  • Your ceremony is undoubtedly the most important and special part of your day. Currently one of Ireland’s most in-demand wedding singers - and with almost 90 5-star reviews here on WeddingsOnline - Stella has been singing professionally at ceremonies all over the country (churches/hotels...even gardens!) for more than 15 years now, and knows exactly how integral music is in setting the tone for the big day. Classically-trained, but with a vast song repertoire of classical, gospel, jazz, Irish and contemporary songs and of course traditional hymns, she has sung at weddings in no less than seven languages–including Elvish, for any “Lord of the Rings” fans! She sings and plays piano for the ceremony, so you don’t have to book an additional musician, and of course, she brings all her own equipment, so nothing is left to chance on the day.
  • Having sorted the ceremony – how about music for your drinks reception? Stella offers the option of a relaxed, easy-listening jazz set for this part of the day. Having been a headline act in the 2017 Cork Jazz Festival and returning there for the 2021 festival, the music of Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and Michael Buble is second nature to Stella, and her music provides a warm and stylish welcome to your guests as they arrive to the drinks reception. Stella is the preferred jazz music performer for both the 5* Merrion Hotel and 5* Powerscourt Hotel, so you’re in the most experienced of hands when you book her for your big day.

  • Stella studied singing and piano through the Royal Irish Academy of Music and more recently earned a Master’s Degree in Music. In 2014, she released her debut album to critical acclaim here and in the USA (in fact, is it currently on the Aer Lingus longhaul in-flight entertainment playlist, so be sure to check it out if you’re flying with Aer Lingus anytime soon!). On the back of its success, Stella has performed in Germany, Australia, the UK and Hong Kong. In fact, Amy Winehouse’s mother contacted Stella directly to tell her how much she loved Stella’s cover of one of her daughter’s songs on the album!
  • Stella is based in Dublin, and travels nationwide; she would be thrilled to chat to you about your music requirements for the big day. Feel free to drop her an email to get her complimentary of set guidelines on putting together the music programme for your ceremony!

  • Feel free to check out some of the fab reviews and "thank you" emails from some of Stella's previous couples. You'll see below that Ireland's media has been very kind to her too :)
      Sunday Independent: "a versatile singer who combines maturity with innocence, sophistication with sincerity"
  •   Irish Times: "...another level"
  •   Pure M Magazine: "she has a powerful command of her diamond cut-glass voice"
  •   All About Jazz:"Bass is a class act...her voice possesses soul, swing and pizzazz"
  •   Totally Dublin: "Bass truly is the full package"
  •   Evening Herald: "...incredibly versatile"

One word to describe Stella...Brilliant. We had seen Stella doing her Jazz set in Cafe en Seine afew years earlier and taught she was brilliant then, we even bought her cd from her. We had totally forgotten about her when looking for a wedding singer, We looked on line and loved her vocals and had her booked before we realized that it was the same Stella. Excellent choice, she even Learned a Song which we wanted played at the wedding, and done us so proud when she sang it. Stella is an all rounder, Jazz, Modern, Classical & Church, she can sing it all. Stella is a true professional, and will guide you through it all seamlessly. She arrived at the venue well before she needed to be, to make sure everything was set up perfectly for our big day. Stella you are Wonderful ! and for anyone looking for a Truly Great Singer who is very professional, accommodating on song choices, and very friendly. You will not pick a better Wedding Singer for your Special Day than Stella Base.
Response from Stella Bass - Singer/Pianist for Ceremony & Drinks Reception
Jim and Sorcha - I cannot thank you enough for this review - wow, my mind is blown!!! :) It was just such a fab day in the venue...and I was delighted to learn that new song for you. It's always a pleasure to come across a gem of a song that you know you'll be able to sing again. I hope married life is treating you well, take care and hopefully our paths will cross again at some point x

So many people commented on how incredible you are and a few people were saying they are going to buy your album. You have such a gorgeous voice and the piano playing was truly amazing. Walking up the aisle to All I Ask of You really was a dream come true for me. And thank you for allowing Tom to sing Ave Maria. He was raving about you too! We are delighted to have had you part of such an intimate part of our special day. Thank you so so much.

Hi Stella, just a short note following Alison & Graham's wedding to say a sincere 'thank you' to you and the guys for playing and singing at the event. Everybody commented so favourably and highly on how the music added so much to the overall proceedings, from the jazz played before and after the ceremony to the songs you played and sang during the ceremony and the music during the candle-lighting piece. We must especially mention your kindness in playing during the seemingly interminable post-wedding photos - it was deeply appreciated. We will be singing your praises for years to come and passing on the strongest of recommendations to family and friends to contact you for other events where your music is needed. We cannot thank you enough for your professionalism, care and attention to detail. We wish you continued success for many years to come and look forward to catching up again at the many events you play around the country. With warmest personal regards & deepest thanks - Alan, Sandra & family.

I just wanted to touch base with Stella and say thank you for providing us both with wonderful entertainment in church and at the reception. From start to finish Stella was extremely accommodating to us both, especially as we live in Australia, and went out of her way to learn a song which meant to much to us. We got so many compliments on Stella's incredible singing and she really added a special element to our day. The music throughout the whole day was simply amazing. We are both so grateful to her for everything. We would highly recommend Stella to any couple without hesitation and can guarantee she will bring a special touch to your ceremony and evening celebrations xx

We were fortune enough to have Stella sing at our wedding ceremony and drinks reception in August this year. As a (very) amateur singer myself, music was very important to me and I must have listened to every singer in Ireland before I heard Stella. Once I heard her I fell in love with her voice and I would have moved my date to have her as part of our day! We initially were looking for music for the Church only but having listened to Stella's jazz sets- we had to have her entertain our guests at the drinks reception too. Stella was a total professional to deal with from first point of contact. She was very flexible and learned one of my favourite songs for us. Stella's voice is the kind of voice that gives you goosebumps and one that you would never forget. I was blown away with the amount of guests that mentioned her singing, including people that would never usually notice or comment on music! I couldn't recommend her more highly.

Hi Stella, Just a quick mail before we head off to say thank you so much for your beautiful music on Saturday. It was even better than I hoped for. I'm only sorry I missed the music prior to the ceremony; my father-in-law hasn't stopped talking about it...you played all of his favourites. I'm sorry I didn't get to thank you in person for making the journey. Last summer I spent a lot of time researching the church music and loved you the minute I listened so it meant a lot that I didn't lose the booking due to change of venue. We'll have no hesitation in recommending you to family and friends. Thanks a million.

Stella was wonderful! From the very beginning - over a year prior to the wedding - Stella was very professional and timely in her emails, and always accommodating! Stella also happily learned a new song which I absolutely wanted to walk down the aisle to, and when I inquired about another song for the recessional not on her playlist, she was happy to play that one too! There was no hassle there at all! Herself and pianist Linda added so much to our (humanist) ceremony! Guests kept complimenting myself & groom on the ceremony music choice (all in Stella's repertoire) and on her beautiful voice! It was lovely to finally meet her (briefly) on the day! We truly appreciated her efforts and performance and would highly recommend booking Stella to any future bride and groom!

Hi Stella, just getting back to you to say what a wonderful performance yourself and the group gave us at our wedding party in Skerries last month. It took on a life of its own, and you gave the crowd exactly what they wanted. Not quite the mellow evening I had envisaged when we planned but exactly right for the night and the guests. You followed the crowd and it was just perfect - Our friends are still talking about it and we feel the music made the night special and quite different! Thank you so much and please let the musicians know also how happy we were with the night. See you in Cafe en Seine sometime no doubt, and a big thanks again from both of us!

Stella Bass was a joy to deal with. So professional. She responded to emails in an efficient manner and put our minds completely at ease in the lead up to our wedding. You just knew from the first communication that you were in safe hands with Stella. Together with her band she performed an incredible set at our wedding reception in the St Stephen's Green Club. They set the mood beautifully and it was just perfect. She appealed to all of the guests old and young and even indulged our mini bridesmaid in performing a speech that she had wanted to do all day. Very sweet. My parents who are in their eighties and love their old time dancing got to perform a quickstep and Stella told them they were like Fred and Ginger. It possibly made their year! We would highly recommend Stella and her band for any occasion and look forward to seeing them perform again again in the future.

Stella was outstanding, she sang in the Church for us and was able to get us an instrumental track that we liked within minutes of discussing it with her. We organised our wedding from outside Ireland and she was an absolute pleasure to deal with. So professional and very fast at getting back to me. Stella also sang at the drinks reception and we are still getting compliments on the stunning atmosphere that she created. Thank you again Stella.
Response from Stella Bass - Singer/Pianist for Ceremony & Drinks Reception
Thank you sooo much, Jennie and Ger. I'm delighted the music contributed to the day! You were a pleasure to sing for and I hope married life is treating you both really well. P.S. I now have that instrumental in my repertoire....thanks for introducing me to it!

I wasn't sure where to start when looking for a singer for our wedding ceremony so I sent a group inquiry through Weddingsonline.ie. Stella was one of the first to reply and as soon as I heard her demo I knew she would be perfect. When my now husband heard her voice he said - "If she is still available, book her right now!" So I did. I can't recommend Stella highly enough, she is so professional and has such a fabulous voice! We live in Australia so our contact was through email until we finally met on my wedding day. Stella made everything so easy and she learned one of my favourite songs for my walk up the aisle. I am not an emotional person but I welled up when I heard her sing it, it was amazing! She sang for our civil ceremony and performed her jazz set for our drinks reception. I have to say, both were absolutely perfect. All of my guests commented on amazing Stella was and everyone was so impressed. They said that the music was just at the perfect level too - not intrusive at all and it really added to ceremony and drinks reception. The jazz set was so classy and was just exactly what I was hoping for! I am only sorry that I didn't get to stay and listen for longer, but our photographer whisked us away for our photos! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Stella to anyone for their wedding or event, she is amazing and such a lovely person. Thank you so much Stella for truly adding to our special day!

Stella played a very special part in our wedding service. Her voice and the music she played, portrayed the songs we selected in the way we imagined and justified to us, our reasons for choosing them. After the service, Stella played a jazz set for the time between the service and the meal which was a great hit with our guests. In our dealings with Stella, we have found her to be very pleasant, professional and helpful and would highly recommend her.
Response from Stella Bass - Singer/Pianist for Ceremony & Drinks Reception
Ah, I really appreciate you guys taking the time to write this. It was a very special and personal service; I know how important the specific songs were to you as we were putting the programme together. As I mentioned to you guys, I'll be reciprocating with a visit to Down on 2nd October - my first visit there!

Hi Stella, just wanted to send you a long overdue note to say thank you so much to you and Yvonne for performing so beautifully at our wedding ceremony in Castleknock in October. You added so much to the ceremony and we received lovely compliments from our guests on the fantastic music and singing. Thanks also for your advice and guidance on music choices in the lead-up to the big day. You were a pleasure to deal with since the first day James and I met you in Searsons on a Sunday evening about a year ago!! I'd have no hesitation in recommending you to any future bride and groom! I'm really looking forward to receiving the wedding video soon so that we can re-live the beautiful ceremony and listen to such wonderful music again. Thanks again and best wishes.

You really blew me away - your voice is amazing and my guests have not stopped talking about you! I couldn't help but look up myself to where you were in the choir gallery as the music was just so powerful I nearly wanted everything to stop so I could enjoy and take in the music!!!

Stella sang in the church for our wedding in April and she was simply amazing!!! There was a particular song that I wanted to include and Stella learnt it in time for our ceremony without any hassle. The music was beautiful and really made the ceremony even more special for us. Several guests commented that she was the best wedding singer that they had heard. Amazing talent and such a lovey person to deal with too!!

You really did a great job for us and we are so delighted to have had you sing for us.

The Sunday Jazz Brunch is a weekly gathering at Dublin's Cafe en Seine, where Stella Bass and her quartet work through a selection of easy listening standards - precisely what you might need after a heavy Saturday night. Bass is a talented young singer, and her voice would be enough to lift the edge from the meanest hangover

Hi Stella, I wanted to say a big thank you for our ceremony & drinks reception at Killashee. After going to see you guys inCafe en Seine, I knew we were in very good hands. I was most impressed with you from the start but I have to say you really surpassed yourself and made our day all the more special. You have a beautiful voice. I can’t tell you the amount of people who were singing your praises (excuse the pun) and how much they enjoyed the music at the ceremony and the drinks reception. I wish I could have been in two places at the same time and was able to hear the jazz you guys played for the drinks reception, which went down a storm with everyone. Everyone was saying how talented the three of you are. I am delighted and relieved that I caught the last few minutes of your set at least and thanks so much for waiting for me to play "As Time Goes By". Loved it! My m!um, who was a bit upset that we were not getting married in a church, said that the ceremony was nicer than any wedding she has been to in a church and I have to say a lot of that is down to the beautiful music. I spent quite a while deciding on the music and the readings and it was great to see it all come together so well on the day. So thank you for the music! You have a great gift, I wish I could sing like you but sure I suppose at least I can say that music is one of my great loves and it's something I can appreciate and get a lot of joy from anyway! I'll look forward to seeing you in Cafe en Seine again very soon. All the best in the world to you and the guys.

Hi Stella, We just want to say a big thank you for making our wedding day so special last month. We're just back from honeymoon and couldn't wait to see our DVD, and watching back on the Church ceremony brought tears to our eyes. You sang our song choices beautifully and so many of our family and friends have complimented our "church singer" and have asked for your details. We're sorry we didn't get a chance to chat with you, the day just flew!! Wishing you all the best, and maybe we'll see you at some of our friends weddings in the near future, who knows :-)

Hi Stella, just back from the honeymoon and coming back down to earth. Can't believe it is all over! Just want to say a HUGE thank you from both of us for your amazing performance at our wedding ceremony and later back at the reception in Tulfarris House. I know I was a bundle of nerves arriving at the church but when I heard you play I felt so much more at ease. Your organ playing was fabulous especially as it was probably your first time seeing the organ (lucky you are so slender as it is a tight squeeze to say the least!) let alone playing it. I watched our wedding video last night, sat back and took it all in, your voice had the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Ave Maria and Songbird were just super, think I started welling up. We have had so many compliments about you and how beautiful you sounded during the mass, it really made it for us. I'm really sorry I did not get to thank you in person before you left but just want to say you were such a pleasure to deal with leading up to the big day and so helpful, made our lives (well mine!) so much easier. I spent a lot of time researching musicians for the wedding but I knew once I heard your voice on your website you were the one for us! We will be recommending you to all and wish you continued success in the future. Once again thank you and best wishes.
