Introducing

Bella Missa

beautiful duet

It all started with two friends and a love for beautiful music wrapped up in a 10 year journey together. Every opportunity has been used to share the music with loved ones, new friends, and old friends - any and all who shared their love for music.

Weddings - this soon became a Bella Missafavourite. These special occasions are already captivating in so many ways, and background music seemed to add another something special that is just about tangible at a wedding.

Music becomes tangible as you see a guest tapping their foot to the sound of a love song. It can be the smile as they recall the last time they heard that song and remember the good times. It is tangible when you look up and see people nod as they walk past saying: “I love that song!” As artists we enjoy this because the notes and lyrics are equally tangible to us whether nobody is watching or with an audience of 1000.

Weddings chapels and venues set in nature where often no power cables are laid, no microphones, amps or backtracks have been able to reach have become a particular favourite setting. We enjoy the purity and simplicity ofmusic that welcomes guests as they arrive, music that announces the bride and her father as they walk down the aisle and music as celebration continues with champagne and canapes.

This is the story of Bella Missa - which means a beautiful duet. We offer a tasteful arrangement of vocals accompanied by guitar to create the perfect ambiance for any occasion.
