How much does it cost to hire Guitarists in Vail?

$Low price
from$140USD
$$Average price
from$390USD
$$$High price
from$1,150USD

Guitar players mostly quote per set rather than per hour, with rates in Vail starting from about $140 for a single instrumental set, typical bookings around $390 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.

Reviews of Guitarists available in Vail

5/5 from 1,210 reviews
Photo of Michael Lancaster Michael Lancaster "Michael was the best decision we could have made for the wedding! His communication was incredible. He helped us think through things that we hadn't even considered and really made the schedule as smooth as could be. He was able to accommodate for our ceremony that did not have a power source. We even had our generator go out during the reception and he didn't hesitate to keep the vibe going. He started up his battery powered speakers and many guests didn't even realize the power was out. Michael was on board with our creative song choices and made them crowd pleasers. Majority of our guests complimented the DJ choice because we had the best dance floor ever. Thank you Michael for everything!!!!!" Based in Denver, Colorado (74 miles from Vail) Katie O. - Private Wedding Photo of Shelton Rohling Shelton Rohling "Amazing guitar player killer Setlist. Wasn’t too overbearing" Based in Slaton, Texas (502 miles from Vail) Bobby M Photo of Andrew Marc Pelham Andrew Marc Pelham "Andrew was absolutely awesome! He was perfect for our event and is a great musician. Throughout the night, guests kept commenting on how great the music was. He was also very easy to communicate with, was early to set up, and very friendly. We will definitely try to get him again when we have another event."

Right up there with performances we saw in Spain." Based in Scottsdale, Arizona (523 miles from Vail) 4th October 2026 Claudia D - Sun City Anthem at Merrill Ranch Photo of Paul Wells Band Paul Wells Band "Highly professional singer/guitarist; fun & entertaining. Paul Wells provided excellent entertainment at multiple events for my healthcare organization from 2010 through 2020. Always on time, very organized, & willing to "go with the flow" when our systems may not have been so accommodating. Example: for one outdoor event, we had difficulty running a cable for his equipment in the location we had placed him. Paul went out of his way to help get everything set up & started his performance on time. Wonderful voice, excellent guitar skills, & a great sense of humor when interacting with his audience. An extensive song list ensures something for everyone. People love him! Although I am now retired, I continue to seek Paul out when looking for outstanding entertainment." Based in Tempe, Arizona (528 miles from Vail) Suzanne Treece - Healthcare Organization Photo of Classic Country & Oldies Rock One Man Band Classic Country & Oldies Rock One Man Band "Fantastic entertainment! Dave was a lot of fun, a great singer and sounded like a whole band was behind him! Amazing what he can do with his keyboard not to mention his guitar! I would highly recommend him for any event you might have" Based in Peoria, Arizona (530 miles from Vail) Roberta M. - Retirement Party

Frequently asked questions

The average price for guitarists on Gig Heaven is $390, with rates ranging from $140 to $1,150+. Cost depends on performance duration, the guitarist's experience and whether the booking is for background music or a full live set. Guitarists on the platform cover a wide range of styles including classical, jazz, blues, rock, flamenco and pop.

The guitarists for hire cover a huge range of styles including classical, jazz, blues, flamenco, rock, pop, folk, fingerstyle and acoustic covers. Many guitarists are versatile performers who can switch between styles during an event to suit different moments.

Popular occasions for hiring guitarists include wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate dinners, private parties, restaurant entertainment and ambient background music. A solo guitarist provides versatile, elegant live music that suits both intimate and larger settings.

Most guitarists are happy to learn specific songs for key moments such as a ceremony entrance or first dance. Many have extensive repertoires covering popular songs, classical pieces and jazz standards. It is advisable to discuss song requests with the guitarist well in advance.

Many guitarists on Gig Heaven play both electric and acoustic guitar and can choose the instrument that best suits the event. Acoustic guitar provides a warm, intimate sound for ceremonies and dining, while electric guitar is better for rock, blues and higher-energy performances.

For small, quiet settings, many guitarists can perform acoustically. For larger venues, outdoor events or noisier environments, a small amplifier or PA system is usually needed. Most guitarists bring their own amplification. For the best experience, discuss the venue size with the performer.

One player can usually cover the whole day, moving from processional and signing music during the ceremony to background playing over drinks and dinner. Timings are agreed in advance, since the ceremony music has fixed cues while the reception is more flexible. Where the ceremony and the reception are in different spaces, allow time to move and set up between them.

Most bookings run to two or three hours of playing time, split into sets with breaks, though the total time on site is longer once setup and soundcheck are added. Shorter ceremony-only bookings of around 40 minutes are common and are priced differently. Ask for playing time rather than hours on site, as the two are not the same.

Outdoor playing is common for ceremonies and garden receptions, and most players are happy to do it given shade and a level surface. Direct sun and damp both affect a wooden instrument, so a covered area is worth arranging even in settled weather. Wind carries sound away quickly, so amplification is usually needed outdoors even for a small number of guests.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
