Outdoor Ceremony:   

• our instruments require some protection from sun or rain. A shady spot or a patio umbrella will do for sun, but for rain, a solid covering such as a tent or verandah is necessary.

• Please consider these circumstances and consult your venue to ensure that these options are available.
   

Playing Preference:

• Standing:  We prefer to stand we play as a duo, but when playing as a trio or quartet, we require chairs without arms​

• Wedding Ceremonies:  We prefer to play wedding ceremonies acoustically (without amplification) but we bring a small cordless amp, so that if the setting dictates, we can boost our sound

• Larger Indoor Venues:  amplification is usually necessary. If there is a disc jockey or a house p.a. system, we can play through their system if they agree.
   

Ceremony Rehearsals:  ​

• With over 20 years of experience playing for weddings, we do not attend ceremony rehearsals.

• If you have a wedding coordinator, (s)he is usually available to brief us when we arrive​

• We also speak to the officiant / minister when (s)he arrives, so that we know the format of the ceremony.

• If we are asked to play with other musicians, such as an organist we will arrive early on the wedding day to rehearse.
   

Breaks:

• We require one 10-minute break per hour of service.​​
   

Special Requests:​

• our duo instrumentation usually requires some rearranging of songs . For pop songs that are not in our repertoire, there is an additional $25.00 charge per song to do the necessary downloading and arranging of parts.
  ​

Ceremony Delays:​

• In the unlikely event that your ceremony is delayed, and we have another event scheduled, we will try our best to accomodate but are not obligated to stay after the agreed upon time.​
