Black Canyon Inn wedding violinist
Black Canyon Inn in Estes Park is the mountain venue Extreme Strings plays most, with weddings there every year since 2023.
Yes, Extreme Strings plays Black Canyon Inn often: weddings in 2023, 2024 and 2025, and two in 2026. Jared plays the ceremony, cocktail hour outdoors and the reception, where he jams live over your DJ. He brings his own sound and battery power, and a travel fee may apply outside metro Denver.
Watch a Black Canyon Inn wedding
Two moments from one wedding at Black Canyon Inn: cocktail hour outdoors, then Jared jamming over the DJ on the dance floor.
How a Black Canyon Inn day usually runs
- Setup. Jared arrives about an hour before the music starts to set up and sound-check, so it's all done before guests arrive.
- Ceremony. Prelude about 30 minutes before the time on your invitation, a song for the wedding party and one for your entrance, quiet during the vows, then the recessional. How ceremony music works.
- Cocktail hour outdoors. The violin is wireless, so Jared plays among your guests, about 20 full songs an hour. Cocktail hour music.
- Reception. Your DJ plays whatever they want and Jared jams live on top, with nothing to pre-plan. Reception music.
Planning notes for the mountains
- Power and sound. Jared brings his own professional speakers, and his battery setup can power him outdoors for about a day where there's no outlet.
- Shade and weather. He needs shade to play. A fine mist is OK; once real rain falls, he moves with you to your covered or indoor backup. How weather works.
- Travel. Estes Park is about an hour and a half from Denver. A travel fee may apply outside metro Denver, and it's in your quote up front.
- Your songs. Pick every song in your BookLive client portal from the song list; 3 custom songs are included, then $25 each.
