  • One recessional, right after “I do”

Make it yours

Most couples choose our Ceremony & Cocktail Hour experience. Every package can be customized, and rehearsal attendance and amplification can be added.

Your setlist, designed

Music that could only be yours.

Our couples don’t choose from a menu. Together, we design a setlist around your story, so every moment of the day sounds like the two of you.

Your story first

We begin with a conversation: how you met, the songs that mark your years together, and how you want the day to feel.

A setlist, drafted for you

We draft music for every part of the day, pairing the songs you love with pieces chosen for each moment, from classical to pop.

Timed to your walk

Your processional is planned to your aisle, so the music swells just as you appear.

A signature moment

One piece that is unmistakably yours: a favorite song arranged for strings, or a surprise your guests won’t forget.

Custom arrangements

Walk down the aisle to your song.

Choose from 1,000+ songs, from classical to pop and film. If your song isn’t there, we’ll arrange it, as we have 125+ times. The Full Evening includes one custom arrangement.

“Walking down the aisle to it felt so personal.”
