Matthew Lim

The act

The aisle entrance is where Matthew Lim's violin can give the wedding a refined musical focus before moving into modern cocktail material. His repertoire ranges from classical to contemporary music and can be performed on acoustic or electric violin. Packages can cover pre ceremony ambience, the aisle, signing and exit, then continue through cocktails, dinner entrances or the first dance. Later, high energy electric violin can perform with backing tracks or alongside your DJ on the dance floor. The moment to hear him is at the first dance, when a tailored violin feature can connect elegance with a song chosen for the couple.

Good to know

What to expect

Matthew turns up an hour before he plays, sets up and sound checks, so nothing is being sorted out while your guests are arriving. The playing itself is pitched to the moment: something romantic and quiet for a ceremony, something smoother for cocktails, or electric violin with real punch behind it when the dance floor opens. He talks to your coordinator, celebrant or DJ beforehand so the cues are agreed and nobody is guessing about when the aisle music starts.

On the day

A standard power outlet, and a flat dry patch to play on with shade or shelter if you're outdoors. He needs less than two metres of space, so he fits into corners that a band never would. Parking near the venue helps for unloading. He brings his own speakers, wireless gear and backing tracks, and if you've got a DJ he can run through their system instead.

Performance options

The ceremony package covers half an hour of music as guests arrive, then live playing for the aisle walk, the signing and the exit, with a song of your choosing included. Extend it and you add 45 to 60 minutes of modern cocktail music, acoustic or electric. A reception booking covers background music through dinner plus the moments that matter, entrances and the first dance. Then there's the electric violin dance floor set, which is the one that surprises people, played over backing tracks or with your DJ. Take all four as a full wedding booking, or pick the parts you need.
