Overview

Greetings, my name is Dale Hoopes. With 15 years of professional musical theatre experience, I've recently ventured into the realm of wedding singing, blending my love for performance with the joy of celebrating love. I specialize in timeless jazz standards—think Tony Bennett, Sinatra, Nat King Cole, and Michael Bublé—adding elegance and a classic touch to each event. For couples who want variety, I weave in pop, country, and musical theatre, crafting a unique setlist for each celebration. Clients can pick from my repertoire or request new songs; if I can learn it in time, I’ll happily include it. I strive to bring an upbeat, elegant atmosphere to make every moment unforgettable.

What to expect

We've all seen Father Of The Bride, right? That romantic comedy cinematic masterpiece from 1991, starring Steve Martin and Diane Keaton? We all remember that scene at the reception when an exhausted Steve Martin walks into his home full of guests while Steve Tyrell's version of The Way You Look Tonight begins to play. He glances around the room for a moment until he sees the beautiful bride, his daughter, Annie. Her smile lights up the room as she shows off her wedding ring to some close friends. His gaze shifts to his beautiful wife, Nina, who is chatting and laughing with some guests. He watches his son, Matty, tap the flower girl on the shoulder to ask her for a spin around the dance floor. Finally he catches a glimpse of his new son-in-law, Bryan, as he and his beautiful bride share their final dance of the evening.

That is precisely my vibe!! My aim is to always provide that type of classic, elegant, entertainment that will become the soundtrack to one of the most special days.

About

I was born and raised on the windy high plains of Laramie, Wyoming but moved to the Salt Lake Valley in the summer of 2019. When I am not onstage, backstage, or in rehearsals, I am probably at home spending time with my wonderful husband, Mason, and our two adorable doggos, Lucy and Mabel. These three are my constant source of love and support and I could not be luckier to have them in my life.

In addition to my love of musical theatre, I am also a huge history nerd. I am constantly amazed at how often my love of theatre intersects with my love of history. I am extremely proud to announce, to anyone who will listen, that I recently earned my BA in History from the University of Utah.
