New York Ceremony Music

New York Ceremony Music - The Signature Sound of Cello & Guitar

Since 1999, New York Ceremony Music has specialized in crafting the musical narrative for weddings through a repertoire of over 200 custom arranged songs. Having performed and arranged music together for over two decades, founders Topu Lyo and Randy Bergida have the experience to navigate your day with ease—from the ceremony and cocktail hour to a sophisticated dinner set—giving us the versatility to make your celebration unique and, above all, seamless.

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy is simple: write great arrangements, pay attention to the details, and be fully present every step of the way. We look forward to hearing your story and helping you tell it through music.

Custom Arranged Songs

Our sound is built on over 25 years of reimagining any genre for our instrumentation. With a library of over 200 studio recordings—ranging from The Beatles and Radiohead to Fleet Foxes and Django Reinhardt—we can create a custom arrangement for any piece to ensure your day feels authentic to you.

Ceremony Soundtracks

For couples seeking the highest form of personalization, we offer Ceremony Soundtracks through our NYCM Originals series. We compose a suite of original music for your ceremony and of your story—recorded in-studio, performed live, and cut to vinyl to last a lifetime.

New York City & Destination Events

Based in Brooklyn, we perform extensively from the Hamptons to the Hudson Valley and at destination events worldwide, including Los Angeles, Italy, and Mexico. We bring the technical mastery of 25 years of interplay to every celebration.
