About

Greenville Wedding Music is a wedding music service based in Travelers Rest, South Carolina.

Greenville Wedding Music was created out of the desire to provide high-quality, affordable, and modern music using more traditional instruments. We work to provide live, custom-tailored music for you on your special day. We can play and arrange any style of music (from traditional to modern/pop) with great flexibility to fit your needs. While we have an extensive song list to choose from, we are also not afraid to learn/arrange something new for you!

We play in any location and provide all of our own quality sound equipment (for musicians only). We can even operate "off-grid" if need be. No power? No problem! Rainy Day? No problem! Yes, we even have our own small tent in case you do not have a "rain plan" for your outdoor ceremony! We also ask to use our tent if shade is not available at the ceremony site as our instruments can get a little wonky in direct sun. (some venue restrictions may apply)

Services Offered and Instrument Combinations:

Greenville Wedding Music mainly focuses on wedding ceremonies with some clients choosing us for cocktail hour as well. We are happy to do receptions and private parties - but we do not offer the full "show" that most DJs provide.

Passionate musicians, beautiful music, nice people, easy to work with.

Choosing Greenville Wedding Music to play at my daughter’s wedding in February was one of the best choices we made during our wedding planning. We chose the cello, violin, piano trio and the music was absolutely beautiful! So many people have told us how much they enjoyed it. Chris Powell was so easy to work with and was so helpful in answering questions and making suggestions. Their repertoire is extensive and covers many genres, but if you have selections that are not on the list they are willing to play them also. They accommodated us in every way regarding our music choices and arrangements. Their beautiful sound created the most beautiful setting for our special day. There are lots of fine musicians who can “play” music, and then there are those who “make” music. There is a difference. The members of Greenville Wedding Music “make” music. They are excellent musicians, professional in every way, and are all such nice people who seem to really enjoy sharing their gifts. How fortunate for all of us! Thank you Greenville Wedding Music!

Stunning Music

Greenville Wedding Music is hands down one of the best vendors we booked for our wedding day. Music is very important to both of us, and they were flawless. We booked a cellist and pianist to play for our ceremony, and they were so good I almost started crying as I listened before coming down the aisle. We asked them to do instrumental versions of modern songs and they did a phenomenal job. Very professional, very easy to work with, beautiful music. So glad we booked them!

Sentimental and Perfect!

I work in the music industry, so the feel of the music for our ceremony was to of my list in terms of importance. I knew the second we got engaged that I wanted strings, and I wanted our ceremony music to be non-traditional. Christopher was AMAZING to work with. He listened to the style we were hoping for (Vitamin String Quartet -esque) and executed it flawlessly with his own arrangement. Not only did he accommodated my whole playlist which was all by-request (even threw in some Star Wars prelude tunes for my husband which made his day), but he also sent me a sample to make sure the sound was what I had envisioned. People have RAVED about our ceremony music and how tasteful and modern it was. It was the perfect detail for the perfect day.

Beautiful Music!

Chris and Ben did an amazing job at our wedding ceremony! They have a large selection of music to choose from and helped us narrow down a good selection for our pre-ceremony and ceremony music. The guests were all complimenting on the music! We enjoyed working with Chris throughout the process and he did a wonderful job!

Beautiful music

My guests were blown away at the sound of Greenville wedding music. The owner helped me pick songs that fit my preferences and venue. He was a pleasure to work with. Very professional. If you are considering live music, DO IT! I recommend the acoustic guitar and cello together!
