Live jazz groups bring a polished, adaptable sound to weddings and events near you. These professional musicians handle everything from soft background music during dinner to high-energy dance sets, adjusting their repertoire and volume to suit your venue and occasion. Most jazz acts offer flexible lineup sizes, so a trio that plays your cocktail hour can expand to a quintet or larger group for the evening.
The most popular format is a three or four-piece jazz group for wedding receptions and corporate functions, with a classic combination of piano or guitar, bass, drums and sometimes saxophone or vocals. Smaller duos work well for ceremonies and intimate settings, while larger ensembles with brass and dedicated vocalists suit bigger venues and dance-focused events. Many jazz musicians locally also offer themed sets, including 1920s Gatsby-era jazz, bossa nova, and modern pop songs rearranged in a swing style.
Jazz bands in Kingston currently range from $260 for smaller ensembles to $3,250+ for larger groups or extended performances, with an average booking cost of $950.

Jon Rebbeck
"Jon was amazing! We initially hired Jon for our welcome party and asked for “Ibiza, easy-going vibes.” He completely delivered, creating the perfect atmosphere and getting everyone into the mood.
But Jon really became the MVP of our wedding weekend when our band had to cancel on the morning of our wedding due to nearby wildfire evacuations. Our planner called Jon, and he immediately agreed to step in that same evening.
He played alongside our DJ, seamlessly creating an incredible atmosphere and getting the dance floor started within minutes. Despite having never met our DJ and having very little time to prepare, he was completely professional and delivered a fantastic performance.
Jon truly saved the day and gave us the live music we had dreamed of for our wedding. We’ll always be grateful for him stepping in at such short notice. We couldn’t recommend Jon highly enough!"
Martin Bevacua - Violinist
"★★★★★
We were so happy to have Martin play at our wedding! From the very beginning, he was professional, friendly, and very easy to communicate with.
His violin playing during the ceremony was absolutely beautiful and made the moment even more emotional and special. During the cocktail reception, he created the perfect atmosphere with a great mix of music that our guests really enjoyed.
Martin is not only a fantastic musician, but also very professional and kind. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for beautiful live music for their wedding. Thank you, Martin, for being part of such an important day for us!"
Soupir
"We couldn’t have asked for better musicians for our wedding! From the very beginning, communication was easy, friendly, and flexible. As we don’t speak French, it was especially important to us that communication could also be handled in English, and everything went smoothly throughout the planning process.
The performance itself was absolutely wonderful. They are both incredibly talented musicians, and the singer has a truly beautiful voice. The pianist was also excellent, and together they created a fantastic atmosphere for our special day.
They listened carefully to our wishes and took all of our requests into consideration, which made the experience feel very personal and special. We received so many compliments from our guests about the music!
We highly recommend them to anyone looking for talented, professional, and easy-to-work-with musicians for their wedding. Thank you for making our day even more memorable!"
