Piedmont Strings strives to make your wedding or special event as personalized as possible Here is a list of different string ensembles. At each wedding we will play 30 minutes of prelude music as people are walking into the ceremony to find their seats. We will supply all music for the ceremony, and a recessional song as people are leaving the ceremony. Once you decide what type of ensemble you want, there is a $100 deposit (goes towards your final balance) and a $35 administration fee.

Canopy Tent (for extremely hot, or wet weather)
Direct sunlight can damage our expensive instruments (broken seams, cracked wood, broken strings, etc.) If your ceremony is in a sunny location we will need something to provide us with shade so we can keep our instruments safe (a tree providing shade will be sufficient.)
In addition, our instruments cannot be exposed to water (rain, fountains, or extreme humidity.) Some sort of covering is necessary if there is a risk of rain (a porch, gazebo, roof, tent, overhang, etc will be acceptable.)
We will provide a suitable tent for any outdoor wedding that does not have proper rain and/or sunlight coverage for $65.00. Please indicate whether you want this service and it will be added to your final balance.
