Question and Answer interview with Allyson Briggs of Fleur Seule for the July Edition of Grace Ormonde’s Wedding Style

Wedding Style Magazine- Grace Ormonde

Q: How did you get started?

A: I have always loved performing at weddings! It is so fun to be celebrating the happiest day of someone’s life with their family and friends. My wedding was the best day of my life and I was inspired to bring that joy and energy to more couples through music.

Q: How would you describe your style?

A: I saw an opportunity to create musical experiences that match the elegance of luxury weddings. A lot of wedding bands play the same Top 40s material, but we create a very unique experience of classy music that is fun and danceable, while bringing back those hits you do not hear anymore! I sing classic music in 7 languages, which opens us up to a very wide variety of repertoire, and my attention to detail as I follow the flow of the evening and the guests is something that our previous wedding couples have loved. If you have a first dance song that is special to you, we will learn it, no matter what style or language, and bring the beauty and romance of what you heard, to life!

Q: What are your favorite moments?

A: I LOVE a grand entrance from Cocktail Hour into Reception! Imagine walking down an epic staircase while we play “La Vie en Rose” – It’s a scene from a movie! And of course, Ceremony Processionals always leave me a bit misty. I guess I’m very into entrances, they can be subtle and sweet, or lavish and grandiose. That’s what is so amazing about live music – It can create whatever movie scene you have in your mind.

Q: Do you work closely with the couples?

A: Yes! Once we move forward with booking Fleur Seule, I will share our full song catalogue to let you peruse and visualize your day. You can go through and select favorites, don’t-plays, first dances, etc. and I will help you fill in the blanks. Then I will customize our songlist for the entire day to fit the style and flow of your entire day, from ceremony to last dance. This day is all about you and I will make sure the ambiance is elegant, luxurious, and unforgettable.

Q : How far in advance should a couple reach out?

A: The earlier the better! We are booking out weddings 1-1.5 years out and honestly, the time flies by. I am available to chat by phone or zoom for an initial consultation, and if you would like to proceed, then we can dig in to the songlist, special requests, band line up, repertoire styles, all the fun details that will add up to make your big day magical.

I can’t wait to start planning your big day!
