Crafting Musical Elegance at Bella Collina
LAUREN & TYLER | 04/08/2021
Performing at weddings is always a special honor, but some moments stand out as truly extraordinary. Such was the case when I had the privilege of singing and playing at Lauren and Tyler's wedding hosted at Bella Collina. From the moment they shared their song requests to the final chord of my guitar, it was a journey filled with heartwarming moments and unforgettable memories.
Lauren's graceful walk down the aisle to "Can't Help Falling in Love" set the tone for a day brimming with romance and elegance. Their song choices held profound meaning, and I was determined to make their wedding day exceptional. As I strummed the first chords and sang "Beginning, Middle, End" for their first dance, the atmosphere was filled with love and deep emotion. It was an extraordinary feeling to see the guests initially mistaking my live performance for a recording—a testament to the power of music to create moments that transcend reality.
Their kind words and appreciation reinforced why I love what I do, as I had the privilege of contributing to a day that they, their families, and their friends will cherish forever. Playing for their wedding at Bella Collina was a truly enchanting experience, and I'll forever be grateful for the opportunity to be a part of their celebration.

Better Than Any Recording - Jaw Dropping
Let's be honest picking a musician to sing your hand selected song that means so much to you on your wedding day can be a feat. Picking Erica was the best decision and hearing her in person at my wedding was even more amazing than I was even ready for. All my guests thought we had a recording playing until they saw her playing with her guitar. Not only is her voice amazing but she is the absolutely sweetest human and if you have any doubts about who to pick for your wedding day music Erica is without a doubt the best option. Seriously thank you again Erica our day was absolutely perfect!
Erica was exactly what we were looking for when it came to our wedding. An amazing singer who literally our guests thought she was a recording. Seriously blown away by her captivating voice and just how kind and sweet she was leading up to the wedding. Learned the songs I wanted for the processional and first dance and seriously if you read reviews before booking know you are making the best choice and will have no regrets with going with Erica. Thank you again Erica you made our day amazing and one we won’t forget!
Harmonizing Love at the Balcony Orlando
DARA & JAMES | 04/02/2022
Performing at Dara and James' wedding at the Balcony Orlando was an unforgettable experience. Despite the last-minute indoor venue change due to rain, their friends and family came together to celebrate their marriage with warmth and enthusiasm.
As guests arrived, it was a privilege to sing their hand-picked songs and orchestrate an atmosphere of calm elegance, in the midst of the shift in venue. These included "Everything" by Michael Buble, which set the perfect tone for the processional, and the classic "Wedding March" by Felix Mendelssohn, which accompanied Dara's walk down the aisle. As they officially became newlyweds, "You Are The Best Thing" by Ray LaMontagne played, resonating with the love that filled the room.
From the arrival of guests to the heartwarming moments during cocktail hour, it was an authentic and meaningful celebration and I am immensely grateful to have been a part of Dara and James' love story and their beautiful wedding day.

The Best Decision!!
When we first started planning our wedding we knew we wanted to mix live music in with our dj. I did a lot of research and found Erica on Instagram. Immediately on our consultation call she made us feel comfortable and like we could be friends in real life. It was a yes! Fast forward to week-of and she went above and beyond, playing exactly what we discussed and just really adding to our overall vibe and event. Our guests LOVED her also. We received so many compliments. She played from guest arrivals through cocktail hour. We would hire her again in a heartbeat.
A Magical Wedding at the Walt Disney World Swan Reserve
JENNIFER AND MAX | 02/11/2023
Performing for Jennifer and Max's wedding at the Walt Disney World Swan Reserve was a truly enchanting experience. Their choice of two iconic Louis Armstrong songs, "We Have All the Time in the World" for the processional and "What A Wonderful World" for Jennifer's walk down the aisle, set the stage for a magical ceremony.
The music filled the air with an overwhelming sense of love and joy as Jennifer gracefully made her way down the aisle. From the vantage point of the balcony at Disney's Swan Reserve, with the Epcot ball in the distance, it was a breathtaking sight to witness the union of these two souls amidst such beauty.
Being a part of their special day was an absolute pleasure, and I'm profoundly grateful for the opportunity. It's moments like these that remind me of the power of music to create lasting memories and infuse a sense of wonder into the most significant moments of our lives.

Highly recommend Aloha Erica!
I am so glad I found Aloha Erica and booked her to provide the music for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Erica listened to my vision for the ceremony music and brought it to life with beautiful renditions of the songs we picked. Erica also alleviated the stress of ensuring that the music cues/changes would work and were timed correctly. She provided music for cocktail hour and numerous guests commented how much they enjoyed the music. She is extremely professional and organized, and was a pleasure to work with. I absolutely would recommend Aloha Erica for any music wedding needs you may have!
