Here are the packages I offer for your wedding:
Ceremony Music: This includes Prelude music, music for your family, the Bridal Party, the Bridal Processional, any special sections you may add to your ceremony, and the Recessional.
Cocktail Hour: If you’re looking for some music that your guests will never forget, I’m your guy. With a professional wireless system, I’m able to walk around and interact with your guests as I’m performing.
First Dance: If you and your fiancé have a song that means a lot to you, I am able to make an arrangement of it just for you.
Additional items that can be added to any package:
Custom Song:
While I have dozens of songs to choose from, if you have a particular song in mind for your wedding, I would love to create a custom song arrangement of it. I will perform this arrangement for the very first time at your wedding so you can walk down the aisle to music that no one has ever heard before.
Additional Musicians:
If you want to have a vocalist, pianist, or strings in your wedding, I have connections to some of Nashville's finest musicians. I handle all of the details and can put together a group of musicians if that is something you want in your wedding.
The genres of music I play varies from Bach to the Beatles. All of the arrangements I perform are on solo guitar, which will create a unique "one man band" sound that you and your guests will never forget. If you have a specific tune you want me to play, I can make a unique arrangement just for you that will only be heard at your wedding!
Reach out and let's make the soundtrack to your special day a unique and memorable one!

actly what I was seeking: contemporary, romantic, and meaningful. We had a very specific vision for our ceremony and always dreamed about what music we would use, so finding the right artist was important to us. We corresponded several times and Luke provided sound guidance and suggestions while actively listening to our vision throughout the planning process.
Instead of walking down the aisle with nerves, I felt completely present hearing our song play in the background. He is, without question, the best musician you could hire for your wedding. Thank you, Luke!

Luke did an amazing job and made our ceremony flow so beautifully 🤍 I highly recommend hiring Luke for your special event!
I reached out to Luke in the late summer months leading up to a November wedding. I had the hopes of putting together a secret performance for my wife during our wedding reception....
Initially I planned to do 2 covers and then also work with Luke on writing 1 original. I ended up scrapping the original but Luke kindly offered to work with me down the road to make that dream a reality one day soon.
Luke was a breeze and a joy to work with. We coordinated and got together for a few rehearsal sessions leading up to the big day. He is kind and talented to boot!
Not only did he flawlessly accompany me for 2 covers at the reception (in 20 degree temperatures...outdoors) but he also played some beautiful acoustic prelude music as our guests were getting seated for the ceremony. Not to mention he made the 3+ hour trek from Nashville to our wedding location.
Luke helped to make our special day that much more special. Thanks Luke!

He will deliver quality with care and intentionality!

Luke Sunderland's playing is both smooth and tasteful! Although I did not hire Luke for a wedding, I did hire him to play on my recording session at the REM Studio A in Nashville. ...
Luke is both personal and punctual, In fact, he showed up 15 minutes early to set up his gear. As soon as I was ready to record, Luke was as well. He had already taken his time to listen to the song and dial a sound that fit the song perfectly. Luke and the other musicians made this recording session one of the easiest and most rewarding I have ever done! Definitely hire Luke if you get a chance!
