October 23, 2026Beautiful ceremony music!
Triana did a great job playing the cello for my wedding ceremony. The music was beautiful and she did a great job timing out the songs and making it flow. She even learned a song that I requested!

August 12, 2026Wonderful Performance and Professional Presence
We hired the incredible Triana for our company's garden dinner party at the Arboretum.
Triana was exactly what we were hoping for for our event. She was timely, prepared and so sweet! Her music was amazing and I received so many compliments from the guests. I thoroughly enjoyed her modern and classical pieces. Just wonderful. We will be hiring her again for sure!
Thank you for your great work.

July 16, 2026Excellent music for wedding!
Triana was really great to work with! She made sure the music selection was tailored to our ceremony and venue, and took the time to narrow down the best options for us.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with her!

What to expect
Ceremony Breakdown
After we confirm the date and time of your wedding, I will send you a list of songs to choose from for the processional, recessional and any other special moments you may have. I have all of the classic weddings songs in my repertoire and many more for you to choose from!
Prelude
This is the time while guests are arriving and getting seated. It sets an elegant tone and allows everyone to relax and enjoy the venue. I pick songs from my vast collection of music that suit the mood of the crowd.
Processional
The Bridal Party includes parents, the maid of honor, best man, bridesmaids, groomsmen, and any children such as the flower girl or ring bearer. Music that is joyful and fast paced are great picks to keep the energy up and everyone moving!
Bride Entrance
Slow songs are great as they remind the bride to walk very elegantly so that everyone can bask in her beauty! It’s also nice to have music that will bring a (happy) tear to everyone’s eyes 🙂
Unity Ceremony
A unity ceremony is a symbolic ritual performed during the service to represent two individuals or families joining as one. Common examples include pouring sand, lighting a candle, or handfasting. If you choose to have a unity ceremony it’s a great time for a short piece of music to be played!
Recessional
Recessional songs are played right as the officiant introduces the new happy couple to the audience. There is always a lot of clapping and it is wonderful to have a joyous, moving song to walk back down the aisle to and into your new life together!
Reception
Classical music is a great choice for a relaxed and classy reception or cocktail hour. It’s a nice segue while people are relaxing before the DJ takes over to start a festive night of dancing.

About
Greetings! Thank you so much for taking the time you consider me for your special event. I am extremely timely with questions via email or phone and will do everything to make sure that your special day goes perfectly!
About Me
I've lived all over the country and have performed at hundreds of weddings and special events, including a surprise engagement proposal at the airport! I moved from Los Angeles and now live in lovely Minnesota with my dog, kitty cat, and husband. When not playing the cello I am probably playing pickleball!
Additional booking notes
I have a very simple setup and only request that you place a regular sized chair where you would like me to be seated.
The cello sounds so gorgeous all by itself so I usually play acoustic indoors but will bring an amp for larger outdoor events. For outdoor events I will need access to an electrical outlet at least 30ft away.
