FAQ
Questions couples ask
Can you learn our song?
Yes, within reason. One learned song is included in every package, usually the aisle song or the first dance, and more are $100 each. If your song won't work on acoustic guitar and voice, I'll tell you straight and suggest one that will.
What kind of music do you play?
Songs from the 60s to today, from Tom Petty and Springsteen to Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift, played on acoustic guitar with vocals. Quiet and warm for the ceremony, lighter through cocktails, and a singalong by the end of dinner.
Will you be too loud?
No. The ceremony and dinner are set so people can still talk, and I only turn it up when the room wants to sing.
Will you work with our planner?
Yes. Send me your timeline and I'll go through the cues with them: processional, signing, entrances and first dance.
Our ceremony is outside. Do you need power?
Not always. My speaker can run on battery, so a ceremony out in the vineyard or on the lawn can often work without an outlet. Tell me where the ceremony is and I'll confirm what's needed. For dinner I need a small spot and a power outlet within reach. I bring the sound system and the officiant mic.
What about heat, wind or rain?
Most Okanagan weddings are outside, so I plan for it. On hot afternoons a bit of shade keeps the guitar in tune and the music sounding right. If the weather turns, the set moves wherever your rain plan goes, under a tent or indoors.
What if the day runs long?
It usually does a little. I'll keep playing. Past your booked time it's $100 per extra half hour.
How do I hold the date?
A 50% deposit holds your date, and the balance is due 14 days before the wedding.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can. I only take a small number of weddings each season.
Do you charge for travel?
Not in Kelowna, West Kelowna, Lake Country or Vernon.
