Welcome to the world of ‘no limits entertainment!’
This is a classic scene from “The Scent of a Woman.” Al Pacino’s character is blind. That doesn’t stop him from dazzling a young woman on the dance floor with a tango. She voices her concerns about making a mistake, which prompts Pacino to utter that famous line in the headline above. Here’s your takeaway: If you are planning a wedding, there is only one major mistake you can make, and that is to scrimp on the entertainment.
Seriously. Watch the video below as Pacino deftly guides the young woman, played by Gabrielle Anwar, through the intricacies of the tango even though she has never danced it in her life. The imperfections of her dance are invisible because Pacino knows exactly what he is doing and, as a result, he makes her look wonderful.
No limits entertainment!
That is what Scott Stevens Entertainment does for you: no limits entertainment that makes your wedding look and feel wonderful. Entertainment is the great equalizer at weddings.

Let’s go back to the Pacino video above. Did you notice the musicians? Very nice, except that 2 out of 3 brides prefer a DJ to live musicians according to a survey done by The Knot. There are good reasons why, beginning with price. DJ entertainment is affordable for everyone. And Scott Stevens Entertainment offers enhancements like lighting and photo booth that takes your celebration to a no limits level that makes the video above look like a bingo game at the old folk’s home.
No limits: we play any style of music!
There’s more. We can play more than tango music. In fact, we can play about anything you’d like. But if you like tango, you’re not limited to what a few string players with an accordion player can play. With Scott Stevens Entertainment, the sky’s the limit.
Do you like the tango music of the Italian chanteuse, In-Grid? Okay, you’ve got it!
How about a little Julie Iglesias? No problem!

One of the greatest speeches in American history, the Gettysburg Address (re-enacted in the video above), took but two minutes to deliver. And yet a recent bride writing to an advice columnist mentioned that her future in-laws gave a 20 minute wedding ‘speech,’ a real no-no. Even Martin Luther King’s iconic “I Have a Dream”…

Discussions on how to give a wedding toast typically focus on younger couples in their twenties or early thirties. Young love is especially passionate, often reflected in the toasts themselves.

Netflix released another wedding-themed movie, Mother of the Bride, starring Brooke Shields. It follows right on the heals of Irish Wish, starring Lindsay Lohan, released just a few months earlier. Although wedding movies can be endlessly fun, Mother of the Bride was haltingly boring. The premise: Emma (Miranda Cosgrove) springs on her mom, Lana, (portrayed…

On Monday, your co-work Susie asks you what time is your wedding. On Tuesday, childhood friend Mindy calls and asks what the dress code is. On Wednesday, Aunt Martha calls and asks what hotel to stay at. How do you cut down on all of these calls? Your wedding website. Yes, your website is a…
The quick answer is no. You should not bake your own wedding cake. A Florida bride who DID bake her own wedding cake last year created a social media firestorm with her home-made five tier wedding cake. Lilly Mendoza decided to bake her own cake for a simple reason: she wanted to, and she knew…
Should a wedding invitation be viewed as an invoice? Of course not, but it’s hard to think otherwise when couples ask for cash wedding gifts instead of traditional, tangible gifts like china, toasters, and bath towels. Some wedding couples grouse that their cost per wedding guest is x dollars each, so the gift they receive…
Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeren are two of the biggest music stars of the era. Nonetheless, a long dead rock legend headlines the list of top first dance songs of 2023. Yes, Elvis Presley’s 1961 hit love song, “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” knocked Ed Sheeren’s “Perfect” off the top of the list, according to…
This is a wedding blog. Love songs play an important role in the overall scheme of wedding entertainment, especially when it comes to the first dance. Interestingly, Billboard Magazine said fewer love songs are being written these days when compared to pop songs of the 20th century. This should concern all of us. As music…
