What Makes Us Unique
In a nutshell
I perform songs from the 1920s, 30s and 40s. I like to think I bring a bit of Fred Astaire Hollywood magic and glamour to the day.
Why do you want to work with LGBTQ+ couples?
I believe in equality. Be who you want to be, love who you want to love. And if you're going to marry them let's make it the most fabulous day possible! I know that music brings people together like nothing else on earth and I want to share the songs I sing with everyone.
What is your creative approach to weddings?
I chat with the couple, listen to their ideas and we take it from there. Do they want the mood to be relaxed and informal or is it a party where there's going to be dancing on tables? I'll let them choose the songs I sing or, if they prefer, they can let me know a few must-have favourites and I'll put together the perfect playlist for them.
What do you love about what you do?
My job is to sing some of the most wonderful love songs ever written to two people making a lifelong commitment to love in front of all their friends and family. I get to be part of that joy and hopefully add a little bit extra to it.
What is included in the wedding package?
I have three packages:
- The Wedding meal which is 2-hours of music (2 x 50-mins singing with 20-mins break including background music)
- The ceremony and drinks reception. I do 20-mins of songs as guests arrive; songs for entrance and exit plus the signing of the register; 90-mins of music for the drinks reception.
- The evening. That's 2-hours of my music (2 x 50-mins singing with 20-mins break including background music) then 2-hours' use of my equipment to play your own music. I'll bring my mirror ball and mood lighting too!
I have all my own equipment including a portable PA that can be used outside without mains power if the weather's good. I also bring my replica wind-up gramophone with me to add an extra dash of style. She's called Gloria and on her turntable she'll have a special record with the couple's names on that they get to keep as a souvenir.Do you cover more than one wedding a day?
I never do more than one wedding per day - that's not fair to anyone - I am 100% yours for the day!
Do you charge per hour or per event?
I charge per event. We'll chat about what you want on the day and I'll give you a price based on that. If plans change and you want more time (even if you decide on the day itself) that's no problem. Extra time is charged per half-hour.
Do you need specific materials or conditions to offer your service?
If I'm indoors I just need space to set up and somewhere to plug in. If outdoors I don't need power, but some shade would be appreciated.
What forms of payment do you take?
I ask for 50% deposit at the time of booking then the balance isn't due until the day of the wedding. Most people pay by bank transfer, but I also take cheques or even cash on the day.
