OVERVIEW
What You’ll Love About Working with Ivory & Strings For Your Brisbane Wedding:
Led by vocalist and pianist Shivon, Ivory & Strings brings together artistry, musical experience and a considered approach to wedding entertainment. Shivon has years of musical study behind her, along with international performance experience with Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines and P&O. She works closely with you to shape the soundtrack for each stage of your celebration, helping the music feel intentional from the first guest arrival through to the evening.
The Ivory & Strings sound takes inspiration from Old Hollywood jazz alongside modern influences, with piano, guitar, strings and ambient vocals creating plenty of flexibility for different moments. You might begin with understated ceremony music, continue with relaxed live performances over cocktails, then bring more energy into your reception. Rather than treating each performance as a separate feature, the music is designed to create a natural flow throughout your celebration.

About
Hi, I’m Shivon — singer, pianist, guitarist and the face behind Ivory & Strings. After years performing on cruise ships and in jazz venues across Sydney and Brisbane, I created Ivory & Strings from my love of beautiful live music, romantic strings and, admittedly, all things Bridgerton. I love taking songs you already know and giving them an elegant little twist — creating a soundtrack that feels personal, timeless and completely you. 🖤
