Columbus, OH

For many generations, the drama, thrill, and exhilaration of opera has been the exclusive domain of too few. At Opera Columbus, we’re out to refresh – to breathe new life – into the way opera is performed and presented. Gone are the days of formality and unspoken rules. We are creating an open, innovative, fun, and unexpected form of entertainment that reflects the young, vibrant, and diverse city in which we live and play. Tweet, hoot, clap, and enjoy the show in your own personal way. Dress as you like and express your pleasure without the restrictions of traditional propriety. Go ahead, no one here will judge you.

For our corporate holiday gathering on the stage of the Palace Theatre, Opera Columbus kicked off our program by singing "The Twelve Days of Christmas" from the balcony. It was spectacular and a moment the guests definitely remembered!

Mak Briggs Music 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $600
  • Serves Columbus, OH

My name is Mak - short for Makayla. I’ve been singing professionally since 2013; I also play piano and guitar. Part of the reason I love what I do is the connection music creates between people. I am well versed in pop, country, classic rock, R&B, and classical music. I can’t wait to talk about your event!

Makayla performed at my wedding ceremony and she was nothing but amazing! Working with Makayla was so easy and simple, she provided her own equipment and made sure all of my requests were met. After the ceremony, I receive many compliments on how beautiful her performance was. I would definitely recommend hiring Makayla not only is she the nicest person ever but has a beautiful voice that made our special day more special!

  • Solo performer

Through The Olivia Corner, she shares stories and music to uplift and encourage.

Awarded Best of Zola
Olivia played the harp at our wedding 9/1/2024 and did a wonderful job. It was the perfect added piece to our ceremony. She played before (while our guests and bridal party were getting seated/lining up), during (when my dad and I walked down), and after (when our guests exited) the ceremony and the music was just beautiful and peaceful. I met with her a few weeks prior to pick out the music we wanted and she had a lot of different songs/varieties to choose from. She was very responsive and showed up on time (which meant a lot being a bride). We couldn’t have asked for better music to be played for our wedding and our guests loved it/her too. We highly recommend her as a harpist for your wedding.

We couldn’t have asked for a better musician for our wedding! Erica was absolutely incredible—her energy was amazing, and she brought the exact romantic vibe we were hoping for.

From the moment we booked Ryan Shephard for our wedding, he was incredibly responsive, quick to answer any questions, and made the entire process easy. On the day of the wedding, Ryan was exactly what we had hoped for - he seamlessly executed our special requests beforehand and took requests from our guests all night long. My husband and I had a very specific vision in mind for the music, and Ryan brought it to life perfectly. My guests raved about him.

Devin Arrington, Virtuoso Violinist 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $450
  • Serves Columbus, OH for additional fees

Pittsburgh's Premier Solo Wedding Violinist! I'm a professional, award-winning violinist and composer with tons of wedding experience. Whether you wish for elegant classical music, toe-tapping fiddle tunes, or a favorite popular song, I can help you find that perfect sound! I offer high-end wedding sound at an affordable price. The instrument on which I perform is a gorgeous sounding violin made by MacArthur "genius" grant winner, Joseph Curtin. For outdoor weddings I use a Fishman SA330X Performance Audio System which provides terrific amplification without sacrificing the purity of acoustic violin.

Devin was absolutely wonderful when he played for my wedding in October 2018. Not only is he unbelievably talented, but he made the whole process very simple and easy for me (a very stressed bride!). He gave me a few options of songs I could use, and happily accepted my song ideas, as well. He worked so well with my church’s music director and figured out times they could practice together. All in all, Devin was kind, helpful, easy-going, relaxed, SO talented and truly made the music aspect of the wedding such a treat. I highly, highly recommend him.
