Music for Wedding Ceremonies
Looking for an amazing instrumental version of your favorite song for your wedding ceremony? What about a more traditional wedding ceremony with classics from Wagner, Mendelssohn, and Bach? Our guitarist, Steve Schaefer, has you covered. Steve is a classically trained guitarist and has been crafting amazing guitar transcriptions for weddings since before we started playing weddings as a band. His talent is undeniable and his ceremony performances are always received with rave reviews. His services can be added to the band's wedding performance package or he can be hired on his own.
