Hitting The Right Note

Hitting The Right Note

Q We're looking to host an al fresco drinks reception with a live singer, what do we need to bear in mind, so the performer has all that they need i.e. shelter, electrical outlets, level performance area?
A Ollie Wade says: The singer will require a convenient location to unload equipment, ideally with on-site parking or a nearby parking area. Outdoor setups should be sheltered from both sun and rain to protect equipment and the performer. Easy access to a power source is essential, and the singer or venue can provide extension cords for reaching more distant areas. A level performance space with ample room for the singer and their sound equipment is crucial for a comfortable and successful performance. Additionally, providing food and drink is greatly appreciated, as it can be difficult to source while on-site for extended periods. It's lovely to feel looked after and a part of the day!

Q What is your advice on taking the first steps in wedding planning?
A Vanessa Sergeant says: Your wedding will be one of the most important days in your life so it needs to be perfect in every way! The music you choose will include songs close to your heart and ones that when listening back in years to come, will remind you of the day you said "I do."

So, have a think about the melodies most meaningful to you both and at what point of the day you want each one to be played to elevate the atmosphere. Having a singer to deliver these just makes the experience that much better and more personal to you.
