Heh. I'm not sure if this will interest you since you're on a short visit and I imagine you're aiming for de luxe rather than fun and cheap....

Two of the funnest evenings I spent in Greece last year were at Kira Niki - http://www.santorini.gr/companies/Fo.../KIRANIKI.html

It is a rather ordinary looking taverna in a kind of strip mall a few km outside Fira. If you think it sounds a little too low-rent for your honeymoon, that's understandable. However, I have to say that the food was outstanding and the resident bouzouki player was just a heck of a musician and a guy who genuinely loves entertaining. (Live music by Manolis Fitros two nights a week - so check that he's playing if you're thinking of going). Cheesy? Yeah. But fun....

Come to think of it, if he's not playing there, he may well be performing at another bar on the island. Worth asking IMHO.
