Wedding Ceremony Musicians in KilkennyGuitar players mostly quote per set rather than per hour, with rates in Kilkenny starting from about €120 for a single instrumental set, typical bookings around €330 and singer-guitarists bringing their own PA reaching €1,050+. 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. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

PennySweet
"Christine sang a requested song for my wedding ceremony . I had asked her after seeing her contribute samples on social media.
It was heartfelt and added personal touches that reflected our story.
At short notice she also contributed to our day 2 event in a local oub and added great value to our special occassion.
We wanted something to add a variety to a strong trad flavour we had from a strong musical family.
Highly recommend Christine for an easy going , personap touch especially if your someone that likes to request sprcific song choices in a acoustic style with female vocals.
