Che - byron bay weddings + The figtree
The Onyx Duo created the most magical atmosphere for Kate & Will's wedding. As guests arrived they could hear the enchanting melodies & it really created the scene for the ceremony under the fig tree. Classic, sophisticated yet relaxed & welcoming. Simply magical.
After the ceremony it was beautiful to hear classical takes on modern melodies & it really added to & completed the look & feel the couple were looking for. The view, olive trees, grape vines, cocktails, canapes & classical music, it could not have been a better fit. Thank you Tara-Lee & Jordane for your amazing performance, your energy, your grace & style & most importantly your music!!

The idea of a piano and cello duet was perfect for our vision of our ceremony. You were recommended by our wedding planner. The arrangements were lovely, creative and performed beautifully. The musicality was fantastic. It fitted perfectly with the aesthetic of our ceremony. The Onyx duo were a wonderful addition to our wedding. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful music to accompany their ceremony and add a touch of class.

I had a very specific vision for my ceremony that required a duo with a cello or violin.
I came across the Onyx Duo, and not only did they fit the bill, but they absolutely exceeded my expectations! Although as the bride I didn’t get to sit and enjoy all the music on the day, the feedback from friends and family was it was the most beautiful ceremony music they had ever experienced. Not only the talent and professionalism, but I loved their taste in music, friendliness and warmth as people. Would highly recommend the Onyx Duo to everyone. They made our ceremony absolutely magical.
We love to play acoustically especially in churches. However depending on the wedding venue and number of guests in attendance we require a sound system the price of which is included in each of our packages. No extra costs for you.

During this time we ask you to complete the contract electronically and return it to us with a 30% non-refundable deposit. As soon as we receive BOTH the signed contract and the non-refundable deposit, we will email your booking confirmation.

We enjoy performing with guest singers and musicians. Since these tend to be unique to each wedding, please contact us with your specific requirements. Normally, these types of special performances require a rehearsal with the guest musician for which we do charge a fee.
do you accompany guest singers OR other musicians?
We enjoy playing for outdoor weddings. Our only concerns are the safety of our instruments. They must avoid direct exposure to the sun as this causes the instruments to warp. For this reason, we require complete shade while using our instruments outdoors. We request umbrellas are provided for us to perform under. We cannot perform in the rain; digital piano or electric cello and PA system are part of our set up and experience shows electricity and rain are not good friends!
A cello or piano cannot be exposed to rain or very high humidity as it will cause it to warp. If the cellist play on an electric cello, requirements remain the same. We regret that we cannot be responsible for weather related cancellations. All remaining balances are due and must be paid.
do you play for outdoor weddings?
Everyone has THEIR song. The song that was playing for your first kiss, your first date or the first time you said I love you. If there is a song you’ve always dreamed of walking down the aisle to that is not on our song list, at an additional cost, we can do a custom cello and piano song arrangement for up to 2 songs for any of your extra special moments.
can you learn a new song for our wedding?
We will arrive 90 minutes before your ceremony starts, leaving your wedding planner/celebrant plenty of opportunity to speak with us about cues and any additional final details. We provide everything including a sound system which is included in the price of each wedding package.
