Wedding Services 

It is a great privilege to be asked to sing for weddings! I'm humbled and overjoyed to share my voice and music with couples during one of the most special and important days of their lives. If you hire me to sing for your wedding, I offer:

• In-person consultation meeting with the couple on song selections (or online/over the phone)
• Singing (and playing ukulele) for Wedding Ceremony, Cocktail Hour, and/or Reception 
• Coordinating and hiring accompanists/band
• Providing music equipment (PA's, mic stands, cables, mixers, etc.) - if needed
• *Catholic Wedding Liturgy music planning

Worship Services

My Catholic Christian faith deeply influences my music, my songwriting, singing, along with all other aspects of my life. When I sing, whether it be worship music or secular music or anything in between, singing is prayer for me. I lead worship for events such as:

• Masses or other liturgies
• Eucharistic Adoration or XLT's ("Uke-aristic" Adoration)
• Retreats
• Conferences
• Parish Events and Festivals

Other Events

• Corporate events
• Rallies
• Galas and fundraisers 
• Funerals and memorial services
• Family gatherings
