Please remember. Your wedding singer doesn’t only work for an hour for their fee. They have to learn the songs, keep their voices in shape (daily workout), usually be in the church for hours beforehand to set up the equipment and do the soundcheck to make sure the quality is as good as it can be, then afterwards put all the speakers/mics back in the car . They also work with you and meet with you before your wedding once or twice giving their time to choose a setlist and make sure everything goes smoothly.

When choosing your vocalist for wedding make sure they have proper insurances in place, that they can provide cover (so that they don’t call u day before wedding saying they have runny nose and can’t perform and leave you with no music), that they have sufficient sound system in place, that (most importantly!) their type of voice suits you.

Make sure that the quality, voice type and attire is what you’re looking for and not necessarily the lowest price available. that €50 or €100 difference is NOT going to be even visible in your wedding budget and it well could be the difference between a non-professional who doesn’t really know what they’re doing but decided that singing for an hour would be a good way to make some additional beer money and a professional vocalist, who knows exactly what they’re doing.

Hiring a non-professional singer (or photographer – these days it’s so easy to buy an expensive camera and decide to be a photographer because an expensive camera will take great pictures… nothing could be further from the truth, but that’s a topic for a different post) is taking chances. Things could go well and the quality of services could be ok. But without proper training and experience, if anything goes wrong on the day (church sound system stops working, lights in the church go off, the weather goes really bad, you name it) – the professionals will know how to fix it and work in the changed circumstances.

Most people decide to book us, professional singers, and trust that we know how to make your day special in the best possible way, so you only have to show up and celebrate your love!
