Rob's been playing Ceremonies and Cocktail Hours for us since we opened in 2016. He's great for parties and corporate events as well. He has a cool style and can play anything from vintage to modern to hymns.

Venue

Graystone Quarry

Franklin, TN

I wear all black dress clothes. For outdoor ceremonies I may or may not wear a suit jacket and tie, depending on the temperature.

Yes! I've had brides walk down the aisle to The Black Crowes, Snow Patrol, The Zombies and (not kidding) the theme to the 'Final Fantasy' video game. Occasionally I charge a small fee for new songs ($10-25) to cover sheet music and time.

I've been playing weddings professionally since 2005, and performed for over 700 weddings. There is more to playing a wedding ceremony than just musicianship. It requires timing and poise, and an ability to 'roll with the punches.' You never know what's going to happen, so it's good to have lots of experience.

Yes. I offer packages that range from solo guitar for the ceremony and prelude for seating of guests, to classical and Jazz trios and quartets for ceremony and cocktail hour, as well as reception.

For solo guitar I typically arrive thirty minutes before the prelude begins. It usually takes me about five minutes to set up the small amplifier I bring with me, but I like to have plenty of time in case I need to run an extension cord or if there is traffic or another delay.
