About
The House of Cards Music is a full-service boutique music booking agency which features some of Portland's most eclectic musical performers, and stacks the deck in your favor. It is owned by professional musicians Jen Bernard and Pete Krebs, and showcases the talents of Portland's hippest musicians and bands. We feature The Ariel Consort Chamber Ensemble for ceremonies and cocktail hours, and many other great bands for receptions, such a The Stolen Sweets, The Pete Krebs Trio, Sneakin' Out, Vagabond Opera, 3 Leg Torso and many others. Parisian gypsy jazz from the '30s? Mind-bending Eastern Euro carnival insanity? Foot-stompin' bluegrass? Booty-shakin' new wave? Hauntingly beautiful chamber music? We've got it. Portland is a music town. No one should be stuck with boring, formulaic wedding music in a town as musically-rich as Portland.
Let us help you put together a fabulous ceremony/reception package to streamline your wedding. Or we're happy to book just your ceremony, or just your reception. Many reception bands can also play for ceremonies.
Jen and Pete have years of professional event experience under their belts, and know how to handle all the juicy logistics that crop up when you're planning an event. We're efficient, quick with communication and eager to help! Give us a call or shoot us an email to get the process started. We have great ideas, and we're excited to help you think outside the box with your wedding music.

Professional Network & Endorsements
Beautiful music played by professional musicians! The couple can choose any combination of instruments and The Ariel Consort will make it happen.
I am not only a VERY happy past client of The Ariel Consort, I am also a wedding planner and hire this group on a very regular basis. I have worked with Jen and The Ariel Consort for years and have been nothing less than thrilled with their level of professionalism, talent and flexibility. When it came time to plan my own wedding, I knew instantly that I would call on The Ariel Consort. Once again, they went above and beyond and several of my guests commented on what a talented group they are. I continue to recommend The Ariel Consort to my clients with no reservations!
Jen is an absolute delight! Talented, beautiful, funny, organized and driven. This is a woman who gets things done and has a ball doing it. Let The House of Cards take care of all your musical needs and just enjoy the experience!
