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 mostly quote per set rather than per hour, with rates in Singapore starting from about $170 for a single instrumental set, typical bookings around $500 and singer-guitarists bringing their own PA reaching $1,450+. 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 is $500 (SGD), with most priced from $170 to $1,450+. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Paul Hutton - Musician
"We hired Paul and his band, Pan Island Jam to play at our wedding last year. They have an extensive library of songs and even learnt a couple of kiwi classics for us which brought the house down and got everyone up on their feet! Great energy and if we need a band again in Singapore, we know exactly where to look. Thanks guys"

Matt Baxter
"we booked Matt after seeing him sing one afternoon at a local venue , instantly we loved his voice and songs, we had a chat and booked him for our evening wedding celebration. Matt chatted to us before the day and was so attentive with what we wanted. On the evening all our guests loved him and we knew we had made the right choice. We couldn’t believe the value for money for a live singer it really was perfect for us .
Anyone looking for a singer this guy is really good, I hope we see him again singing one day
Thank you for helping make our day so special Matt

"Thank you Elise for your performance and your sublime voice, you have delighted both adults and children with your varied repertoire and songs that are beautifully and subtly appropriated. Special mention also for the two songs I asked you for, which were perfectly interpreted."
TheItalianDuo
"Niccolò and Antonio were absolutely fantastic! They performed during our meal and evening celebrations. The music selection was exactly as we requested and performed to a high standard! Their choice of music was very appropriate for the various moments from slow to upbeat and from instrumental to lyrical accompaniement. Everyone loved the performance! They had every guest engaged with their music! I would have no hesitation in reccommending them for any occasion as they were so professional. Thank you Niccolò and Antonio for enhancing our beautiful day!!"
