5 out of 5

Valerie played at our wedding & she added such a beautiful touch! Everyone complimented us on what a lovely addition she was to the day! The greatest part of all is that I have always dreamed of walking down the aisle to an instrumental from Harry Potter and Valerie was able to put something together! A memory I will never forget! Thank you so much! You were fantastic

I'm so glad you enjoyed it Rebecca! Thank you so much for having me as part of your special day.

Valerie was incredible at our wedding service and it wouldn't have been the same without the atmosphere she created. I had tears in my eyes and it really made our service so special.

The music at our wedding really made the whole day. Many guests commented on the quality of music and the selection of pieces. In fact, it was our favourite part of a great wedding day.

This includes music before the service begins, music during the signing of the register, and music as guests leave. I can then move to wherever the drinks reception is happening and do a set as the guests are waiting for their meal.

Wedding ceremony + Drinks reception + Dinner4 hours

- Music before the service begins, music during the signing of the register, and music as guests leave. - 2 x 45 min performances at the drinks reception. - 2 x 45 min performances as dinner is being served. I can provide music for your whole day. I am a classically trained singer so I can provide classical music for your ceremony and then pop/folk/jazz music for the drinks reception/dinner. With this package, you can hand over the music for the day to me and not have to worry about hiring extra musicians.

Customer questions

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I am usually fairly flexible and if I am available then will do my best to work around you. However, it's important to note that this might not always be possible.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, of course. If you would like a DJ service through my PA then just get in touch with your timings and I can give you a rough price.

How much time do you need to set up?

I only need around 30 minutes to set up before a performance. However, many people like this to be done nice and early to avoid it interfering with guests.

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

This is definitely possible and we can discuss what will work best on the day together to create a set-list you will be happy with.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Of course. I bring all my own equipment and have a battery powered PA. So nothing is required from the venue. One less thing to stress about on the day!

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Yes, absolutely. It is possible to learn most songs but all that is required is a bit of notice. If it's not possible then I'll let you know in good time.
