for any other similar venues in the Island. So you will have to be careful with the sound volume. An alternative would be a CD playing although it is appreciated that this is not very spectacular compared to a live band. If you give me a ring on 01534 482742 I can put you in touch with local groups who participate at our wedding fayres. Regards Laurie

I am aware of the noise restriction at St. Ouens but Nigel at Vibert marquees was saying that choral groups or acoustic things are fine - it's load amped up bands we'd have to be careful of. I'm thinking of playing a CD/ipod during dinner so I'll probably go a different direction for pre-dinner and look at one of the various string groups/bossa bassline type thing etc that I have the details for from coming going to various Jersey wedding fayres. Once again, many thanks Vikki
