The Importance of Customized Wedding Music
I’m a professional wedding pianist based in St. Louis. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from performing at hundreds of weddings, it’s that music is a powerful way to set the tone for your special day. Whether you’re dreaming of an elegant ceremony or a lively cocktail hour, customized wedding music is the key to creating the perfect atmosphere.
Crafting the Perfect Ceremony: Tailoring Music to Your Vision
As your wedding pianist, I understand that your special day is unique and personal. That’s why I take pride in offering a bespoke service that is tailored to your individual needs and requirements. Whether you envision a grand and dramatic entrance, a romantic ceremony, or a lively and upbeat reception, I am here to help you achieve your dream wedding soundtrack.
I have years of experience performing at weddings of all sizes and styles, and I am well-versed in a variety of musical genres. From classical pieces by Bach and Beethoven to jazz standards by Gershwin and Ellington, I can create a sophisticated and elegant atmosphere that will impress your guests. If you prefer a more modern style, I can also play contemporary hits by artists like Adele, Ed Sheeran, and Bruno Mars. Whatever your taste, I am committed to providing high-quality music that will enhance your wedding day.
As a wedding pianist, my goal is to bring your vision to life. I offer a wide range of musical options, from classical piano to jazz and pop sets. One of my favorite parts of the process is helping couples select songs that reflect their personalities and love story. Whether it’s a timeless classic or a contemporary hit, I’ll work with you to create a playlist that resonates with you and your guests. I have a repertoire site dedicated to 21 real weddings that I have performed at. The site includes samples and can serve as a great source of inspiration for song choices based on the venue and style preferences. You can see what other couples have chosen and use it as a palette of ideas for your own wedding.
Ensemble Options: Exploring Unique Musical Combinations
Looking to add a little something extra to your ceremony or cocktail hour? I’ve got you covered! In addition to solo piano, I offer unique ensemble options like the HämmerString Cello/Piano duo for ceremonies and cocktails, and the Frontenac Jazz Piano Trio for cocktails and receptions. Each ensemble has its own mature, signature sound that’s sure to impress.
Communication is Key: Collaborating with Your Pianist
I believe that communication is the foundation of a successful collaboration. From our initial consultation to the big day, I’ll be there to answer your questions, offer guidance, and ensure that everything goes smoothly. My extensive musical training and experience performing at countless weddings have taught me the importance of being responsive and attentive to each couple’s needs. Rest assured, I’m committed to delivering a high-quality, stress-free performance that you’ll cherish for years to come.
