Bespoke arrangements
I don't just play from a rigid setlist. If there's a specific song that means the world to you, I will arrange it and play it specifically for your walk down the aisle.
Cello forWeddings
From guest arrival to the last quiet moment before dinner, live cello gives the day warmth, poise, and a sense of occasion.
The Reality
The music should feel calm before the aisle.
Weddings have enough moving pieces. The right musician makes the soundtrack feel considered without adding another job to your list.
“What happens if the bride is late? Does the music just... loop?”
“How do I time the processional music so it starts at the right moment and lasts exactly as long as the walk?”
“How do I match the music to the venue's vibe without it feeling off?”
“Do I need different music for the ceremony, cocktail hour, AND reception entrance or is that overkill?”
“Is my playlist too cliche? Will the guests like it?”
It should feel planned, personal, and easy to trust.
The Impact
The right song changes the room.
It steadies the ceremony, gives guests something beautiful to arrive into, and makes each transition feel intentional.
You remember the vows. Your guests remember how the room felt.
The Difference
Why couples choose me
Music is one part of a day full of moving pieces. I make sure it's the part you never have to worry about.
Reading the room
Live music shouldn't feel pre-programmed. I watch the guests, feel the atmosphere, and intuitively adjust the pacing and volume to exactly what the moment needs.
Quiet professionalism
From arriving early to communicating directly with your venue and coordinator, everything is handled discreetly behind the scenes. You simply show up and enjoy the day.
Zero added work
Everything is handled autonomously on the day. You don't need to direct, manage, or worry about the music.
I asked Luke to arrange a Bon Iver song for our walk down the aisle. He didn't just play it — he made it sound like it was written for us.

Every coordinator I've worked with since has asked who the cellist was. That's the effect Luke has on a room.

From the moment he arrived to the last bow, we didn't have to think about the music once — which is exactly what you want on your wedding day.

FAQ
Questions couples usually ask
Yes. Every package includes bespoke song requests for key moments like your walk down the aisle or signing the register. I'll arrange and learn them specifically for your day.
Absolutely. The All-Rounder and Full Experience packages include extended coverage to keep the atmosphere elegant and engaging while you take photos and mingle with guests.
Popular summer and weekend dates often book up 12-18 months in advance. I recommend reaching out as soon as you have your date and venue confirmed to secure availability.
The cello projects beautifully in most acoustic spaces. For larger outdoor settings or rooms with 100+ guests, I provide professional, discreet amplification that requires access to standard power.
Weddings rarely run exactly to the minute. I always arrive early and allow buffer time in my schedule to adapt naturally to the flow of your day without added stress.
