    Great Ceremony & Cocktail Hour Duo

    We enjoyed working with Megan from Carolina Music Planner in the year leading up to the wedding to select our perfect setlists. We selected the string duo for our ceremony and cocktail hour (amplified). The ceremony music especially was so moving, that many were brought to happy tears (bride included!). We recommend Carolina Music Planner for magical music to walk down the aisle to on your wedding day.

    Wedding Package Live Music

    We hired Carolina Music Planners for our wedding reception and it all turned out exactly like we wanted. The selection of music was enough to fit all tastes in genre and the musicians that were there for us were very professional and excellent musicians. I thoroughly enjoyed their performance for our wedding day!

    Magical piano playing and easy booking coordination

    Megan was a joy to coordinate with when booking our solo pianist for our wedding. We wanted to add live music to our pre-ceremony and cocktail hour playlist, and I had a few questions on what duos might sound best and Megan was extremely helpful and responsive in answering all my questions and guiding us in the right direction for the sounds and vibe we wanted to achieve. We ended up going with a solo pianist, and Tayler, our pianist sounded MAGICAL. She added the perfect backdrop to our mountain wedding. And my husband surprised me with a song he had learned and memorized on the piano and Tayler so generously let him play it on her keyboard. If I had to do this all over again, I would absolutely book with Carolina Music Planner again, and you should too!

    Perfect addition to our ceremony and cocktail hour!

    We are so happy that we hired a strong duet from Carolina Music Planner for our wedding morning! Guests loved them and my brother even said it was one of his favorite parts was listening to the pop cover songs! They even were able to add a last minute request that we had to the ceremony for our unity symbol. We will always remember walking down the aisle to “I can’t help falling in love with you” on the strings! So magical!

    Magical Wedding

    The music made the ceremony and the cocktail hour! Megan was so professional and got in touch with me immediately. The strings duo that played at my daughter’s wedding was amazing. We had several custom choices and those pieces made the ceremony extra special!

    The entire experience from start to finish was perfect. We had to changed our venue last minute from the hurricane and they helped make the transition so smooth. Very great on communication, showed up on time and was a beautiful performance!

    Carolina Music Planner

    Carolina Music Planner provided a violinist and a cellist for my son’s wedding at Gaines Lodge. To say they were awesome is an understatement. When provided with a special request, they were able to adapt the song to fit the occasion.They played for the ceremony and continued through dinner. Meghan was very easy to work with and very attentive to details. As a musician myself, I highly recommend them for all of your music needs.

    Great communication, professional performers, perfect music

    Megan with Carolina Music Planner is so great to work with. She is a great communicator and responds quickly to email. She is happy to work with my clients if they are having challenges choosing songs for their event. The performers always arrive on time and are very flexible and fun to work with. I would recommend this company without any hesitation, and have been working with them for many years. Jenn with Events by Kiersa (Asheville, NC)

    Wedding Trio

    Our instrumentalists were amazing! We had an interracial wedding with a Hindu ceremony in Asheville, NC and our trio played a diverse set list over the course of several hours. They first played the "Wedding Stars & Rings" and "Sweet Carolina" set lists for the prelude prior to our wedding ceremony. They then had a few Hindi songs they played for the processional. They then moved onto "Tonight's Gonna be a Good Night" and "Viva La Bruno and Ed", 2 hip hop, R&B and pop set lists, which were a huge hit! Finally, they did an impromptu collaboration with a tabla player (indian musical instrument) for 2 more Hindi songs. We could not be happier with their performance and broad musical range. And Megan was amazing to coordinate with (super responsive and helpful in selecting music)!

    Beautiful and effortless

    Megan from Carolina Music Planner was an absolute lifesaver for my daughter's wedding. We were completely lost at the start, but Megan guided us through the planning process with such grace and offered us a range of options to choose from. Her quick responses to our queries made everything so much easier.

    One special touch we requested was seamlessly incorporated into the arrangements, adding a beautiful and personalized element to the event. The trio she provided for the music was simply fabulous. Their performance exceeded all of our expectations and truly set the perfect atmosphere for the day.

    We are so thankful for her expertise and the beautiful music that added such a special touch to our daughter's wedding day. Megan's dedication to making everything just right truly made a difference and contributed to a memorable celebration that we will cherish forever.

    Awesome company!

    We would highly recommend Carolina Music Planner to anyone looking for live musicians at their wedding/event! We had a string quartet and they sounded better than we could have ever imagined! Everyone was very professional, answered in a timely manner, and sounded fantastic! 10/10 would book again!

    A magical ensemble

    The Carolina Music Planner ensemble was a true highlight of our ceremony. From the moment they began playing, their talent and professionalism were evident. The musicians displayed exceptional skill and precision, creating a beautiful and harmonious atmosphere that set the perfect tone for the entire event. The selection of music was diverse, ranging from classical pieces to modern hits, ensuring that there was something for everyone to enjoy. The ensemble's ability to adapt and seamlessly transition between songs was impressive, keeping the energy and flow of the celebration at its peak. Not only did they provide a wonderful backdrop for the wedding. The ensemble truly elevated the overall experience, leaving a lasting impression on all who attended. They were truly a spectacular touch for our ceremony.

    Great to work with & Wonderful Music

    Our wedding planner recommended Carolina Music Planners to play the instrumentals for our wedding ceremony. They were great to work with and played beautifully at the ceremony! We had a "get to know each other" meeting early on and they were super accommodating and happy to help us work out what would fit our ceremony best. They have a huge variety of instrumentals that they can perform which made even picking our music fun. Once we picked our songs out, they even found a special version of a song for my wife to walk down the aisle to. After we had our songs picked, they helped us cut our music down so that it would fit the amount of time that we had and the music they played during our ceremony was perfect. You could tell what each song was and the instrumentals sounded beautiful!!

    The orchestra did a great job playing the ceremony and then running over to do the cocktail hour immediately after. Great variety of music, and they made all the disney melodies very apparent even with just a violin and cello!

    Wonderful!

    We booked CMP early on in the wedding planning process and enjoyed working with them! They did a custom arrangement for our ceremony, which turned out so beautifully. We loved the mix of setlist options they had available for ceremony and cocktail hour — from rock and roll to pop to Disney, and everything in between! Very professional company with excellent service. We would highly recommend.

    Music lovers pay attention!!

    I wish I could give this team a MILLION stars! My husband and I hired them for our ceremony and cocktail hour music and they are PHENOMENAL. I chatted with Megan ahead of time on what songs we wanted to play, and as me and my husband are both varietal music lovers who love all kinds of music, we loved that they had pre-made playlists of not only the classics, but pop, rock and even 90s grunge! Cannot say enough great things about them!

    Love Music? Hire Carolina Music Planner

    I'm the girl who didn't dream about her wedding dress growing up but DID dream about her ceremony music. I always had a vision of what I wanted, including specific songs and vocals, and fulfilling that was high on my priority list. Megan with Carolina Music Planner, and Hannah Kaminer, our incredible performer, absolutely blew me out of the water. Hannah put together a great pre- and post- set, and absolutely blew us away with each of our specific song requests for the ceremony. My husband even cried (he never cries). Megan was super easy to work with and patient despite our multiple reschedules (covid), and I never worried that any details were missed. They are incredible professionals and incredible artists!

    Amazing Wedding Musicians!

    We had a fantastic experience with Carolina Music Planner for our Asheville wedding! We were in a pinch last minute to find musicians after an original plan fell through, and Megan helped put our minds at ease and put together the most amazing duo ever for our special day. We had a cello & violin duo and they were perfect. We loved getting to personalize our music selections with the options on the website and have them play both the ceremony and cocktail hour at The Farm a Gathering Place. I strongly recommend working with Carolina Music Planner if you want high quality and low stress for your wedding music needs!

    Great Music, Great Musicians

    Loved how easy it was to work with this vendor. Very creative playlists and although we did not get to preview our specific musicians we trusted that they would be professional and they absolutely were. This company took all of the stress out of finding/hiring quality musicians for our ceremony and cocktail hour.

    You NEED Carolina music planner at your wedding!!!

    I’m SO glad I had Carolina music planner at my ceremony. They created the most beautiful ambiance & everyone told me after the wedding how great they were. I walked down the aisle to Love Story by Taylor Swift and it could not have been more perfect. I was nervous at first that it would be too upbeat but they worked their magic and it sounded so good!! We also had a bit of a rain scare but they were flexible with us and performed after the rain went away. If you’re on the fence about having live music for your ceremony I say it’s absolutely worth it.

    Execeptional

    Carolina Music Planner was recommended as one of the vendors for the ceremony music for my wedding from my planner. Our wedding was on the front lawn at the Biltmore Estate, so we chose a 9 piece ensemble. Carolina Music Planner had an extensive amount of songs to choose from, which can make the decisions of what to play somewhat hard for me. After a phone call with Megan, I created my own list of songs I liked and she pieced together what would flow best while adding some additional options for flow. It was absolutely amazing and the range of music the musicians can play is very very impressive. All the guests were commenting how great they were! We played anything from Metallica, oldies, and pop!

    Amazing Musicians!

    We loved having Carolina Music Planner as a part of our wedding! We chose to have a violin and cello play during our ceremony and cocktail hour. The music sounded amazing and there were tons of songs for us to chose from! Additionally, the pre-established setlists were very well-crafted! We highly recommend Carolina Music Planner!

    Perfection

    Carolina Music Planner absolutely killed it for us. Planning, payments, communication- everything was just so easy. We have received so many compliments on how absolutely incredible the ceremony and cocktail hour music were and I honestly could not imagine that day without the gorgeous music that we had. We did a cello/violin combo and they were perfection on the songs we chose. Hearing my friends giggle from the other room when Zombie by The Cranberries came on while my dad and I were getting lined up was the best- I knew everyone was enjoying it. Dad and I walked out to Bittersweet Symphony and it was absolutely stunning, and my husband and I walked out to Kiss from a Rose. During the cocktail reception, I kept hearing people go "Wait is this Metallica?!" and so on was the very best. The playlist was just so great and it truly made the more formal parts of the day better than I could have imagined.

    Excellent, Excellent, Excellent

    Megan and her team provided music for our rehearsal dinner and wedding ceremony. They took the time to gather information on the style of music and individual songs we wanted, as well as offering suggestions when we weren't quite sure. The musicians have a wide range of music in their gallery, ranging from the most classic wedding songs to today's rock and roll and everything in between. This group was very professional and I would not hesitate to use them again. They were a major part of making my daughter's wedding a huge success.

    We had a good experience planning and personalizing the music service. Carolina Music Planner was very responsive during this process. The bluegrass duo that performed during our ceremony and cocktail hour was near flawless and a hit with our guests. They were a huge contributor to the environment we wanted to achieve on our wedding day!

    Wedding and Reception Music

    Carolina Music Planner was a Godsend! My husband and I planned our wedding remotely and did not have any music connections in the Greenville area. I was referred to Megan by a vendor I found online that was already booked. I was immediately impressed by how organized and easy the process was. Since CMP was performing for both the wedding and the reception, I went through the online playlists thoroughly and sent in my selections. Megan was delightfully responsive with suggestions to make the music fit the occasion perfectly. The weather the day of the event was clear but cold. The musicians were very flexible and adapted to the weather and the venue. The music turned out to be exactly what I wanted. Many guests commented on enjoying the variety of the music played. The whole process was easy and the results perfect.

    Best Part of the Wedding! Not kidding!!

    Words cannot describe how happy we are that we hired Carolina Music Planner to be apart of our special day!! Everyone was blown away with Megan and Michelle's talent and how much it added to the ceremony, cocktail hour and our dinner. The entire hiring and planning process was so easy! They worked with us on the playlist, and we were able to make some very special requests. Most of our songs were not conventional, and Megan and Michele made them sounded so elegant. At one point during dinner, I noticed they were playing one of my all time favorite songs and it made my tear up! I had to run up and give them a hug afterwards. All of our guests loved them, and they really went above and beyond for us! By the end of the night, we had made two new best friends!!
    We could not recommend them enough!
    Thank you Megan and Michelle!!! We will forever cherish the songs and memories you created!

    Wonderful Experience!

    Carolina Music Planner was such a great choice for our wedding music. We purchased the ceremony and cocktail hour package and it was absolutely perfect. The musicians were incredibly talented and the team was easy to work with throughout the planning process. We would absolutely recommend Carolina Music Planner to other couples!

    Talented and Versatile

    Planning with Carolina Music Planner was a breeze. Megan was prompt with providing details and answers to my questions. We loved they variety of music that they provided. We love many traditional songs, but also were able to include more modern pieces. Our only disappointment is that we (the bride and groom) did not get to listen to them more because we were taking photos! We were super pleased with their performance and professionalism, and it added a special touch to our ceremony and cocktail hour. Thank you!

    Our wedding band was AMAZING!!!! Under the Sun - with Carolina Music Planning. They totally brought down the house, learned crazy custom songs for us, and did fantastic renditions. Such talent and personal touch. We would recommend them to everyone - so versatile and worth every penny!

    Carolina Music Planner "A Must Have for Wedding Venue"

    My daughter’s “fairytale wedding” at the farm at Old Edwards in Highlands, North Carolina was absolutely PERFECT thanks in big part to the incredible talents provided by Carolina Music Planner. Megan Johnson Barnes and her talented associates provided the music for both our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. We chose to book the harp quartet and all I can say is that the music was stunningly beautiful! From our first contact, Megan was so helpful and informative. She was always prompt in returning emails and always so patient towards the bride and her mother in regard to just about everything: music selections, set list options, special requests, and even music tempos! An absolute professional and A+ caliber musician right here in the heart of North Carolina. Carolina Music Planner is a MUST HAVE if you are planning a wedding. These talented musicians made my daughter’s wedding day extra special! Our guests are still talking about the beautiful music!

    Absolutely amazing!

    Megan made my sister's dream wedding a reality. The music was phenomenal. The orchestra was perfect. DJ Vinny was great. Everything was curated to perfection. It was as if The Biltmore turned into something out of a Disney movie. I legitimately felt as if I was in Disney World. Having worked in the music industry for a long time, I can honestly say this was one of the best events I've ever seen put together.

    CMP was responsive, accommodating, and professional. They were on time, played beautifully, were prepared to adapt during unpredictable weather, and were just all around lovely human beings. It's as if Meghan (the owner) and I were just old friends catching up. To add an elegant and intimate touch to your day.....definitely invite their musical gifts to share with everyone!

    Beautiful music at our ceremony and cocktail hour

    We initially hired a violinist for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and that fell through a few months prior to our wedding. I was recommended to use Carolina Music Planner from a group on Facebook. When I reached out, Megan Johnson-Barnes was so timely in responding to my inquiry and even got on the phone with me to discuss what we were looking for and to walk me through our options. While we initially planned to have a violinist, she sold us on going with a cello and keyboard duo- something we never would have considered. She sent us a few samples to listen to and we loved it. We are so happy that we decided to go that route - it was a little more unique and our guests loved the music at our wedding. Megan was great to work with - she was very responsive and accommodating to what we were looking for to make our vision a reality. The ceremony was beautiful thanks to our musicians and made the cocktail hour so much more special. Anyone who is looking for musicians for their wedding - I can promise you that you will be beyond happy with their services so you can look no further.

    Absolutely Perfect

    I loved working with Megan and Carolina Music Planners. She understood my vision and happily learned the versions of the songs I wanted. She was familiar with my venue (Pretty Place) and I didn't have to do anything beyond tell her what I wanted. I would use her and them again in a heartbeat.

    Megan and her team made our wedding feel like a wedding!

    We had a string trio playing gorgeous music for our wedding, and Megan also coordinated a DJ for us! We were preparing our wedding during COVID and didn't know if we'd be able to have dancing, and when we started thinking we could, Megan found a great DJ for us at relatively last minute (Ryan Barber!!). The ceremony musicians played such beautiful music for us and really transformed the space and set the mood. And Megan worked with us and my sister and she's so available and open and supportive. They were great.

    Simply Elegant!

    The folks at Carolina Music Planner were so easy to work with for our wedding this past weekend. We had a cellist and violinist for our wedding ceremony. I had many guests say how lovely the preceremony music was. I also appreciate the professionalism and flexibility of the group, which allowed me to customize our processional as well as a musical interlude. It was exactly what we wanted for the ceremony!

    Perfect for Outdoor Venue

    They were perfect for our outdoor Asheville ceremony! The cellist & violinist played modern music with a classical touch that fit in so well with the surroundings. Very romantic, brought out all the feels! Live string music beats a speaker and sound system any day.

    Carolina Music Planner made our ceremony and cocktail hour so special!

    We had a string trio from Carolina Music Planner at our ceremony and cocktail hour at our May 2021 wedding on the rooftop at Highland Brewing in Asheville, NC.

    Megan was an absolute pleasure to work with and the musicians were amazing!! Walking down the aisle to a string rendition of "Your Song" gave me all the feels and I don't think it would have felt nearly as special without it.

    The live string music was the highlight of the evening for many of our guests - thank you for helping to make our wedding extra special!

    Fantastic Music, Highly Varied Repertoire

    Megan was fantastic to work with from the start! She was very responsive and recommended a package for our ceremony and reception that fit our budget after hearing our needs. Our musicians, Jorge and Elizabeth, were fantastic! They learned two custom pieces that we requested and knocked them out of the park! We received many compliments on the quality of the music and the wide variety of music that was played. I highly recommend working with Megan and the team at Carolina Music Planner for any event!

    True musicians

    You know how window treatments can be seen as the jewelry on a home? Live musicians are the difference between upscale sophistication and home made ceremony.

    These musicians are incredibly talented and are dressed to the nines. Take it from me- I have played the flute for my whole life- these guys are awesome!!

    Beautiful music and very responsive

    We contacted Carolina Music Planner to discuss live music for our Nov. 2020 wedding. Megan was so incredibly responsive to our needs that we didn't even look at other vendors. The day of the ceremony, Paul and Nora played beautifully and helped make the day even more memorable. We would highly recommend Carolina Music Planner to anyone planning a wedding in the Asheville area.

    Musical Perfection

    Choosing Carolina Music Planner for our ceremony and cocktail hour was one of the easiest decisions we made. Megan was amazing and went above and beyond from the first time we spoke over the phone when she offered recommendations for other vendors (we had a destination wedding). The questionnaire that is sent out after booking is easy to complete and helps you plan out your musically selections perfectly. Teresa and Emmalee played beautifully and we received rave reviews from our guests on this violin and cello duo’s performance. I would absolutely recommend Carolina Music Planner to anyone looking to add this personalized touch to their wedding.

    Fantastic Music, Wonderful Musicians

    We worked with Carolina Music Planners recently on a fundraising event. Megan is incredibly professional and pleasant to work with. The musicians who performed the night of the event were so talented. I heard from many of the guests that the evening exceeded their expectations and I believe that was due in large part to the ambience and music provided by Carolina Music Planners.

    Soundtrack to our fairytale!

    Carolina Music Planner is a top notch vendor! Megan was so kind and responsive to my (many) emails. The music was something that my husband and I were both very excited about and Megan was so patient with our emails, making sure that the arrangements were exactly what we wanted and suggesting songs when we got stumped. We had a violin and cello duo for our ceremony and keyboard for our reception. Megan, Paul, and Chelsea are incredibly talented and professional. Thank you for being part of our day and playing the soundtrack to our fairytale day!

    Amazing ceremony music and more

    Carolina Music planner provided amazing music for our pre ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner. Megan the founder was so easy to work with and their format makes it easy to pick music. By the time our wedding rolled around I felt like she was my friend. I knew I had nothing to worry about as far as our music going smoothly. Hire they! Several guests commented on how great they were.

    We had a cello/harp duo for our wedding ceremony and they agreed to play at our cocktail hour, even though it was in a different location. Megan was a delight to work with and even learned two songs that my husband and I requested! The duo was amazing and added such a nice touch to our day! Even our guests were gushing over their performance. Our only regret is that we didn’t book them for a longer time period!

    Perfect addition to our wedding

    Megan and Paul were wonderful! The Cello and violin duo were the perfect addition to our wedding ceremony and really made the day extra special. Megan was quick to respond to any emails and questions I had making the whole process really simple and easy.

    Great music company!

    Hiring Carolina Music Planner for my wedding was the best choice I could have made! From the very start I was in contact with Megan who was my cello player for the ceremony. Megan was very professional, communicated well, and was so sweet! Her music was also amazing, and made my dream come to life. I would recommend this company to anyone looking for live music players.

    Music Vendor

    Excellent. My sister is a music teacher and she told me how great they played!!! I know if she said it that they were fabulous as she can be quite critical. They were a great addition to my daughter's wedding.

    Megan and her team are the best!

    Choosing Carolina Music Planner for our wedding was one of our best and easiest decisions! I reached out via email and then had a phone conversation with Megan, the owner. I loved talking with her and learning about the variety of packages they offer. My engagement was relatively short, so I was thankful that CMP had a large team and still had available musicians for my date. Megan's model is so organized; I loved browsing and choosing from the thoughtfully pre-arranged set lists for our cocktail hour.

    When COVID-19 shifted our plans and we changed venues, Megan was flexible and accommodating, and always pleasant to communicate with. I was SO happy that she was the cellist at my wedding - meeting her in person and hearing her play was so special! She and Teresa, the violinist, were wonderful. I absolutely recommend Carolina Music Planner - they will exceed your expectations!

    Carolina Music Planner was amazing!

    Megan was so so so helpful!! I was a “COVID bride” and lots of things had to change but Megan was so kind through the whole process! I had a vision on a single gold harp from when I was a little girl and Megan made it happen! I meet them at the Wedding festival in Greenville the gave the most reasonable prices in the upstate! If you hire them, know that you are in good hands!

    Beautiful music performed by beautiful people!

    Everyone we worked with was so fantastic! Megan was quick to respond when I had to change things up for my wedding due to COVID. Nora and Teresa carried their instruments to the top of max patch for us and I know it wouldn’t have been the same without their beautiful music. I can’t thank them enough for making our day perfect!

    So happy Carolina Music Planner was part of our special day

    We had the pleasure of having Megan and Paul play at our wedding. We changed locations last minute which required them to drive an extra 2 hours. They were happy to make it work. Megan was always available to talk in the planning period when we had questions and helped us find the perfect music for our ceremony. Their music is beautiful and they are very talented. Would recommend them to anyone. 10 out of 10!!

    Sounded Amazing

    Exactly what we were looking for in ceremony music. They sounded amazing, listening to our desire for romantic, sweet music for the ceremony and then some jazzier, upbeat tunes for the cocktail party. Very beautiful sound and would absolutely recommend!

    Stunning cello music by Lauren!

    Lauren played cello for our ceremony and cocktail hour and we couldn't have picked anyone better! Lauren was super sweet and the music was beyond amazing!!! She was very professional, played every piece we requested, and the cello music was absolutely perfect for the venue. The music for both events was gorgeous. Also, Megan was great at coordinating and communicating beforehand. We would highly recommend Carolina Music Planner for any event!

    Megan was so easy to work with and did such a great job at my wedding, I was actually sad I wasn’t able to hear the cello and harp music at cocktail hour so I snuck around closer to listen! I received so many compliments on their work and would highly recommend them to anyone. Also, I should mention that Megan gave up her birthday night to play my wedding. Happy belated birthday!

    Absolutley Beautiful Music!

    We could not have been more pleased with Megan and Michelle playing a duo of cello and harp for our daughters wedding! They are both amazingly talented musicians and added that extra special touch to the ceremony. Professional, friendly and very easy to work with in every step of the planning- picking out the music we wanted played, timing of such etc. We received so many compliments from our guest about the quality of the music that was played. I would highly recommend them and would most definitely hire them again!

    Our FAVORITE part of our wedding day!!!!

    Hiring Carolina Music Planner was truly the best decision we made for our wedding day! Beginning with my initial phone call with Megan, she was full of so much energy and passion, we had no doubt we wanted to work with them. She was extremely responsive, helpful and accommodating throughout the entire planning process which is invaluable to a bride-to-be. We chose a harp and cello duo and simply cannot put into words how incredibly talented and wonderful these two ladies are! The element of beauty and elegance their music added to our special day is indescribable. We received so many compliments from our guests who not only loved their music but felt they fit in like family. We cannot thank Megan and Michelle enough for everything!! xo :)

    String duo & DJ

    Carolina Music Planner provided a cellist, violinist, & DJ for our wedding this month. The string duo was beautiful and the DJ & his wife were fun and kept our crowd dancing most of the night. They stayed on cue with our timeline and were flexible with the details. We had a specific playlist that we had been curating for a year that he drew from in a way that made sense. Megan was easy to communicate with and made the process less stressful with questionnaires to fill out regarding our preferences.

    Seamless Communication, Beautiful Music!

    Of all our vendors for our August 10, 2019 wedding, Megan was the most responsive and helpful in her communication. She worked with us to create a tailored music package that included beautiful string arrangements for our ceremony and cocktail hour and a dance band for our reception. Her prices were fair and she was respectful of our budget. It was so nice to be able to have one point of contact for all of the wedding music. We are so thankful we met Megan and can't recommend her team at Carolina Music Planners enough!!

    Magical touch!

    Carolina Music Planner was perfect for our garden wedding! We definitely didn’t think strings would be in our budget but they are so reasonably priced and the atmosphere their music adds is value way beyond what you’ll pay. On top of it they were so easy to work with and seemed genuinely excited to share in our wedding day. So happy we made the decision to book with them! Even a month after our wedding we’re still having people tell us what a special touch the strings were! Thank you, ladies!!!

    Awesome ceremony music in the asheville area

    What a fantastic group to work with! I highly recommend Megan in the Asheville and North Carolina area! She was so accommodating and listened to all of my requests! Her group was so fantastic they even learned a 70s song for my husband and I to walk down the aisle after our announcement as man and wife! They were the best! So wish we had a videographer to listen to her beautiful performance in full! My guest raves about how wonderful the group sounded!

    I highly recommend Carolina Music Planner! We booked them last minute and Megan scrambled to do everything she could to find us a musician for our big day! I had a very unique song request for the bridal march and the musician followed through without a hitch, and I couldn't have asked for more! Their music selection is vast and they can play just about anything you can imagine, I definitely recommend booking CMP as soon as possible, and I know that if I ever needed a musician for a large event again, these guys are my top pick! Thank you guys so very much for making my special day sound so amazing!!
