Description

I would love to be a part of your special day! I'll help to make your wedding personal and memorable by playing the music you want to hear, from light classics (Pachelbel Canon, Jesu-Joy of Man's Desiring, Trumpet Voluntary) to contemporary and Celtic tunes or songs that are uniquely special to you. On a practical note, I can give a clear explanation of what to expect during a wedding ceremony. I can work with your coordinator or help you with logistics if you don't have a coordinator. Please call me for a free consultation.

After earning my music degree, I played in orchestras, ensembles and toured as a performer. Then I realized how special weddings were to me and started my wedding business in 1989. Since then I have performed at over 2000 ceremonies. I've enjoy playing at romantic, simple, hilarious, extravagant and transcendent wedding. I've even witnessed some remarkable mishaps that required all my creativity and imagination to come through.

Aside from weddings I also love to play receptions, parties, corporate events and any special occasion!!
