Having performed at countless weddings both Spanish and English, I've learnt to provide exactly what the occasion requires, whether following a traditional structure or a more relaxed itinerary.
Guitar, vocals + percussion and/or Spanish classical guitar can accompany any or all parts of your wedding day:
·Guests Arrival
·Ceremony
·Cocktail Hour
·Dinner
·After Party
+info on each section below.
Guitar, vocals + percussion or Spanish classical guitar to set the mood as your guests arrive at the venue.
A list of songs can be provided for song selection, but many couples as well as musicians themselves prefer to play to the room, selecting songs according to the guests.
Approximate duration: 30min
For the Ceremony, I will learn three songs of the bride and grooms choice, typically:
·Groom Entrance
·Bride Entrance
·Bride and Groom Exit
On occasions, the groom will choose to be waiting at the alter without a grand entrance, in which case the 3rd song can be performed in the background over speeches/exchanging of rings.
Approximate duration: 30 - 45min
Once the Ceremony has ended and the guests enjoy their apéritifs, background music can be provided.
Once again, a list of songs can be requested.
Approximate duration: 1h - 1h 30min
Music can be played throughout the Wedding Dinner, a mix of Spanish classical guitar and guitar and vocals for example.
It is common for speeches to take place during this part of the wedding, for which a wireless microphone can be provided.
Approximate duration: 2h
Finally, the after party begins! Upbeat music for all to enjoy. This set will entice everybody onto the dance floor and get everyone singing along.
As in the Guests Arrival and Cocktail Hour sections, a song list can be provided but once again, it is advisable to leave a certain margin of choice up to the artist.
The PA system can be rented for the duration of the evening for speeches or music (from a phone via bluetooth for example) if requiered.
