Singers: booking wedding and ceremony performances online

Couples and families planning a wedding, a christening or a memorial want to know quickly if you're free on their date. Put a first call and your performance services on a booking page: they check your dates and book a call at any hour, you agree the details on the call, and each event date sits in your calendar as one booking, so it can't be taken twice.

On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description shown on your public page, and each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity. Give each slot one place.

Durations and prices are examples: set your own. Say what the price includes: travel, sound system, number of songs.

The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email and appears in the client's calendar file. Ask in the note for:

After the call, book the performance yourself from your bookings list on the event date. First and last name are enough; if you enter the client's email, they get a confirmation with a calendar file. Since a slot with one place leaves your page once booked, a date can't be booked by two couples. Book doesn't take payments or deposits, so say in the description how you take them.

Book a rehearsal with the musicians before the day as its own booking. On the day, say in the description how long before the ceremony you arrive to set up and sound-check.

Weekends between spring and autumn fill first. Open first-call slots on weekday evenings, when you're not performing. Slots repeat each week on the weekdays you choose until an end date.

Clients can't move or cancel online: they contact you, and rescheduling works across services. Book doesn't email clients about changes and sends no reminders. Your bookings sync with Google, iPhone or Mac calendars. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
