Should your favourite melody not be included in our collection, we will gladly accommodate up to three special requests at no additional cost, ensuring your beloved songs are performed live exclusively for you on your significant event.

For additional song arrangements, we charge a fee of $200 + GST per song.

5. Cancellation Protection and Public Liability Insurance

In the event of a cancellation, we will offer a full credit valid for two years from the cancellation date, provided we are given at least 30 days’ notice.

If there is a government-imposed restriction rendering your event unfeasible and beyond your control, we will extend a full credit as long as we are informed a minimum of 48 hours in advance.

We hold comprehensive public liability insurance coverage of up to AUD 20 million, ensuring protection throughout Australia.
