A jazz singer brings atmosphere and a sense of occasion to weddings, cocktail receptions, corporate dinners and milestone parties. The genre's range is what makes it work across an entire event: smooth ballads behind dinner conversation, upbeat swing for an after-dinner dance set, and loose, improvised arrangements during the drinks reception. Most professional jazz vocalists shape their setlist around how each part of the day needs to feel.
Jazz vocalists typically perform in one of three formats: solo with backing tracks, as a duo with a jazz pianist or guitarist, or fronting a jazz band of three to five musicians. Vocalists in other genres who work the same way are grouped under singers with backing tracks. As a rough guide, a duo or trio suits venues holding up to around 80 guests where dinner conversation matters, while a quartet or quintet is better for larger receptions and dance floors. Many singers also cross into swing and Motown territory, making them flexible enough to cover an entire evening, often paired with a wedding DJ for the late-night slot.
Standard repertoires draw heavily on the Great American Songbook (Cole Porter, Gershwin, Rodgers and Hart) alongside vocalists like Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Nina Simone, Michael Buble and Norah Jones. Many performers also include jazz-styled arrangements of modern pop, which works well for couples who want a familiar song reworked for a first dance. Most singers are happy to learn one or two specific requests with around six to eight weeks' notice. Confirm song lists, key changes and any do-not-play tracks well before the event.
Ask each singer about their PA setup, particularly for outdoor weddings where wind and open space affect sound. Most professional vocalists carry equipment suitable for venues up to around 150 guests; larger rooms may need additional reinforcement, which the singer can usually arrange. Set lengths typically run as two 45-minute sets or three 30-minute sets, with breaks where recorded music or a DJ takes over. For destination weddings or events outside the singer's usual area, factor in travel and accommodation when comparing quotes.
Rates for jazz vocalists range from $110 for a solo performer with backing tracks up to $1,300+ for an experienced singer fronting a live trio or quartet, with the average booking sitting around $420. The main factors are performance length, the number of accompanying musicians, travel distance, and whether the singer supplies sound equipment. Midweek dates and off-peak months often come in at the lower end of the range.
The average price for Jazz Singers is $420 (USD). Above you will also find a budget price and high end price. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

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!"
