Boutique Wedding Ceremony Music
Boutique complete the perfect wedding by offering tasteful, poignant music at your ceremony. With Rebecca on vocals and Lee on acoustic guitar, the duo perform everything from the traditional to modern wedding ballads, either completely acoustically, or with full backing tracks.
Getting married outdoors, at a beach or garden? No problems. Boutique have a fully portable, battery-powered mini-P.A. system to take the music wherever you need it to go. We can play Cd's or ipods as well. Boutique ceremony music is only available at a small additional charge when you book your reception with us, taking the headache out of having to find separate reception and ceremony musicians.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you hold live viewings where we can see you perform?
Yes! We hold live viewings a couple of times a month, in either Yarraville or Burwood. Bookings are essential. Parking is easy and free. Starting time is 8.30pm. Please visit our 'Enquire' page to find out when the next viewing is being held or call or email for more details and to book your place.
What are the main styles of music you play?
We usually start the evening off with popular jazz and swing, such as Michael Buble. As the night progresses, we move into some funky r 'n b to get everyone thinking about that dance floor! After the bridal dance, once the dance floor has been officially opened, we play all dance music from the 80's, a bit of 70's disco, a few rock n roll (for the oldies!) and some Top 40 - think Blame it on the boogie to Black eyed Peas!
Can you MC for us?
Boutique's all-inclusive, comprehensive service means you are left wanting for nothing. We provide an MC service to you free of charge. What this means is that we take care of all announcements including: Introductions, Speeches, Cake-cutting, Bridal dance, Farewell circle and anything else that needs to be done to keep your night running smoothly. If you have your own MC, we still help keep them on track and guide them through the night. We also have a brand new, quality wireless microphone for you to use for speeches so you can conduct speeches at the bridal table.
Can Boutique be extended out to a 4 or 5-piece band?
Most definitely! We add in a saxophone player and/or bass guitarist, which compliments the line-up and the sound perfectly. Additional charges apply.
How much space do you need?
Ideally, for the trio we require a space of approximately 5 metres across and 3 metres deep to accommodate for lighting and speaker stands. If your space is smaller, we can usually fiugre something out - give us a call.
Can I choose which songs you play?
Sure thing! What we suggest is to choose a few songs that you would really like to hear during the night, as well as any you want us to avoid playing, and leave it to us to read your crowd the rest of the time. We never play the same songs to every audience, instead we cater to what your individual group seem to be into as the night progresses.
How much do you play? How many songs or for how long?
A booking is for a 5-6 hour function. In that time, we play just as much as we can, based around meal service and your formalities. That would generally work out to approximately 4x45 minute sets. We definitely prefer to be up playing than sitting around. During breaks we play fantastic mp3 party music to keep everyone dancing. From the moment your function starts, there will be continuous music playing to perfectly compliment each part of the night.
How far out from my function date do I need to book?
6 - 12 months for peak season (September - April). However, even if your function falls during peak time and you've left booking entertainment till the last minute, please check with us to see if we're available. You could be lucky! It's a good idea to allow 6 months booking time for the winter months.
Do I really need to attend a viewing when I like what I've seen and heard online?
Not at all - in fact, we're finding that more and more people are booking us straight from the website. Afterall, life is busy enough, let alone finding the time to traipse all over town to see bands. Sometimes that process can leave you more dazed and confused than before you started. Some clients like to secure their date first, then attend a viewing later. And if it's any consulation, we are told time and time again that we sound even better live than on the website.
What about the bridal dance?
We are happy to learn most songs if you can't find what you're looking for on our list. If you need help choosing a song we can certainly help you with some suggestions.
There's a song I really would like you to play but I can't find it on your songlist.
Our full songlist is massive! We can't include every song we do on the website, so please ask us to check our archives. If it's a new song and relatively well known, it's usually no problem for us to learn it just for you.
How do I secure my date?
Simply give us a call or email all the details of your function date and venue. We'll get back to you immediately with our availability and quote, then simply lock it in with a 15% deposit and your entertainment is sorted.
Please feel free to email or call if you have any other questions and we'll do our best to help.
We service Metropolitan Melbourne & surrounding areas.
Please use the contact form to enquire about our availabilites, to request a quote, or to book for the next viewing. Please include function date & venue.
Alternatively, phone Rebecca on 0412 252 760

SOME RECENT TESTIMONIALS
Hi Rebecca,
I just wanted to write a quick note to thank you so very much for all your help in organising the music for our wedding. Sam and I have heard nothing but great feedback about the music. It was a truly magical night with thanks to your great entertainment. I cannot thank you enough. As you said, it will go so fast, it really did, but there is one moment that I keep playing in my head and that’s when you started playing our wedding song, you sung it so wonderfully, I honestly will never forget.
Thanks again so much for all the effort you all put in. I will definitely be recommending you to our friends and family for all our future functions.
Your work truly is amazing.
Sam & Emma Angerosa.
