I just got married in CA a month ago, then moved to Wisconsin to be with the hubby for the next 3 years! Don't know much about Wisconsin, but I loved planning our wedding!&nbsp;</p> <p>5peonies,</p> <p>&nbsp;My husband is in med school, and he has classmates that perform for weddings all the time. I don't know how much they charge, but we're in Madison. Let me know if you're interested in their info.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/woo-hoo-wisco/page/2#post-84362 Fri, 12 Sep 2008 12:29:22 +0000 izzybride 84362@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Wow, a harpist sounds so romantic and <em>perfect</em> for a wedding!&nbsp; </p> <p>&nbsp;We are getting married at the Gesu church on the Marquette campus in Milwaukee and they are ridiculously strick about everything.&nbsp; They want us to use their recommended musicians (understandable - it's probably less rehearsal time).&nbsp; They are charging $225 per musician.&nbsp; </p> <p>&nbsp;I know <em>nothing</em> about music, but I always love the weddings that have the string quartets.&nbsp; Is $225 per musician a little high or average?
