Rates for opera singers in Reading range from £100 to £900+, with most bookings around £350. Distance is the biggest variable, since a singer travelling two hours for a twenty-minute ceremony prices differently from one performing ten minutes from home. Saturdays through summer and December fill first and carry the least room to negotiate. Booking inside two weeks often costs more rather than less, since the singer has to work rehearsal and travel around a diary already committed elsewhere. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

Reviews of Opera Singers available in Reading

5/5 from 306 reviews
Photo of The Italian Tenor The Italian Tenor "Yuri sang at our wedding in May and it really made the occasion incredible. He was extremely approachable and receptive to what we wanted and easily managed 5 songs of very different styles in three languages! He sang so beautifully as I walked up the aisle I started crying immediately. Our guests were wowed. We couldn’t have hoped for better. Thoroughly and happily recommended" Based in Bracknell, England (10 miles from Reading) 22nd September 2026 Ilan Adler - Wedding Photo of Denis Ferrer Denis Ferrer "I contacted Denis Ferrer, for my weeding in Hong Kong , he is French speaker and the connection and understanding of what I was feeling and needing was very fast and nice. Since the beginning at the end all wonderful and beautiful for my special day. Merci encore Denis" Based in Surbiton, England (29 miles from Reading) Pascale Dubois - Wedding / Hong Kong Photo of Gemma Ashley Gemma Ashley "The very first time we heard Gemma Ashley sing, she performed "In the Arms of an Angel" on a YouTube channel. We absolutely loved her voice and knew she would be the ideal singer for our Christmas wedding in 2022, and we were so fortunate that our wedding date suited her diary. Little did we know, then, that Gemma would - in a metaphorical sense - come to provide those very angelic, reassuring arms for us on our wedding day, as we were faced with a number of unexpected challenges (including train strikes, snow chaos, and traffic delays). It all added to the stresses of the day, particularly for the bridal party, who were not sure they would even make it to wedding in time. However, the moment we entered the Church and were met by Gemma's soaring aria as she performed her opening song to the Groom ("Nella Fantasia"), any worries and anxieties magically disappeared. Instead, a wonderful sense of calm and serenity descended - like arms of an angel - where Gemma's song, accompanied on the piano by amazing Paolo Freitas, literally transported us to a breathtakingly beautiful, almost etheral, space in time. From that point, everything fell into place, and Gemma became our guiding light and steadfast beacon for the rest of the day and evening. Not only was she our amazing soprano for our wedding ceremony, singing five songs in four different languages (Italian, Latin, Portuguese and English!), but she single-handedly provided the full musical entertainment for our wedding reception, covering everything from Depeche Mode to Abba - and even led the wedding party in a surprise Les Miserables flash mob! We are indebted to Gemma for making our wedding day the huge and unforgettable success that it was; her work ethic and professionalism is second to none, and her warmth, great sense of humour and generosity of spirit is something we will never forget. We feel we did not just hire a singer for our special day, but a true artist who engaged everyone with her presence and creative performance, and who has become a friend for life. We cannot recommend Gemma enough. She will bring joy and light and life-time memories to any special events, giving 110% until the very moment the lights go out for the night. Perhaps the greatest testament to the lasting effect that Gemma had on our wedding day was when the Priest himself leaned over and whispered to us during the ceremony: "Where did you find this singer? She is fantastic." We would only like to add that choosing this lovely young woman to sing at our wedding, and at the reception, was one of the best, if not the best, decision, that we made when arranging our wedding. Thank you so much, Gemma. We love you xxx. Anna Hammerin and David Markham" Based in St Albans, England (34 miles from Reading) Anna & David - Wedding Photo of Wedding & Events Singer Wedding & Events Singer "Lyn performed at our private event, and she completely elevated the entire evening. Her repertoire of musical theatre classics, Disney favorites, and timeless ballads was perfectly curated for the crowd, striking the exact balance between elegance and vibrant entertainment. Beyond her incredible vocal talent, Lyn was an absolute professional to work with—prompt, organized, and seamless in her setup. She captivated every guest in the room, and we cannot wait to book her again for future events."

The service was absolutely perfect in every way. We have had so many compliments about the choices of music and attention to detail and you all came together so beautifully, it was pure perfection. I hope I get to hear you all perform again and please pass on my heartfelt thank you to everyone else." Based in London, England (37 miles from Reading) 14th September 2026 Charlotte - Wedding Photo of Felix Mendel Felix Mendel "Felix serenaded our guests for our celebration afternoon tea. Everybody enjoyed the music and by the end we were all standing up and singing along. He is a classy act and a pleasure to deal with."

Frequently asked questions

Hiring opera singers typically costs between £100 and £900+, with an average of £350. Pricing depends on the singer's experience, the length and style of the performance and whether operatic arias, crossover material or a mix of both is required. Opera singers are popular for adding a dramatic, memorable element to ceremonies, corporate events and gala dinners.

Typical bookings for opera singers include wedding ceremonies, gala dinners, corporate events, private parties, charity fundraisers and formal occasions. An opera singer brings a dramatic, emotionally powerful performance that adds a sense of grandeur and occasion.

The opera singers on Gig Heaven perform classical opera arias, crossover pop-opera (such as songs by Andrea Bocelli or Il Divo), musical theatre and popular ballads arranged in an operatic style. Many singers can blend these styles throughout an event.

Most opera singers perform with a pianist, though some work with string ensembles, backing tracks or a harpist. The right accompaniment depends on the venue, budget and formality of the event. It is worth discussing options with the singer when making an enquiry.
