How to choose the perfect jazz and pop orchestra for your wedding

Are you ready for your wedding day with every detail planned out? Do you want it to be absolutely perfect and unforgettable? 

Consider hiring a live orchestra to add a glamorous and elegant touch to your special day. While many couples worry about the cost, there are various options to suit every budget. Imagine the romantic and chic atmosphere created by a professional jazz orchestra, enhancing your celebration.

Most brides opt for a live music during the reception, which is a joyful moment following the ceremony. The pressure is off, guests are mingling and chatting, and brides often circulate to greet friends and family. A live orchestra provides the perfect backdrop, creating the “soundtrack of your memories”.

Professional musicians can set a joyful, festive and refined tone without overpowering conversations, ensuring a pleasant experience for all guests.

So, how do you choose the best package? 

Start by asking yourself a few key questions: what is my budget? How much space is available? What type of music do I love? Answer these questions together to envision your dream event and make the best choices.

For those with a smaller budget, a duo might be the perfect fit. Our cozy and intimate duo packages, guitar and voice or piano and voice, create a lovely atmosphere for your cocktail hour. They are affordable and well-suited to smaller spaces.

Our most popular package is the jazz and pop orchestra trio, featuring jazz drums, piano and voice. This trio delivers the rich sound of a larger lineup with just three musicians. You can also include a double bass to form a quartet. The double bass not only enhances the music but also adds a stylish, retro atmosphere to your wedding. 

Consider the repertoire as well by asking yourself some questions: what music do I want for the cocktail and reception? Does it match my wedding’s theme? Will it appeal to all my guests?

Our musicians offer an extensive jazz and pop repertoire, from Georges Gershwin classics to jazz-infused current pop hits. We work with you to customize the music to your tastes, ensuring it perfectly complements your event. Imagine your cocktail hour turning into a dance floor with hits from Bruno Mars, Michael Jacson, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, Diana Ross, or Aretha Franklin. If you have a special song, let us know, and we’ll be sure to play it. We cater to all ages, offering something for everyone, from Prince for your friends to jazz standars for your grandparents.

We understand that your wedding day is unique and should be a magical moment for you and your guests. We carefully curate the music to match the overall atmosphere, ensuring that the orchestra perfectly suits your wedding and celebrates your love in the best possible way.
