Nyna Dubois

You may see Nyna Dubois's wedding total quoted elsewhere as 300-plus, spread across Europe. Her own site tells a more specific story, and the more specific version is the better one for judging her track record. The homepage does carry a bigger figure, "über 350 gebuchte Auftritte europaweit," over 350 booked appearances Europe-wide, but read the sentence around it and that number covers her whole practice: weddings, corporate events, funeral music and DJ sets combined. It is not a wedding count. The number that actually answers "how many weddings" sits on her dedicated wedding page, and it appears there 3 separate times in 3 different spots: "über 100 Hochzeitsauftritte schweizweit," over 100 wedding performances nationwide. A wedding count over 100, all inside Switzerland, is a solid, specific record for a solo singer. 300-plus spread across a continent is not a number she publishes anywhere, and treating her career total as a wedding count overstates the wedding side of her work by a factor of 3 while moving it out of the country she actually plays in.

What she is, once that is settled, is a solo vocalist with an unusual pair of credentials behind the marketing copy. She holds a Master of Arts in Music from the Bern University of the Arts (HKB), which her wedding page repeats as a plain line item alongside the more familiar "award-winning singer" claims: a Swiss Voice Tour win and a Swiss Music Award. Her own about page adds 2 details a marketing bio usually leaves out. She teaches singing at the Bern Conservatory ("Konsi Bern") alongside performing, so the person singing at a ceremony also trains other singers during the week. And she names a specific recording credit, sessions at Abbey Road Studios in London, the kind of detail that would be easy to invent and here is not oversold either: it sits in one clause of her own biography rather than a headline claim. She grew up in Chur and lives in Bern now, which her about page states directly in the first person, "heute in Bern zu Hause."

Solo, duo or DJ, and a price attached to each

A wedding booking with her is built around the ceremony itself, not a full-day package by default. Her wedding page prices that core service plainly: solo ceremony singing starts at CHF 1,200, and a duo, with a pianist or a guitarist alongside her, starts at CHF 2,200. She most often accompanies herself on piano for the solo format. Anything beyond the ceremony, an apéro set, dinner music, the first dance or a DJ set for the evening, gets folded into a custom quote shaped by scope, distance and how much extra work is involved; none of those add-ons carry a published number of their own, which is the one real gap in an otherwise unusually transparent pricing page for this category. The DJ option is a real, separately priced product rather than a vague upsell: her "DJane" page lists 3 fixed packages, a lounge set for the apéro or dinner from CHF 1,400, a set that includes one live-sung highlight song, a first dance, for instance, from CHF 1,500, and a full party set from CHF 1,600, with sound and lighting technology available as an add-on for events up to 100 guests. Her site also lists a separate duo act called Nyna & Jones, with Jones on guitar and a self-built drum-and-guitar rig, based in Bern and playing regularly around Bern, Zürich, Lucerne and Basel. Weddings are named among the occasions that duo plays, but the wedding page itself never points a couple toward it by name, so it reads as a distinct booking rather than the "im Duo" line item priced at CHF 2,200 above.

4 playlists, sorted by where you are in the day

Her repertoire page does something most suppliers in this category skip: it sorts the 400-plus songs she claims into 4 groups by the part of the day they suit, rather than dumping one long list. Ceremony picks lean toward English-language ballads, "A Thousand Years" (Christina Perri), "All of Me" (John Legend), "Perfect" (Ed Sheeran), "Hallelujah" (Leonard Cohen), with one German-language exception, "Ja" by Silbermond. A separate list covers apéro and dinner (Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely," Sting's "Fields of Gold"), another covers the party set once the dancing starts (Bruno Mars's "Uptown Funk," Earth, Wind and Fire's "September"), and a last one is reserved for heavier emotional moments, Adele, Lady Gaga and Alicia Keys among them. For the walk back down the aisle specifically, she recommends something with more energy than the ceremony's ballads, and says that kind of song works well over an instrumental backing track rather than live piano alone. A requested song outside any of those lists gets learned and rehearsed for the couple at no extra charge, provided there is time before the wedding.

On equipment, her own language is consistent across the pages that mention it: "own quality technology," specified elsewhere on the site as a proper sound system and stage piano suited to outdoor ceremonies as well as indoor ones. Nothing on the site states a guest-count ceiling for the ceremony rig itself; the 100-guest figure attached to sound and lighting only shows up on the separate DJ product page, describing DJ equipment rather than the ceremony setup.

For a couple planning from outside Switzerland, the practical detail worth knowing is that the entire site exists in a full English version, not a machine-translated afterthought: an English homepage, English service names, and an English contact form carrying the same fields as the German one. Booking itself runs through a contact form, WhatsApp or a phone call, followed by what the site calls a personal conversation, either a video call or, for anyone actually in the area, coffee in Bern, to talk through song choices and how the day should run. She states a reply window of 24 hours and warns that popular dates get booked out months ahead, so reaching out early matters more than a long back-and-forth once you have found her.
