  • In this very unlikely scenario, we have a large network with very professional musicians, and we can engage a substitute player with only a short notice without compromising the standard of our performance.

  • There is no need for us to be at your rehearsal. We are experienced and will get information from you in advance, i.e. number of people in your wedding party, etc. We time the music according to your needs regardless of the length of your chosen music. Each song can be shortened or lengthened and will conclude at the right time for the ceremony to flow smoothly. However, if you wish us to take part in the rehearsal (depending on availability of players) we are happy to do so. Our standard fees would apply.

  • We are all acoustic and our sound can fill a large room with several hundred guests or travel a fair distance in an outside setting. If you desire amplification, you are responsible for supplying a sound system with technical support.

  • You are always welcome to meet with Wendy, our music director, at a mutually decided meeting spot. We like the personal contact, but with modern technology this is not absolutely necessary.

We can also provide you with references, reviews, and testimonials located throughout the website.
