Hi All!
I have 2 months left and am left with a lot to do! We are getting married outside in Boulder and will not have access to electicity. I would like to find a guitarist/violinist or two to play for about 30 mins before the ceremony and during the ceremony. Does anyone know any affordable musicians I could contact? We are on a tight budget- about $100.
Any Ideas?
Thanks!

    We used Michael Lancaster for acoustic guitar & he was FANTASTIC!  Not sure about budget...although I think he lives in Golden so Boulder wouldn't be too far for him.  We got married up in the Mtns & he played our ceremony (30 mins) and cocktail hours (60 mins)...you might be able to work with him for 30 minutes for $100.  I think it is worth contacting him!  Other ideas:  contact a local school /program & ask for music students who'd like to earn some extra cash! :)
    no identifiable siggy pictures anymore, thanks a lot stupid nest!

    Try Platte River Strings, I'm using them as a quartet for an hour for $400 so maybe less people will fit within your price range.  Their contact is a guy named Jesse, who is extremely helpful:

    Good luck!
