My name is Lauren Urke and I’m an amateur violinist. I am getting married this summer at Stout’s Island Lodge in Wisconsin and am looking for college music students that would be interested in being hired to play at our wedding ceremony. We are looking for a string quartet or trio.
Description: Looking for college music students interested in being hired to play at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. We are looking for a string quartet or trio. Standard wedding repertoire, with the option to add in some non-classical covers for cocktail hour. Our DJ has audio equipment available since it will likely be necessary to amplify.Event: WeddingDate: 7/22/23Location: Stout’s Island Lodge in Birchwood, Wisconsin (2 hour drive from Twin Cities, 4 hours from Madison, probably best for students from Minnesota who are back there for the summer) – https://www.stoutsislandlodge.com/Duration: 4:30-6:30pm plus set upCompensation: Negotiable, depending on service offered. Happy to compensate for drive time and setup time too!Primary contact: Lauren Urke & Tom Wagner, lauren.and.tom.mn@gmail.com
Next steps: Please send us an email telling us about yourself and your ensemble and let us know if you have any experience playing in weddings. If you can, please share a short recording (doesn’t need to be wedding music unless you have one from a past gig). Thanks!
