About / Biography

Hi, I’m Cecilia, an Italian singer and acoustic guitarist based in Rome, performing at weddings, proposals and intimate events across Italy and Europe.

I usually perform solo, with voice and acoustic guitar. For a fuller sound, I can put together a duo with a second guitarist, violinist, bassist or saxophonist chosen for your event. I arrange everything, so you only deal with me.

At weddings I play for the ceremony, aperitivo and dinner. For the ceremony we choose songs together for the entrance, the key moments and the exit. After that the music is relaxed enough for guests to chat and expressive enough to make them stop and listen. I also sing at surprise proposals, including several at the Colosseum, and at private parties, restaurants, hotels and rooftops.

Years of singing for international audiences gave me a wide repertoire: pop, soul, contemporary hits, acoustic rock, country, Italian classics and Spanish and Latin songs. I also have a dedicated ceremony selection, and we build every setlist together around you and your guests.

I’ve performed professionally for over 25 years, including two years as a resident singer with Viking, travelling the world by ship. Wherever I’ve lived, restaurants, hotels and private venues have booked me again year after year. As one couple wrote after their wedding: “She blew us away with her voice.”

Born in Rome and raised in Venezuela, I speak and sing in Italian, English and Spanish. My mom put me on stage beside her when I was four, and I still love the moment a song really reaches someone.

Send me your date, location and the kind of celebration you’re planning, and I’ll reply with availability and ideas.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

As a solo act, I don't require a lot of space. My basic technical requirements include a power supply close to the performance area and a flat, level surface for setup. Possibly a stool or chair.


What information do you require about a venue?

Is there on-site parking available for performers and Is there reliable access to power outlets near the performance area


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

I do provide sound equipment. As long as the event doesn't require international travel and the venue is intimate, I can bring my own gear to ensure everything is set up perfectly for the performance


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Yes, I'm happy to play music from Spotify before, after, and between my sets. I'm comfortable choosing the music myself or letting the client select their playlist.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

For the past two years, I've had the incredible opportunity to be the 'Guitar Entertainer/Vocalist' for Viking Cruises. I've performed in their lounges and bars, creating intimate and memorable experiences for guests. One of my career highlights was playing at the Star Theatre, which holds an audience of 500 people.


What's your favourite type of event?

I love playing at all sorts of events, but weddings are my favorite! There's something special about being part of such a meaningful day and adding to the joy and celebration. It's an honor to contribute to the happiness of the couple and their guests


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

With both my parents being musicians, music has always been a part of my life. One of my earliest memories is being on stage at the age of four. I've been singing since childhood and picked up the guitar during my teenage years . By the time I turned 16, I was performing weekly gigs in restaurants, sharing my passion for music with others. It's been an incredible journey.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

My top 3 favorite female artists of all time are Carole King, Alanis Morissette, and Amy Winehouse, and many more. One of the most beautiful love songs is 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face' by Roberta Flack.


What kind of music do you perform at weddings?

I offer a curated list of over 150 songs that couples can browse through — all chosen for their emotional depth and popularity at weddings. From there, we build a setlist together that reflects your story, your energy, and the kind of atmosphere you want to create.


Can you learn a special song for our ceremony or proposal?

Yes, and I love doing that. If a song holds meaning for you, I’ll take the time to learn it and make sure it’s performed with care. Even if I’ve never heard it before, I’ll make it feel like it was always part of your day.


Do you perform solo or with other musicians?

Both. I often sing and play guitar solo, but I also perform as a duo with Juan, a brilliant guitarist. It depends on the vibe you’re going for — we’ll find the setup that fits.


Can you help us choose the right songs for each part of the day?

Of course. If you already have songs in mind, I’ll work with them. If not, I’m happy to suggest options that match the mood — from walking down the aisle to your first dance.


Do you travel for weddings outside of Frascati or Rome?

Yes, I do. I’m based in Frascati but happy to travel across Italy (and beyond) for the right event. Just let me know where and when. One of my last weddings was in Sitges, Barcelona — such a beautiful celebration, and I’m always open to new adventures.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I usually arrive 1 hour before the performance to set up, ensuring everything is perfect and ready to go. I typically perform 2 x 45-minute or 2 x 60-minute sets, depending on the occasion. I'm happy to adjust the set times if needed.


Are you happy to perform outside?

I'm happy to play outside, but I do ask for some shade, a flat, level surface, and a power supply close to the performance area.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

I can learn specific songs before the event, but I usually limit this to 3 songs, which is included in the price. Clients are welcome to choose from my extensive repertoire of over 350 songs, or I can create a set list for them based on their general preferences.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Clients often describe my performances as engaging, heartfelt, and emotionally resonant. They value my ability to match the music to the mood, my professionalism, and the personal touch I bring to every event — making their special moments truly memorable.
