Wedding Ceremony

The basic rate for a standard wedding ceremony is $250. This includes prior consultation about selection of music; arrival one hour before the time of the ceremony; 20–30 minutes of prelude music; processional, interlude, and recessional music; and brief postlude music as desired. Vocals can be included at no extra cost.

Attendance and consultation at the rehearsal is an additional $50. Usually this is not necessary, but many couples find it reassuring to have the musician participate in the “dress rehearsal” run-through.

Special Option

A piano and flute duo is available for wedding ceremonies at $450. This is a very beautiful combination, which enhances the elegance of any ceremony. We have a large repertoire of classical arrangements.

Cocktail Hour or Reception

Your favorite musical styles will be provided for $250 for the first hour and $100 for each additional hour.

Special Option

A piano and flute duo is available for your cocktail hour or reception at $450 for the first hour and $150 for each additional hour. We love to play in a wide variety of styles, including jazz standards and sambas, Broadway and popular songs, and Celtic, folk, and ethnic music.

Travel Rates

There will be a modest fee added for travel over 45 minutes from my home. I live in southeastern Massachusetts and am willing to travel anywhere in this area, from Rhode Island to Cape Cod and north toward Boston.
