Why Toronto Couples Choose Red Soda

Choose the singer you love. Your Band Manager confirms your singer is available, then we build the band around them.

We're degree-qualified musicians from the Glenn Gould School, Humber College and Juilliard, and some of us have played with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Stevie Wonder and Ed Sheeran.

Instead of showcases, we film: over 30 hours of video in the Package Builder, so you can find the voice you fall in love with.

What to Know About Wedding Music in Toronto

  1. Arrive and load in. Ask your venue when we can arrive and load in, and where we park. Paid parking is added to your booking.

  2. Two venues? Allow time for us to pack down and travel across town, or book separate musicians for each.

  3. Check your venue's music curfew. Many venues finish amplified music at a set time. We'll build your timeline around it.

  4. Toronto Islands? Our gear travels by ferry too, so allow extra time. The ferry is part of our quote.

  5. Have a weather plan. Summers are hot and humid, and storms roll in fast. Amplified options need power within 3 metres (10 feet).

  6. Winter weddings are lovely too. The Art Gallery of Ontario and the Royal Ontario Museum are made for snowy days.

  7. Book early for summer and fall. June to October fills fastest.

About Toronto

Toronto is Canada's largest city, on the north shore of Lake Ontario, with weddings in galleries, heritage halls, the Distillery District and the Toronto Islands. Summers are warm, fall colour peaks in October and winters are cold and snowy.

Toronto Wedding Music: Frequently Asked Questions

Does Red Soda play weddings across the GTA?

Yes. We're Toronto musicians, and we play weddings right across the city and the GTA, including Mississauga, Vaughan, Markham and the Toronto Islands. Picture a String Quartet in the Fermenting Cellar, cocktails as the CN Tower lights up, or a Seven-Piece Band packing the floor at Casa Loma. Wherever you say your vows, the music comes to you, and your Band Manager plans the timing around your venue.

How much does a wedding band cost in Toronto?

Ceremony music starts from about $690 and reception music from about $2,500, and travel within about 30 km of Toronto is included. Book both together and a package discount applies, bringing the two from about $2,880. All prices include HST, and the Package Builder shows your price as you build.

How far in advance should I book wedding music in Toronto?

As soon as your venue is confirmed. Saturday nights are always snapped up first.
We're often booked up to 12 months ahead. June to October fills fastest, so it's worth asking early, even if your date feels far away.

Our ceremony and reception are at different venues. Can you play both?

Yes. We need time to pack down, travel and set up again, so leave a gap between the two and allow for downtown traffic. Or book separate musicians for each venue. Your Band Manager will help you choose what works best.

Can Red Soda play a church ceremony in Toronto?

Yes. Church ceremonies are beautiful with strings, harp or an Acoustic Singer, and we're happy to play hymns too. A stone church carries a string quartet right to the back pew, and a harp shimmers in all that space. We play as your guests arrive, during the candle lighting and Communion, as you sign, and for your walk back up the aisle.

Do Toronto venues have music curfews?

Many do, especially for outdoor amplified music. Finish times vary from venue to venue, so check yours early. Your Band Manager will plan your reception timeline around it, so the last song still lands with everyone on the dance floor.

What ceremony music works best for an outdoor ceremony?

Go by your guests: a Violin + Cello Duo for up to about 50, a String Trio for about 80, a String Quartet for around 100. Our instruments can't play in rain, cold or harsh summer sun, so give us a covered, shaded spot and plan an indoor backup.

Can we choose our own songs?

Yes. Choose your songs for the key moments, like your walk down the aisle and your first dance, and we'll play them live. Our strings play almost 1,000 arrangements, and new ones can be added with enough notice. Song choices are due 8 weeks before the wedding.
