“They have their own great arrangements of some classic tunes, and they are terrific musicians. They were able to offer advice and guidance when it was needed, and even to accommodate a special request for a special song for us (Outkast's Hey Ya which was not in their usual repertoire) and they learned it and created their own arrangement and their version was terrific! The perfect music for a very happy day.” Nigel M

It's a privilege and I can't think of a better contribution than creating a magic vibe to seal your love with my music. Our family lives and breathes music, I often perform with my wife who sings (see Breakfast at Tiffany's listing), and when I'm not performing I'm composing new pieces and teaching!

We had Gavin and another musician, play at our wedding during the ceremony and cocktail hour and they were absolutely amazing and so talented. The music was perfect and we LOVED that they played our song request from the Mandalorian. One of our favourite moments of the night.

Gavin is a very talented guitarist, and an amazing person. He was able to make our wedding day even more special than it already was. He played our requests flawlessly and really brought emotions to our wedding. He was also very responsive to all our messages. We highly recommend!!

Do you charge more for New Year's Eve weddings?

Wondering if there are surcharges on bands/djs for weddings on special dates like this. We're thinking of a NYE wedding.

Gavin Libotte Guitar

As it's a very busy and high paying night for musicians yes the cost of music will be higher on NYE. Usually the NYE minimum per live performer is at least $800 for up to 4hrs, and $1000 if more time on site.

What happens if our wedding DJ is sick on the day?

My partner and I are wondering what happens if our wedding DJ gets sick and can't make it to our reception? Do they plan for this sort of thing? Do we need to prepare an emergency playlist or something with our venue? Thanks.

Gavin Libotte Guitar

As much as possible we will find a suitable replacement for any team members that cant make it to your event. This is our policy for live musicians and DJs

How much are travel fees for wedding bands/djs?

G'day. We're currently tossing up between a city wedding and a destination wedding in the country. Wondering how much wedding bands/djs charge to travel (and if they even want to?) How far are they willing to travel for a wedding? Thanks!

Gavin Libotte Guitar

Travel fees are usually $100 pp depending on distance from base city. If end time is 11pm onwards and the location is over 2 hours drive overnight accomodation may also be required as packdown takes 1hr after finish time, and more if at a complex venue such as the Opera House. If the location is interstate then flights/transfers need to be calculated. Hope this is helpful!
