Jane Peppler and Mappamundi were a pleasure to work with. Their sliding scale for weddings is a really AMAZING deal for someone having a small (in size and budget) wedding. If you are having a small wedding, I would definitely recommend contacting them to see what they are able to do in within your budget. Also, amazing is that the quality does not suffer in comparison. I was completely happy with all aspects of the service they provided. They handled my special requests, and my eclectic choice of music--folk for one part and American standards for another, with a little Celtic thrown in. They knew what they were doing and did it without any direction on my part the day of. I didn't have a wedding coordinator, so it would have been a big disaster to have a band that didn't know their business! My guests were really impressed with the music. Great vendors make planning a wedding SO MUCH EASIER. I have no reservations giving them 5 out of 5!!
