"It's just really fun to add the atmosphere to an event," Krysti Schey of Bluffton, said.
Krysti is the keyboard player and vocalist for a local band named 5 Myles High, a group that provides a little bit of jazz, swing, blues and Dixieland sound when they play at various events.
The group formed over three years ago when Krysti was asked by a friend to play some jazz at their wedding.
"I rounded some people up and we had so much fun playing at the wedding we just decided to keep doing it," Krysti said.
