Waterfront ceremonies, tented receptions, golden-hour cocktail hours, with an artist who brings everything, including the sound.
Built for the East End.
Hamptons weddings are outdoor weddings: a lawn in East Hampton, a beach in Montauk, a tent in Bridgehampton. Beautiful, and unforgiving for music, because there is no house sound system on a beach.
That is exactly what she plans for: she plays the East End season regularly, charity galas included. Where your venue has a system, her technical rider makes it plug-and-play; for lawns, tents and beachfronts without one, she can bring and run her own professional sound, so the music carries over the wind and the waves, and your vows stay above it.
The instrument is the conversation piece of the cocktail hour: a custom transparent violin, glowing as dusk falls over the water. And as the night arrives, the couture dress woven with light turns the first dance into the photo of the season.
Programs are designed with each couple: classical for the ceremony, film scores and pop over champagne, electro with a DJ when the dancing starts. She performs across the Hamptons, Long Island's North and South Forks, and the whole tri-state area.

The season, by moment.
How an East End day soundsThe ceremony
On the sand or under an arbor: classical violin carried by her own sound, tuned so the ocean stays the backdrop and never the competition.
Golden hour
The cocktail hour the East End was invented for — a program drifting from Bach toward film scores while the light does its work over the water.
The tent
Dinner on the classical violin between the tables; then the transparent violin begins to glow as dusk settles over the canvas.
The dance floor
The dress woven with light, the glowing violin over the DJ — the first dance that ends up as the photo of the season.
The gown at full spread, the violin in hand — see it with sound

Local FAQHow much does a wedding violinist cost in the Hamptons?
East End programs begin at $1,300, travel included, and scale with what you build: ceremony only, ceremony and cocktail hour, or the full evening. Every quote is exact, per event, and holds your date for 7 days.
Can she play a beach ceremony with no power and no sound system?
Yes — that is precisely what her setup is built for. She brings and runs her own concert-grade sound, so the processional carries over wind and waves and your vows stay above both.
How early do Hamptons dates book?
A Hamptons summer holds fewer than twenty Saturdays, and they are typically spoken for 8–10 months ahead. If your date is closer, ask anyway — calendars move.
Do you cover the North Fork and the vineyards?
Yes — the East End on both forks, and the rest of Long Island has its own page. Vineyard ceremonies are a natural fit for the self-contained sound.
Can one artist cover ceremony, cocktail hour and reception?
Yes, and out East it is the format that makes the most sense: no band to move between lawn, tent and terrace — one artist, one setup, the whole golden hour.
Do you also provide other wedding musicians for the East End?
Yes. Sadie is a self-contained wedding musician on her own, and for larger tented receptions her hand-picked network of DJ, drums and saxophone can be assembled to your event.
From the journal: a garden ceremony, told from the inside. The rest of the island: Long Island weddings. Further east still: Rhode Island and Newport, told in the journal at The Bohlin. Celebrating on the water? Yacht & harbor events. The full wedding day, explained: weddings.
