Cecilia’s beautiful voice was perfect for my daughter’s wedding Mass. She is professional and a pleasure to work with. My daughter & fiancé appreciated her input and suggestions when planning the music for the wedding and are so happy they chose her!
Cecilia brought tears to my eyes with her beautiful voice! She was great at providing direction and worked with us and our pianist to provide amazing music at our wedding. Would 100% recommend her!
I remember hearing Cecilia sing many years ago at a friend’s wedding and I always knew when my day came I would want her voice to be the soundtrack in our ceremony! I would recommend Cecilia for her voice alone but above that, Cecilia has a knowledge of the Catholic Church and history of music that provides a sense of security when selecting the music. Her guidance on songs to chose was beyond helpful while I selected the songs, which was very important to me.
10/5 recommend Cecilia Detwiler!!!!
Cecelia sang at both of our daughter's wedding ceremonies. I received so many compliments on the music at both. She was amazing. She is blessed with the most beautiful voice and is so kind and easy to work with. I would highly recommend her for any occasion.
There are not enough good things to say about Cecilia!!!! She is incredible! Not only does she have the most amazing voice, but she is also immensely kind and wonderfully thorough. She really took charge of the music for our wedding and was so incredible with organizing everything and communicating with all of our vendors- the church, the pianist, and the violinist. She is very responsive to all inquiries. Cecilia really went above and beyond for our wedding (in my opinion!). Not only did she meet with us and the pianist to select all of our music, but she also spent time and energy learning a totally new song that a friend of ours had written. She and the pianist met privately and were able to figure out the music notes without having any sheet music and practiced. I have no idea how she did this, but Cecilia also arranged for the violinist to join in on the song! It was the most incredible, goosebump-inducing moment at the wedding! Truly so special. Every song that Cecilia sang was made all the more beautiful with her outstanding voice. She truly moved me to tears multiple times not only during the wedding but also during our music selection meeting! We got SO many compliments on our music (and her voice!) for the wedding. I cannot recommend her enough!
Cecilia sang at our Dec. 2020 wedding. She made a special day that much more.
She’s very talented, accommodating and easy to work with. We love her and will recommend her to our family and friends.
Cecilia sang at my wedding in October of 2020. Despite the global pandemic, we were able to have a beautiful ceremony at St. James thanks to Cecilia. She was incredibly accommodating and patient. A month prior, we went through the whole mass and picked out the songs together. I felt extremely comfortable that the music would be perfect that day, (and it was!) Her voice is absolutely stunning and I had multiple guests come up to me after the ceremony to talk about how beautiful the songs were in the mass. Thanks again Cecilia - it wouldn't have been the same without you!
Cecelia did an amazing job at my daughters wedding ! she worked beautifully with the organist and the violinist, she's well-versed in most every song and has great input and ideas to make the mass flow nicely . Would highly recommend her her voice is incredible
Cecelia sang at our daughter’s wedding September 26,2020. Mass was at St. Anthony of Padua church. Her voice filled the church and sent chills. My Aunt and Uncle that attended thought it was an angel from heaven! Highly recommend her!
Cecilia sang at our daughter’s wedding on 8/1/2020. We were so happy that she could sing at the wedding! Cecilia has such a beautiful voice! She is extremely talented and we received so many compliments on how beautiful the music was at the ceremony. Cecilia was also extremely reliable and professional! She was also helpful in assisting our daughter with her music selections. We are so grateful that Cecilia was a part of our daughter and son in law’s special day!
Cecilia was the soloist at our daughter's wedding and her voice filled the church with such a beautiful tone. Many guests commented on how meaningful the music was for them. Cecilia followed through every time I reached out to her and was flexible when the planning of the ceremony headed in a different direction. She contacted the church music director to coordinate our ceremony selections and arrived early at the church in order to make all preparations seamless. Booking Cecilia was a great decision!
Cecilia sang for our Nuptial Mass in December and we are so grateful that she did! One of the most important things for my husband and I as we planned out our ceremony was that we wanted the liturgy to be beautiful. Cecilia definitely helped make that happen! She worked with our parish music coordinator and organist so that everything went smoothly on the day of. We loved hearing our favorite hymns be sung by someone with such a beautiful voice. We are grateful for her musical talent that helped lift up everyone's hearts on our special day. Thank you again, Cecilia!
Cecilia sang for our wedding and we were so happy she did! She made every effort to make the process smooth. She helped with music suggestions, followed up with the music director, showed up early at the church to rehearse, and was so easy to work with. On top of all of this - she has the most beautiful voice! Everyone loved the music. Honestly look no further, You will be so happy with your choice.
Cecilia was absolutely amazing to work with! Besides her vocals being out of this world, communication was smooth and she was able to accommodate to so many of our requests. She sent us a list of songs months before the wedding that ranged from traditional to contemporary which was very important to us. She even learned a song that I wanted played while walking down the aisle and it was incredible! My husband and I also wanted multiple instruments and luckily Cecilia is well connected to the St. Louis music community and was able to set us up with a pianist as well. We received so many compliments about our music! With all the stress that comes with planning a wedding, the music was the easiest when working with Cecilia. I definitely recommend!
Choose Cecilia if you want all of your wedding ceremony dreams to come true! Her voice is absolutely incredible and she truly made our wedding ceremony even more special than we imagined. We had so many people come up to us after the ceremony complimenting the music and telling us how beautiful her singing was :) She was great/easy to work with leading up to the wedding day, and was very helpful in recommending a pianist for us as well (who also did an outstanding job). Everything was so perfect and we couldn't have asked for anything better!
Cecilia was absolutely wonderful at our wedding ceremony! We received so many compliments that the music at the ceremony was so beautiful which was even more meaningful because we got married in an older church where the sound system isn't that great and the microphones tend to echo. I love listening to the recordings guests took during the ceremony because we can hear Cecilia sing so clearly and gracefully. She was a joy to work with during our pre-wedding day meeting and was super helpful in our search for an organist/pianist to play with her. She helped keep me organized and provided plenty of suggestions so that all my fiance and I had to do was pick one or the other. Cecilia was a blessing to have sing at our wedding and we would definitely recommend her!
Cecilia was absolute perfection on my November wedding. We sat down months ahead of time and carefully chose each and every song. She was very thoughtful and patient with me as I was very picky and we went through many options to pick out the right songs to set the tone for our Mass. Cecilia's voice was absolutely gorgeous in St. Francis Xavier's church. She smiled as she sang and it literally lifted up everyone at Mass. Thank you Cecilia! I wish we could do it all over again!
Cecilia has the most beautiful voice, and I am forever grateful she was able to sing at our wedding. Several of our guests made comments of how wonderful her voice was. She is reliable and took the time to meet with us before hand to go over wedding songs! I would recommend Cecilia to anyone looking for a soloist!
We struggled so hard to find musicians for our wedding ceremony, and by the time we stumbled upon Cecilia's website it was less than 2 months to our wedding day. Fortunately for us, she was able to rearrange her schedule to sing at our ceremony and we couldn't be more grateful! She provided us with several recommendations for accompanists and actually went out of her way to help us book our organist as she knew how much trouble we had had finding someone. She has a fantastic voice and has in depth knowledge of the full Catholic mass. Cecilia was a true professional and I'd recommend her to anyone in the St. Louis area looking for a wedding soloist!
Cecilia was the soloist for our daughters wedding in the fall. She was incredible easy to work with and he voice is second to none. We had no less than 10 people come up to us at the reception to ask who our singer was. Outstanding voice. I would definitely have her sing at our next wedding without question.
Cecilia did a fantastic job at my daughter's wedding this past fall! She is the definition of professionalism, and takes such pride in her work. Out of everything that took place on this wonderful day, we received the most compliments on Cecilia's singing. We are so appreciative of the time she spent with us leading up to the wedding, picking out songs, and rehearsing with the pianist. She was extremely well-prepared. Cecilia is an outstanding choice for a wedding singer who humbly exudes confidence and poise. We are grateful that she shared her gift with us, and we highly recommend hiring her!
