Wedding Ceremony Musicians in Riverside
Woodwind Musicians in RiversideGuitar players mostly quote per set rather than per hour, with rates in Riverside starting from about $120 for a single instrumental set, typical bookings around $380 and singer-guitarists bringing their own PA reaching $1,150+. 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.

"Bill created a positive Hawaiian vibe with his singing and guitar, harmonica, and ukulele."
21st Century Latin Guitar
"Guillermo is a total pro!
Guillermo provided an A+ entertainment experience for our party! He arrived early, well prepared, and brought the perfect vibe - an absolute pro! Coming from a musician myself, I was particularly impressed by his musicality, he is not faking it and that natural Latin flare really comes across in his performance. By the end of the night, everyone was up and dancing to his music! We got many compliments and will be hiring him again."
los angeles acoustic Guitarist
"Ian Kauffman was an absolute pleasure to work with. For couples looking for live music for their ceremony or the reception, Ian is the pro. His glowing reviews are a direct reflection of his work. With little direction, Ian is able to provide clients with an eclectic list of music that brings all age groups onto the dance floor – a serious accomplishment. Not to mention, as a planner, releasing tables to a buffet line can be a stressful task, as you do not want guests waiting in an endless line. This not only demonstrates his flexibility in his services, but also his understanding for tasteful execution. The wedding I coordinated occurred on New Years Eve, so Ian was expected to provide 10+ hours of engaging music – a task he accomplished flawlessly. My bride was extremely satisfied with the outcome as well. I look forward to recommending Ian to my future clients and working with him again."
