Recommendations for Live Wedding Music in Wichita, KS

Selecting live music for your wedding or event says a lot about your style. Wedding musicians in Wichita, KS play just as beautifully as pros in any major city - you just have to know who to contact.

I've put together a few recommendations for local wedding musicians and, while I'm partial to the flute, there are many stellar performers in the area on a variety of instruments (and many more than I'm highlighting today....). Good Luck!

Wichita Wedding Musician Contacts:

• David Lord - He owns and manages Air House Records in Wichita, KS and knows most of the gigging musicians in town. If you'd like classical guitar, a rock band, or anything in between ask him for a recommendation for who's around.
• ICTrio - If you're looking for a string quartet (or string quartet vibe at a lower price), these ladies do beautiful work.
• Rob Loren - He plays a lot of violin/fiddle/mandolin with an improv focus (bluegrass, country and/or celtic) and can put together a versatile ensemble as well.
  
• Tornado Alley Flute Ensemble - A professional flute ensemble featuring flutists on faculty at Kansas State University, Butler Community College (me), Southeastern Oklahoma State University, and Southwestern Oklahoma State University. If you'd like just a flute soloist or duo we're happy to pare it back, too.
  
• Wichita Symphony Musicians - Looking for a unique blend of players or (gasp) a bassoon soloist? The Wichita Symphony has contact info posted on its site for many of the musicians.
