Wedding Music Guide

Are you available to play my Private Event?

I play all kinds of events each year (wedding ceremonies, cocktail hours, reherasal dinners private parties, etc.) Please check my Upcoming Events Page to see if I am available on the date of your event.

How Much do you Charge?

My basic fee starts $200. Sometimes there are additional fees for travel and special musical arrangements.

Can you make a special musical arrangements?

Although not all music translates well to solo instrumental guitar music. I have made arrangements of a variety of popular music and classical themes for special wedding music. Including theme from Princess Bride, Rachmaninoff Variation 18 and Elsa's processional by Wagner.

Can you accompany my Mother/Aunt/Sister/Friend when she sings a song for the ceremony?

Usually with a quick rehersal before the ceremony. Some highlights of the past: Carpenters: Top of the World, John Denver: Annie’s Song, John Lennon: Grow Old Along with Me

Do you supply your own amplificaton?

I have 2 amplifiers that I use.

BOSE L1 Model I Personal Amplification System.

Carvin Battery Powered P.A.

 

Can you provide Amplification for the Ceremony? I can provide microphone, and Microphone stand for Readers and the officiant. A wireless Lavalier Microphone is also available for a nominal Charge.

 

We don't want to hire a DJ or Band Could we use your sound system to play our ipods or computer?

The Bose system has a great sound for recorded music. Create a playlist on your ipod or laptop and have one or your friends be the announcer for the reception. If you don't have an Ipod we can set up a playlist on mine. $50 per each hour over initial fee of $200.
