Violin for Your Cocktail Hour
After the ceremony

The receiving line
A musical backdrop as you welcome guests at a club or estate gathering, with room for conversation.
On the terrace
Enjoy live violin in an outdoor setting, subject to suitable weather protection, a safe level performance area, and your venue’s backup plan.
Music That Fits Your Evening
Plan violin around guest arrivals, drinks, and the move into dinner or dancing.
Share your start and finish times, any announcements, and your planner’s contact details. Gala will confirm the performance length and transitions available for your event.
Sound for Your Setting
An indoor room and an open-air terrace have different sound needs. Guest count, layout, and the surrounding conversation all matter.
Share those details so Gala can assess amplification needs. Sound equipment is not assumed to be included; confirm the setup before booking. Outdoor performances also need shade, a safe level performance area, weather protection, a backup location, and a check of power availability.
Choose the Mood
From classical music to familiar arrangements, choose a musical direction that suits your celebration: relaxed, romantic, or formal.
Have a particular song in mind? Send your request and when you would like to hear it. Availability depends on the arrangement and preparation time, and Gala will confirm what is possible before booking.
