5/5 from 47 reviews
Photo of The Tiny Musician The Tiny Musician "What an amazing talent Joana has. We booked her to play as our guests arrived before the wedding ceremony and then as I walked down the aisle, and she did such a beautiful job. Her talent is unbelievable and the music was absolutely perfect for the ceremony. She was also probably the easiest supplier from our entire wedding to deal with! She is the loveliest person, so friendly and made everything incredibly easy from start to finish. Joana played such an important part in one of the biggest moments of our day and we couldn’t have chosen anyone better. Thank you so much, Joana, for being such a special part of our wedding. I couldn’t recommend The Tiny Musician enough!" Based in Porto 15th September 2026 Sophia James - Wedding Photo of Violinist and Violist AJ Vaughan Violinist and Violist AJ Vaughan "Our wedding ceremony would not have been the same without your incredible talent. From the moment you began playing, you created the most beautiful, emotional atmosphere that perfectly captured the feeling of our day. So many of our guests commented on how moving and elegant the music was, and it made our ceremony feel truly unforgettable. Planning a destination wedding comes with so many moving pieces, and you were professional, communicative, and an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the process. Your performance exceeded every expectation, and we are so grateful you were a part of such a special moment in our lives. If you're looking for a talented violinist who will elevate your wedding and leave a lasting impression on you and your guests, we cannot recommend you highly enough. Thank you for helping make our day so magical—we will cherish those memories forever." Based in Porto 31st July 2026 Larissa - Wedding Photo of Miguel Sarduy sax Miguel Sarduy sax "Wow! 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!!!" Based in Porto 7th July 2026 Jess Hartley - Wedding - Cocktail Hour Photo of EDU Violin EDU Violin "Edu is incredibly talented and such a kind, wonderful person! He did an amazing job at our wedding and his playing was absolutely beautiful and added such an elegant touch to the day. He also did a great job engaging with our guests and brought such a warm, personable energy to the celebration. You can truly feel his passion through his music. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a violinist for their event!" Based in Porto 22nd April 2026 Nia Reddix - Wedding Photo of Vitor Mayer Vitor Mayer "We have a old classics concert, modern pop songs, a Beatles tribute and a Paul McCartney tribute. We can play acoustic, just guitar and voices or with the full band." Based in Porto 20th March 2026 Vitor Mayer - Pop rock, old classics, The Beatles tribute and Paul McCartney tribute Photo of Black Tie Optional Band Black Tie Optional Band "I'm so glad I found Black Tie Optional Band in Portugal! We are big country music fans and had our wedding in Braga this past fall. Black Tie Optional Band rocked the house! Our guests were absolutely thrilled to have pop/country music to dance to. Nicole is so easy to work with and worked with us over several months to make sure our song list was perfect. If you're looking for a band to keep your friends on the dance floor, don't hesitate to book these guys!" Based in Porto 13th March 2026 Olivia M. - Private Wedding, Braga, Portugal

Frequently asked questions

Hiring wedding ceremony musicians typically costs between €140 and €1,250+, 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 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.
