The Music Boutique

Q: Do you learn new songs & take requests?

Absolutely! We already have a huge repertoire of music from classic to current - but we always love being able to add any special requests that would make the day meaningful for our clients!

Q: Do you provide music for wedding ceremonies or cocktail receptions?

Absolutely! Ceremony/Cocktail hour packages are our specialty in fact! Larger entertainment companies are built around their 10-piece show bands, whereas ours are built around our ceremony and cocktail groups!

Q: Are you fully insured?

Yes - we're happy to provide a certificate of insurance to your venue at no cost to you!

Q: What is your style?

Our groups range from refined & elegant, to fun & funky - we're happy to provide the perfect atmosphere for your day!

Q: What makes you different from the larger music companies?

We definitely have more of a client-focused, hand-crafted nature to what we do. We are truly enjoying the trend in micro-weddings and more personalized affairs. Our focus has always been on these style ensembles - vs companies whose main focus is their pre-packaged 8 to 10 piece party bands.

Q: Will you work with our planner?

Absolutely! Planners love working with us, because clear communication is so important to us.

Q: Will you be our easiest vendor?

YES! That's always our goal! You have enough stress planning everything else - you can be as hands-on or hands-off as you like, knowing you will have wonderful music for your day!

Q: What kinds of music groups do you have?

Cannot Recommend Enough!
From the very beginning, Scott and The Music Boutique were an absolute pleasure to work with. Music was such an important part of our wedding day, and Scott truly took the time to get to know us. He really listened to our wants and needs, and personalized every detail for both the ceremony and cocktail hour. It never felt like a "one-size-fits-all" experience - he made everything feel uniquely us. One thing that really stood out throughout the planning process was how responsive and attentive Scott was. Every conversation we had mattered, and he genuinely remembered the details we discussed, making us feel heard and confident that our vision was in the best hands. The live strings added such an elegant and emotional touch to our ceremony and cocktail hour. Walking down the aisle to beautifully performed live music is a moment we'll never forget, and so many of our guests commented on how incredible the musicians were. The cocktail hour music created the perfect atmosphere and tied everything together beautifully. Everything was executed flawlessly, allowing us to simply be present and enjoy every moment of our wedding day. If you're looking for live music that will truly elevate your wedding, I cannot recommend The Music Boutique enough. Scott and his musicians brought so much beauty, elegance, and personality to our wedding, and we are incredibly grateful they were part of such a special day.

Lovely Addition!
Working with The Music Boutique was a breeze from start to finish. They responded quickly to every question we had, and their explanations were straightforward and easy to understand. On our wedding day, they nailed our processional and recessional music—it sounded even better than we'd imagined it would. They kept the energy flowing during cocktail hour and brought an elegance to the whole event that elevated everything. Their professionalism and attention to detail made a real difference in creating the atmosphere we wanted. We'd recommend them without hesitation.

Best Decision we made!
We got married in November at the Silver Bay YMCA, and we cannot recommend Scott and his team enough. We knew we wanted a live band for part of our wedding and they were the best band we could have chosen. Our first meeting with Scott we could tell he understood our wedding day vision right away and was willing to work with us on learning new music to fulfill our nerdy requests. For example the team learned acoustic versions of 90's alternative songs, and the groomsmen and bridal party walked down the aisle to Legend of Zelda, my wife walked down the aisle to Nightmare before Christmas, and then we recessed to Studio Ghibli. Cocktail hr, all our guests commented how amazing the band was and how they enjoyed the live music. If you want something different for your wedding, we were thoroughly impressed at the musical abilities and made our music dreams come true. Thank you to this very special team!

Thank you so much, this was such a joy to read - and I love seeing the pics :) It was a pleasure working with you both and getting to dream up such a fun, unique musical plan together! I’m all about personalizing the day - from video games & soundtracks, to 90’s bangers! I’m so glad our team helped bring all of that to life. Thanks again for trusting us with such a special part of your day! Scott

If I could give 6 stars, I would!
We are so glad we chose Scott and his team for our wedding! The live music was one of the highlights of the entire day, and our guests are still talking about how wonderful it was. The variety they played was incredible, my husband is a big Grateful Dead fan, I love Justin Bieber, and we even had Nickelodeon tunes sprinkled in for a laugh. Somehow, it all came together seamlessly and felt perfectly us. From start to finish, the process was easy and enjoyable. Scott was wonderful to work with, and the musicians brought such talent, energy, and joy to our celebration. We couldn’t have asked for a better soundtrack to our wedding day. Highly recommend to anyone looking for live music that’s both personal and unforgettable!

Haha - 6 stars would be amazing :) Thanks so much Nicki - it's so fun for us to get to play such an eclectic mix of music! I think it seemed to fit the two of you perfectly as a couple, and I'm glad we had the opportunity to be part of it. I enjoyed getting to work with you & wish you guys all the best! Scott

Wonderful wedding music
The Music Boutique was an exceptional choice for our wedding. Scott’s communication was responsive, fast, and friendly, and highly personalized. He understood exactly what we were looking for. The string trio they provided was high quality, performing beautifully during our ceremony and cocktail hour, including learning a custom arrangement for our recessional song. The overall value and quality of their work was simply outstanding, and we would highly recommend The Music Boutique to any couple looking for top-notch wedding entertainment.

What a wonderful review - thanks so much! We loved the variety that our string trio was able to add to the ceremony & cocktail hour - and loved the custom arrangement from your friend! So glad we could be part of your celebration - wishing the two of you all the best :)
