Weddings with Sounds Sublime

Choosing the right music for your wedding can be time-consuming and difficult, particularly when you have enough to think about with all the details of the wedding. Whether it's a church wedding or an outdoors wedding (or other), music is not only a necessary part of the ceremony, it's the sublime counterpoint to the beautiful promises the bride and groom are making to each other.

Sounds Sublime are happy to perform requested items at weddings, but because we know how hard it is to choose the right pieces, we've compiled a list of appropriate songs for weddings (see below). These are mostly solo songs or arias, but there are also gorgeous duets which suit weddings. You can choose to hire Ingrid Heyn as a soloist, or Katrena Mitchell as soloist, or to hire Sounds Sublime as a duet ensemble for your wedding. Accompaniment is available in various options to suit your budget - pianist, organist, lutenist, or small string orchestra, or they can perform to a CD backing provided by Sounds Sublime - or they will be happy to perform with the resident organist of the church (one rehearsal is included in hiring price).
