Cape Town Wedding Music, Violin & Clarinet Music for Cape Town Weddings

Yesterday we performed Wedding Music at D’Aria Wedding Venue in Durbanville, Cape Town.

We simply love performing at D’Aria Wedding Venue – always superb, friendly service, smiles from everyone and such a lovely forest wedding venue!  Thanks Bevin for hiring us to perform at your wedding.  We were so thankful for the few drops of rain that fell in Cape Town on Friday night , but also relieved that you had perfect wedding weather on your special day.

What to expect when you hire us?  We provide light well-know classical music about 20-30 minutes while your guests arrive and take their seats.  This creates a relaxed vibe and get everyone talking!  Then music for your bridesmaids, the wedding march for the bride and music as you sign the register and leave the ceremony. We then move over to the pre-drinks area and continue playing while you have your photos taken and canapés are being served.

Want to hear what we sound like?

We offer free live demo’s for 2 hour bookings (ceremony plus pre-drinks).

Enquire about availability and come and meet us, discuss your plans and listen to excerpts from our Wedding Music repertoire.

 

Looking forward to meet you!

A picture is worth a thousand words, and this time we mean it literally!  Whilst setting up our music stands for Alex and Farinaaz’s wedding music at Lanserac in Stellenbosch, we noticed a painter getting out his canvas and paint and preparing his podium to get started with his painting.  As we arrive, we normally meet and greet the photographer, events coordinator and other service providers along the way, but a painter?

Anyway, this romantic couple were blessed with the most superb Stellenbosch wedding weather anyone could wish for!  After numerous showers of much needed rain on Sunday, Monday turned out to be clear with sunny skies.

Lanserac Wedding Painting by Derric Van Rensburg

It is no easy task to organize your wedding all the way from China, but Farinaaz and Alex did a great job in carefully selecting their service providers.  We even felt like a small family that just never happened to meet before.  It was great to once again work with Nanine Pienaar from Prickly Pear Events (hop over to her website to see what magic she can create for you!) and also to meet Andrew from Silverline Productions – it was quite amazing to watch how carefully he “droned” spectacular shots during this wedding.  And then of course it was such an honour to meet Impressionist artist Derric Van Rensburg and to witness how he magically created a painting of this wedding in more or less one hour!  It is always special to meet someone so talented, yet so humble.

Duo Decadence with Phebe la Grange

On Saturday, 11 February 2017, we performed at the historical Rhenish Missionary Church in Stellenbosch for Laylanie & Graig’s wedding.  A pretty little church with its bell towers, high ceilings and beautiful acoustics! Pretty as a postcard and a small piece of history in the middle of Stellenbosch.

It was an honour to do a special item in song at this wedding with Phebe la Grange, former soloist of the Tygerberg Children’s Choir – Cape Town’s proud musical export product and one of South Africa and the world’s best international children’s choirs.

Thanks Laylani for bringing us together!  It was a pleasure to perform with such a dedicated, musical, talented and young singer.  We now know why you chose the song “From this Moment”.  We know that with so much love between you, you and Graig are ready for this journey together.

Rhenish Missionary Church Stellenbosch

Our classical duo on violin and clarinet perform at weddings in the Cape Town/Stellenbosh and Boland areas.  We arrive well ahead of the ceremony to set up, warm and tune instruments and start playing as the first wedding guests arrive.  We play your bridesmaids in on their own song and then you, the bride, on your favourite wedding march.  If needed, we provide music for signing the register and we play you out on a triumphant celebratory  song.

You can also book us for your pre-drinks ceremony where we entertain guests on well-known light classical music while you have your photos taken.

To book your Wedding Music on Violin and Clarinet, e-mail Elanie on elanie.lagrange@gmail.com or phone/WhatsApp her on 0836054423.

Wedding Music Avontuur Estate

We simply love week-day weddings!  This morning Duo Decadence Wedding Music Duo set off to Avontuur Estate to perform at the of wedding of Carole Helsby & James Davis.

What an honour to have been part of this elderly couple’s wedding ceremony.  And also to be in the company of a 100 year old (James’ father)!  Such lovelyness.

We perform at quite a number of venues around Stellenbosch and Somerset West, but Avontuur Estate’s service at the Avontuur Estate Restaurant deserves special mention.  Thanks Melanie & Zunia and your amazing team of waitrons for welcoming us, looking after us, keeping our glasses full and making sure that we had proper shade for our instruments at all times.  We really appreciated your realness and friendly smiles.  We’ll be back soon with our friends and families!

Horse Wire Artwork at Avontuur Estate

Avontuur Estate is also home to a thoroughbred farm and was established in the late 1980s by the late Tony Taberer.  So if you are a horselover, this  might be your perfect wedding venue!

Besides the horses, Avontuur Estate has been producing quality wine grapes for more than 140 years and also offers wine tastings and sell award-winning wines.

Wedding Music Riebeeck West ~ 21 January 2017 ~

Riebeeck West Summer 2017 Wedding Music

Violin Wedding Music in Riebeeck-West!

The small town of Riebeeck West is situated about 75 km North-East of Cape Town and 5km North of its  twin town, Riebeeck Kasteel in the Swartland area of the Western Cape.

This is where we performed for Colette and Handro’s wedding last Saturday.  In November 2015 our violin and clarinet wedding duo performed at Colette’s cousin’s wedding at D’Aria in Durbanville.  It was lovely to see the not-so-newly-weds-anymore again!

When you hire us to play at your wedding ceremony, we arrive more or less 40 minutes before the start of the ceremony to set up, warm and tune instruments.  As your first guests arrive, we start playing and do so until the bride arrives.  This creates a lovely, relaxed atmosphere and serves as an ice breaker where guests who do not necessarily know each other well, end up in lenthy conversations :-).

Our Cape Town wedding duo on violin and clarinet plays your favourite Wedding March as you enter the church/ceremony, music for the rings, lighting of the candles, signing of the register and also music as you leave the church.  Your bridesmaids can enter on their own special song, or also on the Wedding March – all depending on how you visualize your big day!

Drop us a mail at elanie.lagrange@gmail.com or contact Elanie on 0836054423 to check availability and make your wedding music booking.

Happy planning!

 

 

 

Tokara, Stellenbosch, Birthday Music

While we are waiting for the wedding music season in Stellenbosch to kick off, we are enjoying some amazing birthday music gigs!

Last week we celebrated a lovely, stylish twenty first birthday with the birthday girl and her University of Cape Town student friends.  On short notice, we arranged Stevie Wonder’s “Happy Birthday” song for violin and clarinet and set off to play at Tokara Wine Estate.

Tokara 21st Birthday Music

While we set up, the birthday crowd had a wine tasting ceremony and soon after that they joined in for lunch.  We performed light classical music and some contemporary favourites as background music, which proved to be popular with the crowd :-).  They had a blast and were in and out for fun photo sessions and outside walks.  During the speeches we faded the music and resumed playing as they again settled into further celebrations and festive behaviour.

Tokara is a wise choice for a 21st birthday-party.  With the most outstanding service, views and hospitality no one can go wrong in choosing Tokara as their venue, no matter the type of function.  Though we were music service providers on the day, we were carried on the hands from our arrival till our departure and were taken care of as if it was our very own function they catered for.  Thanks Tokara!

Our Winter season was filled with birthday music gigs, but our wedding season bookings are now open for Summer 2016/7!  E-mail us on elanie.lagrange@gmail.com or phone Elanie on 0836054423.  Check availability and if you live in/around Stellenbosch, Cape Town, book your (free) live demo with us!

View Stellenbosch Flying Club

On Friday late afternoon Cape Town was hit by stormy winds and rain.  Roads were blocked, trees were to be removed from highways and streets….and I was thinking about the poor bride that must get married today.  But true to Cape Town (and Stellenbosch) weather, Saturday morning came and the skies were clear!

We received a friendly welcome at the club and really did not know what to expect to play wedding music at a wedding at a flying club!  Needless to say… a very first for us.

The views are simply stunning and we quickly settled in and started playing as the first guests arrived.

We played the bride in on Mendelssohn’s Wedding March, Air by Bach while they exchanged rings and The Trumpet Voluntary as they left the ceremony to sign the register.

Violin and Clarinet for Cape Town and Stellenbosch Weddings

Brenda and Johannes were such a lovely couple and we wish them all the blessings in this world!  Thanks Jayne (Brenda’ mom) for hiring us to play at your daughter’s wedding and also for your kind words.  It means a lot to us :-).

You can hire the Duo Decadence Wedding Music duo on violin and clarinet to play your wedding march and live wedding ceremony/pre-drinks wedding music in the Cape Town, Stellenbosch/Paarl/Franschhoek areas. E-mail Elanie on elanie.lagrange@gmail.com or call Elanie on 0836054423.

Enquire about travel – if possible we can arrange to travel to your wedding destination.

You are most welcome to book your (free) live demo with us where we play excerpts from the popular Wedding Marches and this is where we meet and discuss all the wedding music for your day.

Lanserac Hotel and Spa Wedding Venue

Yesterday’s wedding at Lanserac was stylish, it was well-planned, in very good taste, luxurious and warm with lots of character, like its two main characters and other participants!

Thanks Zanele and Earl that you chose us to play your wedding music and your wedding march yesterday at Lanserac.

We felt like we  knew each other for many years.  It was such a pleasure to work with you guys, as you knew exactly what you were looking for and what style of music you had in mind.

When we arrived to set up and tune instruments, every staff member at Lanserac was exceptionally helpful and very friendly.

 

Cape Town Wedding Musicians

We played some pre-ceremony music while we waited for the bride to arrive.  This created a lovely atmosphere and extra  warmth on such a cold and rainy Autumn day in Cape Town.

Zanele chose J.S.Bach’s  Arioso for ther bridesmaids and little girls to enter the church.  For herself she chose Wagner’s Bridal March and what an entry she made!

With lots of confidence and prettiness, she made her way down the aisle to meet Earl.

After the ceremony, the DJ – from Your DJ – played her out on a traditional Xhosa song.

Our duo on violin and clarinet went to set up outside and waited for the couple to return from where they went to sign the wedding register.

All the guests formed a guard of honour and as the couple descended from the stairs of the Cellar Hall, we played the Trumpet Tune.

Everyone started ululating and expressed their joy and happiness for the couple.

Other service providers at yesterday’s Lanserac’s wedding were:

• Karen Bergh Photography
• Blaze Productions
• Your DJ

What a lovely bunch of professionals!  We highly recommend them.
