What kind of deposit is required to secure my date?

After deciding to use Sweetwater Strings at your wedding ceremony, we only require a 50% deposit that is subtracted from your total bill. This ensures that your date is secured, and you pay the remaining cost the day of the service.

How soon should I book my music?
ASAP! Fall and spring weddings are the most popular and chances are someone else in Arizona is getting married that day too! We suggest that you contact us as soon as you can to see if your date is available.
