Pricing - "How much will it cost?"
Some weddings are barefoot on the beach. Others are extravagant productions. Some weddings are in Los Angeles and others are in Laguna, Palm Springs or Texas. Some weddings have 25 guests and some have 600 guests. Some weddings have music only for the ceremony while others have me perform for 4 hours. These are just a few of variables that need to be considered when asking a harpist for pricing.
My performance fee will be determined by gathering information from you about your wedding. This can be done one of two ways, either by telephone {818-543-4884} or e mail (caroltatummusic@yahoo.com).
To determine my performance fee, I will need to know:
1) Date, time and location of your wedding
2) How long you would like me to play (ceremony is 1 hour, ceremony/cocktail hour is 2 hours, ceremony/cocktail hour/reception is 3 or more hours)
3) Whether your wedding is indoors or outdoors
4) How many guests will be attending
Once we determine your needs and budget, I will e mail you a Performance Agreement, which you fill out and mail back to me with your 50% deposit, which reserves your wedding date. I also have you fill out a one page Wedding Questionnaire which helps me determine the specifics of your wedding.
Once I receive the deposit and Agreement, the fun part starts! We speak on the phone and go through the details of your wedding: songs, how many bridesmaids/groomsmen, if you are having the unity candle or unity sand, the color theme of your wedding, if you will be working with a wedding coordinator, if your vows will be recited through a P.A. system, if you would like a glissando on the harp while you have your first kiss!, and much more.
So, please contact me with any questions or if you would like to book me. Thank You ~ and congratulations!
