My Set-Up

The ceremony and cocktail hour are usually in different areas. Typically I’ll play the ceremony on the beach, then pick up my drums/ukulele and walk over to the patio, where an amplifier for my background music is set up and waiting. This way there is only a brief pause between ceremony and cocktail hour music. Moving charges may apply.

Song Selections

While guests gather for the ceremony and take their seats I entertain them by playing acoustic versions of well-known love songs like ‘Over The Rainbow’, ‘Can’t Help Falling’, and ‘It’s A Wonderful World’. Sometimes the bride gets delayed and we have to wait a little longer. I have lots more songs to fill up the time, however long it takes. When the bridesmaids start down the aisle ‘Pachelbel’s Canon’ is the standard processional song. When the bride enters it is time for ‘The Bridal Chorus’, otherwise known as ‘Here Comes The Bride’. When the newly married couple turns to exit at the end of the ceremony I play ‘The Wedding March’. Everyone recognizes it. I’ll send you all the information you need to make the song selections. And with videos of me playing all the songs at actual beach weddings the process is very easy.

Special Requests

Want a special song and it’s not on my song list? I will do my best to learn it for you. But, it’s not included in my fee. I’ll usually spend 10 to 20 hours learning and preparing a song for public performance. The fee is only $100 to compensate me for all the time required. As you’ll notice on my videos, when I play a song it sounds like the song. It’s not just a jam session that kind of reminds you of the song. Everyone who knows the song will recognize it right away. That’s my style.
