There are many benefits of having live music in your ceremony:

 

1. It add a little more magic, and makes guests feel as if they are beginning the day with something very special indeed - a unique performance. Everyone loves live music.

 

2. Musicians are a dream to work with. We can incorporate all kinds of involvement - whether you want multiple entrances, cinematic vows and readings,  a bespoke mid-ceremony performance (perhaps to coincide with a ring warming) or a group singalong finalé.

 

There is a huge choice, depending on your style. You can include a singer, guitarist, pianist, harpist, cellist, drummers, or full strings ensemble. 

 

If you can't stretch to having live musicians, then we can most definitely use recorded music. I have professional Spotify account, which means I can download music onto a playlist for you, and I have invested in a professional PA system that I can bring with me for use at any venue - inside or outside. No electrics required. It has a massive battery and is perfect at small and large weddings (up to about 100 guests).

 

You should also consider voice amplification if your ceremony space requires it. I usually recommend mics for over 80 guests, if the space is large or in outdoor ceremonies with over 50 guests. I have 2 mics, and always recommend that mics are wired to the PA. I have all the kit, and there is no extra charge for using it throughout the ceremony.

 

My PA system (pictured) has inputs for guitars, keyboards, 2 x mics and an Aux cable for music players.
