Live music for weddings across Perth

Hire a wedding singer, an acoustic duo, a band or a DJ, and we run everything after "yes".

Open Dawn is a Perth live entertainment agency run by a working musician. We book professional musicians and DJs for weddings, match the act to each part of your day, brief them on your run sheet and your venue, and confirm the lot in writing. You deal with one person and get one invoice. The performers turn up, set up and play, and you get married.

Yannai, who runs Open Dawn, has played more than 500 gigs himself and has booked live music for rooms from The Landing in Alkimos to Lake Karrinyup Country Club. That is the standard your day is booked against.

Ceremony, canapés and reception

Three different jobs, often three different sounds. We match each one rather than stretching one act across a day it does not fit.

The ceremony

Acoustic music as guests arrive, the song you walk in to, and something worth signing to. A soloist or duo, unplugged or lightly amplified, matched to the space and the moment.

The canapé hour

The stretch between the ceremony and the reception is where an afternoon either hums or stalls. A relaxed acoustic set keeps the energy warm while the photos happen.

The reception

Dinner sets that stay under the conversation, then a band or DJ that gets the room on its feet. Volume, set times and the last song, all agreed before the day.

How booking wedding musicians works

Step one

Tell us about the day

The venue, the date, the rough running order and what you want it to sound like. A phone call or the form, whichever suits.

Step two

We match and quote

You get performers suggested for each part of the day and one clear quote for the whole thing. No surprises later.

Step three

Confirmed in writing

Times, sets, equipment and contact details, all written down before the day. The musicians arrive briefed. You just enjoy it.

Questions couples ask

How much does a wedding musician cost in Perth?

Every wedding is quoted for the day itself, because a twenty-minute ceremony set and a full evening of live music are different jobs. Tell us the venue, the times and what you want the day to sound like, and you get one clear quote covering the whole day.

Can the same musicians play the ceremony and the reception?

Usually, yes. A soloist or duo can carry the ceremony and canapés acoustically and then lift for the evening, or we book separate acts for each part of the day. It depends on the spaces and the running order, and we work that out with you before anything is confirmed.

Do the musicians bring their own equipment?

Yes. Every performer we book brings their own instruments and PA, sets up before your guests are seated and packs down without fuss. If your venue has quirks, tell us and we brief the act on them before the day.

What kind of music can we have at our wedding?

Acoustic soloists, duos, full bands and DJs, across the styles that suit a wedding. Tell us what you both listen to and what you want each part of the day to feel like, and we match performers who play it.

Which areas of Perth do you cover for weddings?

All of the Perth metro area, and we travel beyond it for the right day. City rooms, wineries, function centres, backyards and beaches all work. Tell us where you are getting married and we will tell you what suits the space.

How far ahead should we book wedding musicians?

As early as you can. A wedding date is fixed, and popular Saturdays fill up first. Ask about your date and you will know straight away whether it is free.
