Cocktail Hour Music

Ceremony and cocktail hour are planned together so the music flows naturally between them, even when they take place in separate spaces. Instead of treating these moments as independent setups, we design them as one continuous musical experience with intentional instrumentation choices.

The chordal instrument used during the ceremony differs from cocktail hour, allowing live music to continue without teardown or silence as guests transition. This approach avoids gaps in sound, eliminates rushed resets, and keeps the atmosphere consistent from one space to the next.

Guests arrive at cocktail hour with music already underway, creating a smooth transition and a more polished experience that sets the tone for the rest of the evening.
