LiveNote Booking confirmation and technical rider Solo Ceremony Set · from USD 350
Solo singer, ceremony and drinks, 6 June
Manchester. Two sets, three requested songs, one of which we have flagged.
Ella plays the ceremony and the drinks reception. Two things need you before April: the third song you requested is not one she can do justice to solo, and your venue has a sound limiter that nobody has told us the setting of.
Ella Brennan, solo voice and guitar, Saturday 6 June 2027. Ceremony set 14:00, drinks set 15:30 to 16:30. Two of your three song requests are confirmed and learned. The third needs a conversation. The venue's sound limiter setting must be confirmed by 6 April because it decides whether she can play acoustically at all.

The songs
Three requests, and the one that does not work

| Signing song, your choice | During the register | Confirmed. Already in her repertoire |
| Bohemian Rhapsody | Recessional | Flagged. See below |
- Confirm the recessional by 6 April so she has time to arrange it
- Send any do not play list. Most couples have one and forget to mention it
- Decide whether you want her to sing during the drinks or play instrumentally so people can talk
- Tell us if anyone is making a speech in her sets, because she will stop
The venue
The limiter question, and why it matters more than it sounds
Your venue has a sound limiter. Nobody on your side or ours yet knows what it is set to, and for an acoustic act that is the difference between a normal afternoon and an unusable one.
| Limiter setting | What it means for a solo acoustic act |
|---|---|
| No limiter, or above 95 dB | No issue at all |
| 90 to 95 dB | Fine. She plays well within it |
| 85 to 90 dB | Workable. She sets the PA lower and it is quieter but fine |
| Below 85 dB | A single voice and an acoustic guitar can trip it. Applause alone can trip it |
Below 85 dB the limiter cuts the power, which means the PA and sometimes the venue lighting go off mid song and take 30 seconds to reset. It is not a volume problem, it is a power cut problem, and it is unrecoverable in the middle of a processional.
If she cannot sing
Substitution, for a singer
A guitarist with a broken finger can be deputised. A singer who has lost her voice cannot be replaced by someone who sounds the same, and pretending otherwise is how couples get a stranger at their ceremony.
| Situation | What we do | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Ella is unwell more than 7 days out | Offer Joss Whitaker, named deputy, with footage | Accept, or full refund |
| Ella is unwell inside 7 days | Joss if he is free, otherwise we say so honestly | Accept, or full refund |
| Nobody suitable is available | We tell you as early as we know | Full refund, and help finding someone |
| You do not want the deputy | Nothing further from us | Full refund |
| Voice goes on the day itself | She plays instrumentally, and we refund the vocal element | Partial refund, USD 180 |
| You postpone the wedding | Fee held against a new date for 18 months | No loss |
Joss Whitaker's footage is in your pack today rather than being produced in a crisis. He is a different singer, not a copy, and the honest position is that you should watch him now and tell us if he is not acceptable.
