Music and celebrating go hand in hand, and I would love to help you celebrate your wedding or special occasion! I am prompt, professional, and prepared, not to mention I have over a decade of music and event planning experience under my belt. Please inquire for availability - custom songwriting is also available!
Why Me?
Because I am a songwriter, I try to focus on selecting not only well-known songs, but well-written songs. Of course, you will find some obligatory often-requested party songs in my sample list below, but I really love playing songs with substance. If you care more about lyrics than the latest upbeat radio hit, I'm your girl.
If you don't see a song you want on the list below, I'm happy to learn up to 2 songs for your event at no charge (with reasonable notice).
I also offer custom songwriting services!

What's My Style/Vibe?
Think chill. I've got a vintage vibe and sweet/sultry song renditions that bring a classy quality to your event without overpowering it. I'm there to sing some groovy songs, not to be the main attraction or take away attention from the guests of honor.
Weddings: I am available for guest arrival, ceremonies and cocktail hours.
Private/Corporate Events: I am available for networking receptions, cocktail receptions, background music for dinner, etc.

What About Sound?
Sound for a wedding or event is one of those things that should be discussed on a case by case basis because a lot of variables are involved (location, number of guests, etc.). In many cases, vendors can work together to ensure that you receive quality sound services that won't break the bank. Shoot me an email and we'll chat about it in detail!

Above rates are general/ballpark.

Inquire directly for out of state, multi-function, and/or overnight event rates.
Budgets: As a former corporate event planner, I'm familiar with trying to pull off champagne dreams on a beer budget. I am more than happy to work within your budget as my schedule permits. I always want to say YES and make your planning process as easy as possible! I know weddings/events can be overwhelmingly expensive, and I don't want money to be the factor that deters you from hiring me. But please do bear in mind this is how I earn a living. If you are finding yourself in a budget crisis and need to ask me to lower my rates, that's totally ok, but I hope you will also consider asking other vendors to do the same (maybe starting with the bigger companies who can absorb the loss of a couple hundred bucks a little bit easier than us indie/sole proprietor types). Thank you for understanding!
