Description

This six-hour wedding entertainment package combines DJ, MC, and live cello performance into one show-stopping musical experience. Built around a Berklee-trained cellist, beatboxer, and DJ with twenty years of stage experience, the Signature tier covers ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dance set with a custom blend of live cello and a full dance-floor DJ rig.

What is included

Six hours of DJ and MC services, a main reception sound system, a separate ceremony sound system with a wireless lapel and handheld microphone, signature intelligent dance lighting (4 lights), 8 uplights, up to two one-hour planning meetings, and travel up to four hours roundtrip throughout California.

Live cello, beatbox, and DJ in one

The Signature package is built around a true musical hybrid. Classical cello can carry the processional and recessional, then loop pedal performance and live beatbox layer into a club-ready DJ set for the reception. Many couples use the cello segment for a memorable ceremony moment, then transition into a high-energy dance party once dinner wraps. The mix is curated and rehearsed, not stitched together on the fly.

Six hours of DJ and MC services

Coverage spans ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, parent dances, cake cutting, the open dance floor, and the late-night sing-along. The MC announces every milestone and partners with your planner so the timeline runs without awkward silences. Energy is managed minute by minute so the flow always matches the moment.

Main reception sound system

A professional reception sound system is included, sized for indoor ballrooms, garden tents, vineyard estates, and waterfront venues. Audio is balanced for both spoken word and dance volume, with separate channels for microphones and music so toasts and tracks both come through clean.

Ceremony sound system with wireless lapel and handheld microphone

A dedicated ceremony sound rig is included with a wireless lapel mic for the officiant, a wireless handheld for vow exchanges or readings, and music playback for processional, ceremony interludes, and recessional. The system is calibrated for the ceremony space whether outdoors on grass or indoors in a chapel.

Signature intelligent dance lighting (4 lights)

Four programmable intelligent lights wash the dance floor with synchronized color and movement. Cues are mapped to the music so the floor pulses with the beat, and the look transforms an ordinary reception space into a club-quality dance environment without overwhelming the room.

Up to two one-hour planning meetings

Planning is collaborative. Two one-hour meetings are included to walk through your music preferences, must-play list, do-not-play notes, parent-dance picks, lighting color, ceremony cues, and any custom song requests. Spotify and Apple playlists can be shared as references, and the cellist can learn a custom processional or recessional song with enough notice.

Travel up to four hours roundtrip

Travel is included for venues within a four-hour roundtrip drive, covering the entire San Francisco Bay Area, Wine Country, the Central Coast, Lake Tahoe, the Sierra Foothills, and beyond. Long-distance weddings outside that radius can be quoted with travel and overnight accommodations as needed.

Perfect for

Music-loving couples who want their wedding entertainment to feel curated, personal, and unique. Especially popular for outdoor ceremonies with live processionals, garden cocktail hours where guests linger, and reception nights where a packed dance floor matters from the first track to the last call. Sized for 30 to 300 guests across most Bay Area and Northern California venues.

Frequently asked questions

Is the cello played live during the reception too? The Signature tier focuses cello performance on the ceremony and cocktail hour, with a full DJ set powering the reception. Higher-tier packages extend the live cello presence further into the night.

Can the cellist learn a specific song for our processional? Yes. With enough advance notice during the planning meetings, custom processional, recessional, or first-dance arrangements can be prepared.

Are the dance lights and uplights battery powered? Both intelligent dance lights and uplights are AC powered and wired to the venue. Battery options can be discussed for venues with limited power.

Do you bring backup gear? Yes. Redundant cabling, spare microphones, and backup playback are part of every event setup.

Why couples book this package

One artist, one cohesive musical thread, and one team taking care of every audio and lighting detail from ceremony through last dance. With dozens of weddings of experience and a five-star track record, the Signature package delivers a personal, memorable show that guests will be talking about long after the night ends.
