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 Brighton mostly quote per set rather than per hour, starting from about £100 for a single instrumental set, with typical bookings around £250 and singer-guitarists bringing their own PA reaching £800+. 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 Brighton, England, United Kingdom is £250 (GBP). Above you will also find a budget price and high end price. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Tom Butterworth
"We were lucky enough to have Tom playing for our outdoor wedding ceremony and drinks reception, he created a lovely ambience, and was a pleasure to deal with throughout the bookings process. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to add an extra special touch to a special occasion."
Jonny Lewis Ents
"Jonny opened our village music festival in June and certainly got the party started! His charm and charisma come through every song.
He is a delightful performer and we will certainly book him again.
Thank you Jonny Lewis - you are a star!"
Crash
"We booked CRASH to perform at our wedding, Ash was very helpful, and the booking process was extremely simple and sensibly priced. Talented musicians playing great music made a great day even better."
The Opposition
"Mark and Phil have played twice at my garden party.
They have delighted guests of all ages. They are not only very talented musicians but are lovely people who draw the audience in. No-one wanted them to finish!
I cannot recommend them highly enough - accomplished, professional, punctual and charming!"
Chris Harper
"Chris Harper was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding day!
From the very beginning, Chris was professional, friendly, and incredibly easy to work with. He took the time to understand exactly what we wanted for each part of the day — from the ceremony to the drinks reception — and he absolutely delivered.
His voice is stunning, and his guitar playing brought such a warm, emotional atmosphere to our ceremony. Guests kept asking us “Who is your singer? He’s amazing!” — and they weren’t wrong. We even picked one of his original songs "Eyes Off You" to walk down the aisle to. It was truly perfect.
Chris’s setlist was spot on — a great mix of romantic, relaxed, and upbeat songs that suited the vibe of the day perfectly. He read the room beautifully and kept the energy flowing without ever being overbearing.
We genuinely can’t recommend Chris highly enough — he helped make our day so memorable, and we feel lucky to have had him as part of it. If you’re looking for a wedding singer who’s talented, professional, and a joy to have around, book Chris to be part of your special day!"
