For wedding ceremonies, many cellists can provide music as guests arrive, during the processional, through the signing of the register, and as the couple exits. Cocktail hours and dinner service are also popular booking options. Most professional cellists near you can learn specific songs on request, and many offer both acoustic and electric cello to suit the venue and atmosphere.
