Wedding Ceremony Musicians in Chelmsford
Woodwind Musicians in ChelmsfordGuitar players mostly quote per set rather than per hour, with rates in Chelmsford starting from about £100 for a single instrumental set, 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. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Guy Watson
"I can’t say enough words to express my gratitude to you Guy. You were amazing , on time, entertaining and definitely an amazing musician. You covered all my song requests that were my dad’s favourite, and even my personal Papa don’t preach which bought happy tears to my eyes. Thank you for making my Dad’s wake a memorable day that will be remembered for years to come."
Social Season
"Our event wouldn't have been the same without Social Satellite, they brought such a great vibe and sounded amazing. They were such a delight to work with, I couldn't recommend them enough!"
Luminous Duo
"We booked the Duo for our wedding in Barcelona. Before the ceremony the Duo were incredibly helpful and flexible in helping finalise the set list for our welcome drinks and cocktail hour and the equipment they would require. We were also fortunate that the Duo learnt our first dance song, sending over a demo well before the ceremony so that we could check that we were comfortable dancing to it.
On the day, both Nadine and Lumai were brilliant. They were exactly the style of performer we were looking for, with their bossa-nova sound setting the perfect atmosphere for our guests on their arrival and during our cocktail hour. We’ll always remember that we were fortunate enough to have a live band perform our first dance - thank you so much for making this happen!"
