COMMON QUESTIONSWEDDINGS & EVENTS
Before you inquire
A few helpful answers.
Do you only play modern music?
No. Modern pop is the main focus of the wedding service, but timeless love songs, oldies, classical favorites, and other styles can be mixed into the day.
What counts as a custom song?
A custom request is a song that is not already in my current repertoire and needs to be learned, adapted, arranged, or otherwise prepared specifically for your event. The $350 ceremony includes one; the $475 personalized ceremony includes up to three.
How does the live violin and sound setup work?
I perform the violin live, accompanied by tailored backing tracks for every song. Professional amplification is included in every package, with the balance and volume planned around your venue, your ceremony, and your guests.
How do you plan sound for an outdoor wedding or cocktail hour?
I bring a professional sound system and plan the setup for your space, so the music carries clearly at an appropriate volume. Separate ceremony and cocktail-hour locations may need additional setup planning.
What if the ceremony and cocktail hour are in different locations at the venue?
That is something I plan around in advance. The setup requirements and transition time depend on how far apart the spaces are and whether separate sound setups are needed. Those logistics are confirmed before booking the final event plan.
Can I request a song that is unusual or outside your current styles?
Absolutely ask. I will confirm whether it translates well to violin and whether a suitable arrangement or backing track is practical. Very involved requests may require an additional arrangement fee.
Availability & pricing
Tell me about the day.
Share the date, venue, and a little about the music you imagine. I will respond personally with availability, package guidance, and a plan for the songs and sound setup.
Every love story is welcome here. Proud to celebrate couples of all backgrounds, cultures, gender identities, and sexual orientations.
