  • Choosing your music source is a good decision to make early in your planning. Here are some ideas to guide your choice:

    1. Wow factor : Live musicians are able to read the vibe of the guests and can adjust the performance to suit. This can be in length of piece, speed of the music and volume to suit personality and desires of the bride and groom. Recorded music is as is on the recording and there is limited adjustments that can be made.

    2. Budget: a quality group of musicians will bring you bang for your buck

    3. Space: picture your entrance to the ceremony with live musicians adding a sparkle to your special moment

    4. Technical difficulties: nothing spoils the mood like an uncomfortable pause caused by technical glitches / buffering, spotify ads compared to professional musicians ready to hit the right note at the right time

  • When using live musicians you may not have thought about the electrical equipment needed. Remember to consider these ideas when you are booking a group

    1. Acoustic doesn’t always mean acoustic: a truly unplugged group will need no amplification at all. This saves on space, trip hazards and hidden costs

    2. Amplification needs a sound check: dialling in the right level of volume through a sound system takes time and skill. You’ll need to budget extra costs for a sound operator and the extra time required to sound check musicians

    3. Getting the right gear: does your venue have good enough equipment for the job? A properly acoustic ensemble doesn’t depend on hiring a sound desk and speakers to sound great

    4. Outdoors wedding: a brass group is so easy work with in these environments. We use only our instruments. Take this into account to avoid the hassle of arranging access to powerpoints or carrying heavy amps from the carpark
