Music would always be part of weddings. They would either come through choir, strings ensemble or full bands with percussion instruments paired with great vocals that would uplift the mood during ceremonies and reception programs. As we went through our own wedding vendor’s bookings, as music lovers ourselves, we made sure that we would definitely hire a good and affordable team to play during our ceremony while we would be doing our wedding march and for the reception program’s live entertainment. Since Filipinos are known for great musical inclination and vocals, it’s not difficult to find great talents who have been serenading newly married couples and their guests for years. As an added help, we sought the help of our wedding coordinator for any recommendation whilst comparing them to what we have researched for months.
