Connecticut Wedding Band: Live Music for Ceremony and Reception

Yes. We play weddings right across Connecticut, including Mystic, the shoreline, New Haven, Hartford, Fairfield County and the Litchfield Hills. Mystic is about 1.5 to 2 hours from Boston, Hartford about 2 and Greenwich about 3.5. For Fairfield County we usually need accommodations, and your Band Manager includes them in your quote.

Ceremony music for Connecticut venues starts from $710, and reception music from $2,310. Travel to your venue is included. Book both together and a package discount applies. The price you see in the Package Builder is the price you pay.

As soon as your venue is confirmed. We're often booked up to 12 months ahead, and June to October fills fastest. Saturdays and fall foliage weekends are always snapped up first. Fairfield County weddings usually need accommodations for us, which takes a little more organizing, so the earlier we have your date, the better. And that goes double for a foliage weekend in the Litchfield Hills.

It depends on your guest numbers. A Violin + Cello Duo suits up to about 50 guests, a String Trio about 80, and a String Quartet around 100. For vocals, we bring our own sound system. We need cover and a backup in case of rain.

Yes. Strings, harp or an Acoustic Singer all carry beautifully to the back pew. It's worth asking your church about its music rules early. Hymns, candle lighting and Communion are all covered, and we take our cues from your officiant, so nothing arrives early or late. From the prelude to the cheer as you walk back out, married, the music follows the service.

Yes. One booking can cover your ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dance floor. Many of us play more than one role, and booking your ceremony and reception together gets a package discount automatically. We play your aisle song with the Sound behind you, carry the mood through cocktail hour on the terrace, then fill the floor. Your Band Manager plans the timings, so the day flows without a handover.

Yes. Tented receptions are very common in Connecticut, and we bring our own sound system. We need power within 10 feet of where we set up, and a flat, covered spot to play. On the shoreline, breezes off the Sound can be strong, and evenings in the hills cool off fast, so strings and harp need the same shelter as the band.

Yes. Choose songs for your key moments and we'll play them live. Our strings play from almost 1,000 arrangements written exclusively by us, and new ones can be added with enough notice. A new String Quartet arrangement may involve a small music preparation fee.
