- You may have a phone or email consultation to answer any questions.
|
- I’ll send you an information packet with a Wedding Sampler CD, a helpful worksheet and performance agreement.
|
- A deposit is required to reserve the date and payment is due two weeks in advance of the event.
|
For a Wedding Ceremony, |
- I arrive an hour before the ceremony.
|
- I begin playing Prelude music a half hour before the ceremony. This usually includes light Classical and Celtic music that’s joyful and appropriate for weddings.
|
- I play music at appropriate times during the ceremony.
|
| - Processional music is played for the entrance of the bridal group. This may include a separate piece for the seating of the parents and/or grandparents of the bride and groom, a separate piece for the bridesmaids, and the processional for the bride.
|
| | - During the ceremony I may play for your candle lighting, sand pouring or meditation.
|
| | - If you are having a Catholic Mass, that may include about five separate, religious pieces at specific times during the Mass, there is a $50.00 surcharge. A Catholic Mass will also require a consultation with your celebrant or music director.
|
| | - If you request a short piece (1-2 pages of music) that I agree to compose or arrange and perform for your ceremony, there is a $50.00 surcharge. Please note that due to my schedule, I may not always have time available to learn new pieces.
|
| | - Recessional music is joyful music that is played at the conclusion of the wedding ceremony as the wedding participants exit the venue.
|
| | - I usually do not perform an extended “Postlude” after the wedding ceremony. Unless you are being married in a large Church where it will take much time for everyone to exit, I find that at most weddings, guests will go directly to the cocktail hour or reception after the event. If you would like to book a cocktail hour with your wedding, this service is also available.
