WEDDING MUSIC FOR YOU

I am available to play for your wedding in Metropolitan Melbourne in general. 

Every now and then, the most embarrassing thing happens to someone who chose to play a CD or mp3 files for a part of the ceremony - the track just won't play!  Well, it would be much better to have a real person around to spare those moments. One of my most vivid recollections is that one couple decided they didn't want me at all whether on the piano or the organ, in the end the bride somehow decided that she should at least walk down the aisle with one piece of live music - the only reason why I was even there on the day! The hour arrived and the groom discovered that he had completely forgotten to bring their pre-recorded music for the rest of the ceremony!  They were lucky that I was there!
