Maira Opera Singer

What you'll love about working with Maira Opera Singer for your Melbourne wedding:

• Italian artistry and experience. Maira trained and perfected her craft in Italy, performing in Italian theatres over a decade. She brings that experience to Australian weddings through expressive singing and a love of Italian music.
• Music with personal meaning. A favourite song can hold years of memories. Maira welcomes requests and helps couples choose music that honours their story, suits their wedding and brings meaning to each moment.
• An atmosphere that changes with the celebration. Romantic classical singing accompanies the ceremony, vintage Italian songs bring warmth to cocktail hour, and a dedicated live show gives guests a performance to enjoy together.

Maira’s repertoire reaches beyond traditional opera. Classical arias sit alongside Pop Opera favourites such as Time to Say Goodbye, romantic Italian songs and the nostalgic music of 1950s and 1960s Italy. Couples can choose the elegance of a classical ceremony, the joyful character of an Italian aperitivo or a dedicated show that makes live music a feature of the celebration.

Planning begins with a free consultation, with unlimited phone calls included to discuss songs and performance details. Maira works closely with each couple on their musical choices, and every package includes a professional microphone and speaker system.
