Yes. We travel regularly to Vaudreuil, Rigaud, Jean-sur-Richelieu, Ste-Hyacinthe Saint-Sauveur, Mont-Tremblant and have been as far as Montebello. Travel rates apply to locations further than 20km from the downtown core. The travel rates are based on one vehicle travelling to the venue location.

3. How far in advance should I book the musicians?

You can book your ensemble as early as one year in advance and as late as one day before the event provided (in the latter case) that the musicians are available on the requested date. It goes without saying that the earlier you book the better chances that we will have musicians available to play at your event.

5. What happens if I cancel my booking?

If you cancel your booking once the contract has been signed, you will forfeit your 50% deposit. The deposit amount is 50% of the agreed upon price.

For a guaranteed and immediate booking confirmation, your signed contract can be e-mailed to info@musicplanners.com in either a PDF or JPEG format and the cheque(s) can be mailed to our mailing address.

 Your date will be reserved until the contract and cheque have been both received. Should another client wish to book the same date, we will first contact you (if neither one has been received) before offering the date to another client.

Cancellations due to an event date change or unforeseen time change (of which Musicplanners was not notified or had not approved), an event cancellation or postponement, unfavourable weather conditions, illness are considered CANCELLED bookings. The deposit will be non-refundable.

8. What are your booking policies?

You will discuss the details of the contract with our representative either by phone or in person. We generally only meet clients in person when the client is booking musical services for a wedding ceremony. If the client requires assistance in selecting their ceremony music, a musician/representative of Musicplanners will play through pieces and assist in their choice of music.

As for receptions and corporate events, bar/batmitvahs, it is understood that the specific choice in pieces will be at the discretion of the musicians, who will have prior notification from the client of the styles of music they wish to have played or special requests that have been made in advance with Musicplanners. (ie. "We would like to hear mostly light classical music, a bit of jazz and some operatic themes".)

Once the contract has been signed and a 50% deposit amount has been received, your booking is CONFIRMED. If the contract is cancelled, you will forfeit the deposit. The deposit is 50% of the total agreed upon in the contract. To view our booking policies please click here.
