Hi all,

For my wedding, I originally tried to hire a friend/former colleague to do some transcriptions/arrangements for the band to play. They had some things come up, we miscommunicated, and now they won't be able to deliver.

No drama, but I'm still going to try and make this happen, because I've been pulling my old horn out of the closet in secret for the past 6 months every time I know my fiance is going to be gone for more than 2 hours.

Didn't want to go through the wedding band because I know who they use to do arrangements and I don't trust that they'll do a good job.

Looking for 2 songs:

Tom McGuire and the Brassholes - 2008
Couch - Lucky to be Stuck with You

Happy to edit the post to add more details if there are questions.

Wedding is early October, I'd like to be able to get charts to the band in 2 weeks.

The Couch song is our first dance (lyrics being tweaked a little)
The Tom McGuire song I'm hoping to jump in with the band and take the sax solo as a surprise to my new wife.

I absolutely can/will pay.

Instrumentation:
Vocals
Guitar
Keyboard
Bass
Drums
Sax
Trumpet
Trombone/Optional 2nd Sax

If you have some samples of your work, that would be awesome.

I'm getting married in a few months, and we decided my fiancée should walk down the aisle to Blink-182's "I'm feeling this".

This link is the inspiration:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrAasQU4rDY

The idea is that we'll basically play the first 50 seconds, which is slow/quiet-ish and doesn't really immediately let on that it's Blink until the chorus at 35 seconds. Just a little tease for the Blink fans and a special thing for us.

Then at that 50s break, the track is paused, we do the ceremony.
However, what I really like is that after the short ceremony, this will also be the "outro", and what I'm excited about is the crescendo-like build of the second half of the song. It's too much for the "walk-down-the-aisle" part, but perfect for the exit and when everyone is dispersing to the next thing. So, we essentially continue the track at 50s, and play the rest.

SO down to business: what I am looking to hire is a musician who can record a studio-quality recording of this song, fine-tuned for the above vision. Basically just keep the first 50 seconds sweet, then give us enough of a short break to pause so that when we un-pause it doesn't feel abrupt, and get really into it as the song builds. Ad-libs and little flourishes are fine as long as they don't distract from the Blink feeling. It really can be almost identical to the link if you're not a risk-taker.

I'm not really sure what the going rate for something like this is, but I am willing to pay for quality work and consider myself extremely fair and reasonable- let me know!
