For first level here's a three feat combination that will give you that at first level. It's marginally cheesey, but not too overpowering.
First, take magical training. It's a feat from "player's guide to faerun". It gives you the ability to cast three cantrips each day as either a wizard or sorcerer (you choose). Sorcerer is your best bet here. The minimum caster level is 1 for these. *
Next, take the arcane disciple feat for some nice domain (Complete Divine, IIRC). Specifically, one with a nice second level spell
Now, you take the precocious apprentice feat (wizards.com website, reprinted elsewhere). It can only be taken at first level, requires caster level 1 as a sorcerer or wizard (which you have), and gives you the ability to cast a second level spell once per day if you make a DC 8 caster level check.
Final benefits:
You can cast three cantrips (choose to cast themetically appropriate ones). In addition, you can also cast a second level spell once a day. Not consistantly (you're still denying your magical powers), but it's still pretty potent (bull's strength at first level?).
Requirements:
Three feats at first level, 15+ Charisma. Managable if you are a human and can convince the GM that it's acceptable to swap out for the first level fighter bonus feat**, or if you can take a single flaw.
Further levels:
Probably prestige classing is the way to go. For purposes of qualification, you can cast second level arcane spells. Find something that has its own spell list, or just gives nifty powers and doesn't advance casting.
*Unlike many similar feats, this actually lets you cast them, instead of giving you a spell-like ability.
**Psychic Warrior works for the feat too, if you want a blend of low level powers.
