I don’t even know where to start, our cocktail hour was brought to life when Miguel started playing. It was absolutely perfect and we haven’t stopped talking about it since! If you’re considering a saxophonist for your wedding or any event then Miguel needs to be your guy. He played all the best songs & paired with our DJ perfectly. 10 out of 10!!!" 7th July 2026 Jess Hartley - Wedding - Cocktail Hour Photo of Skapa Skapa "SKAPA played at our wedding and did an incredible job. From our first interaction, they were warm, professional, and genuinely wonderful to work with. They played all of the music we requested, including several custom songs, and everything felt thoughtful and personal. They helped make our wedding day feel special and unforgettable. We are so grateful and would recommend SKAPA without hesitation." 15th July 2026 Jared and Sumedha - Wedding Photo of Harvis music Harvis music "alto y soprano sax flute Smooth jazz lounge vibes latin jazz internacional music Incluido audio" 20th August 2026 FOUNTAINS COUTRI CLUB - Eventos de cualquier tipo Photo of Anastasia Violin performer Anastasia Violin performer "Anastasia on the violin, Valeria on the saxophone, and Andrea with her incredible voice – three exceptionally talented women, each of them highly professional and completely devoted to their music. They don’t simply perform – they bring their passion to life. You can see it, hear it and, most importantly, feel it. ❤️ Beyond their extraordinary musical talent, they are three incredibly warm, loving and attentive women with truly beautiful souls. Professional in every possible way, always thinking ahead, flexible, spontaneous and able to react perfectly to every little moment. All three accompanied our wedding on September 12th, 2026, and helped turn it into a true celebration of life, love and lightness. Their music created an atmosphere that is almost impossible to put into words and gave us moments we will remember for the rest of our lives. Our communication was mainly with Anastasia, and from the very beginning, she immediately understood our vision and, even more importantly, the feeling we wanted to create on that day. With her many years of experience, she contributed her own ideas and thoughtful suggestions, refined our plans and helped make everything feel absolutely perfect. A special thank you also goes to Matteo, who was responsible for the technical side and the sound. He was just as professional, attentive and talented – he worked his magic behind the scenes and made sure everything sounded flawless. What makes this team so special is the way they work together. It feels completely natural and effortless – almost symbiotic. Every single person brings their own talent, personality and passion, and together they create something truly magical. From the bottom of our hearts: thank you, Anastasia, Valeria, Andrea and Matteo. Thank you for your music, your passion, your warmth, your professionalism and your beautiful energy. You didn’t just accompany our wedding – you became part of it and helped make it one of the most beautiful days of our lives. An incredible, harmonious team full of talent and heart. We could not recommend you more highly. ❤️ With all our love and gratitude, Anja & Giuseppe" 28th September 2026 Anja & Giuseppe - Wedding 12/9/26 Grottammare Photo of Elegant Classics Duo Elegant Classics Duo "Mary Jane and Maria were absolutely amazing! We had them play acoustic for our ceremony and on tracks for the cocktail hour. They were able to take all our requests for the ceremony and it was so special for us to have specific music. We received countless compliments from the guests as well. Thank you for helping to make our day perfect!" 30th September 2026 Becky Martin - Wedding Ceremony & Cocktail Hour

Frequently asked questions

Hiring wedding ceremony musicians typically costs between $200 and $1,900+, with an average of $600. The price depends on the type of musician, performance duration and whether the booking covers the ceremony alone or includes the drinks reception. Popular options include string quartets, harpists, solo vocalists, pianists and acoustic duos, and ensemble acts cost more than solo performers.

Most wedding ceremony musicians perform for 30 minutes to one hour, covering the key moments such as the guest arrival, the processional, any signing of the register or documents, and the recessional. Some musicians also offer extended packages that include pre-ceremony background music or music during a drinks reception afterwards.

Some wedding ceremony musicians offer packages covering both the ceremony and the drinks reception or the wedding meal. Others specialise in ceremony music only. It is a good idea to check each musician's profile for their available packages, or contact them to discuss a tailored arrangement.

Most wedding ceremony musicians are happy to learn or arrange specific songs for key moments such as walking down the aisle. Gig Heaven recommends contacting musicians well in advance with any special requests, as some songs may need time to arrange for a particular instrument or ensemble.

The most popular choices for wedding ceremonies include string quartets, harpists, pianists, classical guitarists, flute players and vocalists. The right choice depends on the venue and the atmosphere the couple wants to create. The wedding ceremony musicians in Canada include a wide range of instrumentalists and ensembles to suit different ceremony styles.

Many wedding ceremony musicians are happy to perform outdoors, though this should be confirmed with the musician in advance. Outdoor performances may be affected by wind, rain or temperature, which can impact acoustic instruments. Providing a covered or sheltered area for the musicians and their equipment is strongly recommended.
