Photo of Bohdana HORECKA Bohdana HORECKA "Bohdana is absolutely wonderful to work with! She is highly professional, communicates clearly and promptly, and is always proactive in sharing ideas and suggestions. We had a very unconventional marketing campaign, and she was open to the concept from the very beginning, embracing it with enthusiasm and creativity. She was incredibly supportive throughout the entire process, flexible, and always willing to explore new ideas. I have nothing but praise for her professionalism, creativity, and positive attitude. A huge thank you, Bohdana, for being part of our event and helping us bring this unusual idea to life." Based in Nogent-sur-Marne, Île-de-France Region 23rd October 2026 FLIP AI - Flip AI Photo of Martin Bevacua - Violinist Martin Bevacua - Violinist "We are so happy that we chose Martin to be our musician for our wedding day. From the very beginning, he was communicative, flexible, and so easy to work with. He took the time to learn the songs that my fiancé and I had chosen, and he was also incredibly accommodating in agreeing to play along with a recording of my dad playing the piano for my walk down the aisle. It made that moment incredibly special and personal to us. On the wedding day, all of our guests were raving about how amazing Martin was, both playing the violin and singing. He is incredibly talented and brought such a beautiful energy to our ceremony and celebration. We truly couldn't have asked for a better musician to be part of our wedding day." Based in Bordeaux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine 7th October 2026 Julia Photo of Jon Rebbeck Jon Rebbeck "Really great having Jon perform for our wedding. He was very professional and booking and communications were straightforward and timely, making it really easy to book and not have any worries despite being in the UK! Jon played for our cocktail hour and was absolutely incredible, so good in fact that it took a few of our guests a minute to notice it was a live performance and not a track! It really added to the relaxed atmosphere we were going for during our cocktails, and everyone loved it! Later in the evening we had our DJ playing with Jon playing some more tunes that just kept everyone dancing, we even had a conga-style line with Jon at the helm at one point. Really really fun experience and loved having Jon performing for us, highly recommended! Thank you Jon!!" Based in Angoulême, Nouvelle-Aquitaine 5th October 2026 Reece Collins-Powell - Wedding Photo of Dmytro Miroshkin Dmytro Miroshkin "Dmytro was so professional. We worked together to had the best piano recital on my Wedding day. he is outstanding, he plays really beautiful and with a really good technique!" Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region 30th September 2026 Alvaro Martin - Wedding Photo of Lumen - flute & harp Lumen - flute & harp "Such a subtle touch ! This was an amazing moment with the flute leading or responding to the harp. Looking forward to the next concert ! Quel toucher subtile ! On a vécu un moment émouvant, avec la flute en leader ou répondant à la harpe. Hâte d’assister au prochain concert !" Based in Lyon, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes 29th September 2026 Cyril B. - Private concert Photo of Lou Sax Lou Sax "Working with Lou was fantastic! This lady can play SAX!! From our first chat through to the actual event Lou was easy to deal with, flexible and professional. We collaborated on a playlist and on the day of the event Lou knocked it out the park. The clients loved her!! From the very first note she was en point and sounded fabulous. Her natural charisma and personality showed as she mingled with the guests and entertained them for 2 hours solid. If you are looking for a Sax player for Cocktails and /or Evening party with a DJ I can not recommend her highly enough and I look forward to our other gigs this year and beyond."

Frequently asked questions

Hiring wedding ceremony musicians typically costs between €150 and €1,200+, with an average of €400. 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.

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 for hire in France include a wide range of instrumentalists and ensembles to suit different ceremony styles.

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.

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.

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.

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.
