    You can find detailed descriptions and introductory rates on my [Pricing] page.

  • 🎵 Can we request specific songs for our ceremony?

    Absolutely. I encourage couples to choose music that feels meaningful to them. Whether it’s a timeless classic like Canon in D or a piano arrangement of your favorite love song, I’ll make sure it fits seamlessly into your ceremony.

  • 🎼 What counts as a custom arrangement?

    Every wedding includes well-known songs played in my own expressive style — classics like Canon in D or other favorites are always part of my repertoire.

    A custom arrangement is when I adapt a song that isn’t normally written for piano (for example, a pop ballad, a worship song, or a movie theme) and create a unique piano version just for your wedding.

    In other words —

    Included: familiar wedding songs and standards, interpreted in my own style.

    Custom arrangement: transforming your song into a piano piece no one else will have.

  • 🎹 Do you provide the piano?

    Yes. If your venue doesn’t have a piano, I will provide a professional digital piano.

  • 🔊 Do you bring your own sound system, or use the venue's?

    I provide my own professional digital piano and portable sound system for ceremonies and cocktail hours. This ensures the music always sounds clear, balanced, and reliable — no matter the venue.

    If your venue or DJ has their own system and you’d prefer everything run through that, I’m happy to coordinate. However, I generally recommend using my setup for piano and vocals, since it’s optimized for live performance and gives me full control over sound quality.

  • 💿 Can you also play tracks through your sound system?

    Yes — if you’d like to include a song that isn’t performed live, I can connect a phone, laptop, or tablet to my system and play up to two tracks during the ceremony. This is a great option for things like a unity candle song or a special recording.

    If you’re planning a full playlist or multiple cues, I recommend having a DJ or a designated person run those, so that I can stay fully focused on the live music.

  • ⏰ How early do you arrive to set up?

    I arrive at least 45–60 minutes before the music is scheduled to begin. This ensures everything is set up, tested, and ready to go well before your guests arrive.

  • 📅 Do you require a deposit upfront?

    Yes. A 25% non-refundable deposit secures your date on my calendar, with the balance due one week before the wedding. This ensures I can hold the date exclusively for you.

  • 🧡 Do you also play outside of weddings?

    Yes! I can also play at holiday parties, funerals, recitals, and more. Pricing will vary depending on the required time commitment prior to and on the day of the event.
