As someone who’s performed all over Queensland (in humidity, sunshine, and the odd tropical downpour), I’ve found some true gems when it comes to wedding venues that love and support live music.

One of the most common questions I get from couples is this: "Do we really need both a live musician and a DJ? Or should we choose one?" And the answer is... it depends on your vision! But don’t stress - I’m here to break it down for you.

When it comes to planning a wedding, the soundtrack can make or break the vibe. Music isn't just filler - it's the emotional undercurrent that ties everything together. After performing at hundreds of weddings (and crying at most of them), here are my tips for curating a soundtrack that’s meaningful, memorable and oh-so-you.

The first dance is such a tender moment - it’s one of the only times in the day where the world pauses and it’s just the two of you. It’s intimate, emotional, and often the first chance you get to truly breathe and soak it all in.

Music is the heartbeat of a wedding day. Each part of the day has its own rhythm, and it’s my job to match that energy - from those teary-eyed vows to full-on dance floor chaos. The key is seamless transitions. You don’t want jarring genre changes or awkward silences - you want flow. A sense of journey.

When people ask how I ended up singing people down the aisle for a living, I usually smile and say, "It’s been a journey." Because it truly has.
