How to Perform Music at a Wedding Ceremony | Tips for Musicians

[@dionnathanael9191]

Great video thanks mate. Doing my first wedding in a few weeks and there were definitely a lot of things I hadn't even thought in your video.

One of my best memories....I played a wedding for a Hungarian family (I think). The hook was, they wanted me to M.C. the entire reception. Introductions of the ""New Mr. and Mrs. Macdshgsdfihablehgdsjchbwejkfwqgflkewhfwblifhwbfliwufli!" It took me all day to learn how to pronounce everyone's names. There wasn't a single Bob or Tom in the bunch. So....When I finished the introductions I got a standing ovation! I only do wedding for Smith's and Jones's now! Great video, Thank you!!

Hi. RE: Soundcheck. I have done it with a long cable also, but now I am wireless. It is great, even playing with a group at a wedding recently it made soundcheck very effective - I could walk around and hear the entire balance etc.

😅Well done, first Video I've seen where the presenter doesnt keep running on, you've got it just right. Thanks alot. Dave.

Great video mate, love the way you did the video. I think you should keep it up as it will be very useful for other musos!

I am not a professional musician, but I do play the odd gig here and there at small festivals that I'm working at in a separate capacity. Two close friends asked me if I'd play the music for their wedding and, delighted, I agreed. I am so excited and they aren't asking for anything huge as it is a small ceremony, but I want to make sure everything is sorted easily so I can make it a good quality performance and I've never done anything like this before. I'm 3.05 in to your video and the tip about setting up shelter is already an enormous help. Thank you so much for this video, I am going to make the most of the rest of it now!

Hey Phil, good stuff on your channel. Wish you had more content up here. You’re informative and pleasant: hard to find in this niche of KZbin helps. Cheers!

Really loved these videos. Provided great insight on gigging smaller venues for a beginner. Would really love for you to come back and make videos, friend.

[@georgialewismusic9973]

So useful! Thank you so much for the insight ☺️

[@leannbarker2051]

I am new at being a solo acoustic musician, first year out with a possible wedding gig coming up. Thank you for the advice.

[@petersumner348]

got a wedding ceremony in a couple hours. Thank you for the tips!

[@naolaress6340]

It was really enjoyable, good amount of everything: song, explanation and footage 👍 I feel destressed now thank you

[@afalzon21]

This is all super great and helpful stuff. One suggestion though... Separate your VLOG and tips videos. The tips would be more helpful as a laundry list, and you can still use your b-roll from you VLOG with the tips videos. You also end up with more content that way. :-)

[@afalzon21]

Should have said as a "quick" laundry list... Like a minute per tip.

Loving your work here, my friend! Inspiring for me, as a musician wanting to dive in the world of ceremonies! Subscribbed!
