Solo guitar works at almost every point of an event, from ceremony music and drinks receptions through to relaxed evening sets. Before requesting quotes, it helps to decide where live music sits in your day: quiet background playing during food, a featured moment such as a first dance, or both. That decision shapes the set list, the equipment a performer brings and the price you are quoted.
A typical booking covers two 45-minute sets or three 40-minute sets with breaks in between, though most performers will adjust timings to fit around speeches, courses and other entertainment. For drinks receptions, many guitarists play longer, lighter sets at background volume; for evening slots, expect shorter and more energetic performances. Agree the running order in advance and decide who will cue the performer on the day, so timing changes reach them quickly.
Indoor setups are simple: a chair, a small clear area and a nearby socket cover most performances. Outdoor ceremonies and garden parties need more thought. Ask whether the performer can bring a battery amplifier or play fully acoustic where there is no power, check noise policies and finish times with your venue before booking an amplified evening set, and make sure there is somewhere dry and shaded for both the performer and the instrument.
Guitar players in Windsor mostly quote per set rather than per hour, starting from about $170 for a single instrumental set, with typical bookings around $500 and singer-guitarists bringing their own PA reaching $1,600+. Longer performances, weekend and peak-season dates, and sets that include vocals all push quotes up. When comparing quotes, check what each includes: amplification, travel and time to learn requested songs are sometimes itemised separately. Booking ceremony and reception music with the same performer often costs less than hiring two separate acts.
The average price for Guitarists available in Windsor, Ontario, Canada is $500 (CAD). Above you will also find a budget price and high end price. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Mark Broadwell -Vocalist
"Mark's warm vocals and acoustic guitar have earned the praise of
many an audience and has led to a devoted following"
Ahsaas Chaudhary Live
"Ahsaas was absolutely fantastic! We hired him to perform for my father-in-law’s 80th birthday, and he sang beautifully for a little over two hours.
I had asked him to create a mix of older classic songs along with newer, well-known favorites that the senior generation would enjoy, and he completely understood the assignment. His song selection was perfect, his voice was beautiful, and he created such a warm, joyful, and nostalgic atmosphere for the celebration.
Our family and guests thoroughly enjoyed his performance, and he made an already special milestone birthday even more memorable. I would highly recommend Ahsaas for anyone looking for a talented singer for a family celebration or special event!"
Victor Samalot / Guitar Instrumentalist
"“A fantastic event at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this week was made even better by the fabulous guitar playing of Victor Samalot. This was was a networking event for our firm. Victor fit in perfectly and enhanced the ambiance. Thank you Victor!”"
Adam Jacobs
"I had an awesome annual 4th of July party on the lake with a big group of my friends! We knew we needed some live music for the event and Adam was the perfect person to do it. He knows how to play to the audience. He plays music that most people know, but it's not too main stream. He also plays his own originals which are very well done. He brings all his own equipment and is very professional and courteous. He asks if there's any requests for songs and tries to accommodate. He keeps the crowd engaged but doesn't take over the event that is your own. I had people walking past trying to come in like it was a public event. I definitely recommend him!"
Island Troy Singing/Guitarist
"We had our annual event on the beach and Troy was the hit of the party. All the right musical vibes for our beach theme. Troy had many options for us."
Chris Eh Young
"We love having Chris out to Bad Apple. He is a great guy to work with and a great musician! He is good at reading the crowd and taking requests from a variety of genres (even Britney on occasion ?)!"
