How much load-in and setup time does the orchestra require?
In order to be fully loaded-in, setup and sound-checked by the time your cocktail reception begins, we require 3-4 hours. However, sometimes, the cocktail reception, dinner and dancing are all in the same room. This usually gives us only 1 hour to load-in, setup and sound check, while your party is in another room for the cocktail reception. We are more than willing to accommodate such a tight time frame; however, we do reserve the right to charge a premium, because of the additional labor required to properly accomplish this task within the 1 hour time frame.
