Reviews of Wedding Ceremony Musicians based near Gloucester

5/5 from 210 reviews
Photo of Adam Okin Adam Okin "Adam was carefully chosen to perform at our Christmas charity event aboard HMS Belfast and it proved to be an evening to remember. From the moment Adam took the stage, his commanding voice filled the room and captured the attention of everyone in the room. His magnetic stage presence drew people in and created an atmosphere of excitement and fun. Throughout the event, Adam demonstrated his impressive versatility as a singer, moving effortlessly between soulful renditions of festive classics and energetic performances of swing and jazz. His voice resonated with emotion and power, leaving a lasting impression on our guests. But it wasn't just Adam's vocal abilities that set him apart. He had a unique ability to connect with the audience, making each person feel like an important part of the experience. Adam's exceptional talent took our Christmas event to new heights and ensured that it will be remembered for years to come. Lee - Argosy Lodge Events Lead" Based in Cirencester, England (15 miles from Gloucester) Lee Cannonn - Christmas Event on HMS Belfast Photo of Steven Reid Williams Steven Reid Williams "I was a guest at my brother's wedding in Chatsworth this weekend and Steven was superb! He read his audience so well, and engaged with everyone so well. He was so much fun. I was so impressed. Highly recommend him. He was perfect" Based in Cotswolds, England (18 miles from Gloucester) 12th July 2026 Hannah Rooke - Wedding Photo of Rory Rory "We booked Rory for our daughter's 21st where he played the piano for a relaxed drinks reception in the house, followed by sax working with the DJ in a much more lively party setting afterwards over at our annexe. Rory blended in perfectly in both settings, with relaxed sets being played on the piano followed by very engaged, immersive sets with the sax on the dance floor with our guests. He really just gets on with his thing and really made the event that extra special and received a ton of compliments from some very happy guests. We would whole heartedly recommend." Based in Cotswolds, England (18 miles from Gloucester) Damon Carter - Private House, Little Waltham, Chelmsford, Essex, November, 2023 Photo of JAM Duo JAM Duo "Thank you so much for performing at our wedding. Everyone thought you sounded amazing. Thanks again, you were brilliant." Based in Cotswolds, England (18 miles from Gloucester) Emma Harmer - Wedding Photo of Knight & Hodgetts Knight & Hodgetts "Jamie, huge thanks for doing an absolutely amazing job at our wedding. You are a very talented man and should be proud of what you do. Family and friends have all said it was the best music they’ve heard at a wedding. Despite the mixed age group, everyone young and old was up on that dance floor. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts." Based in Worcester, England (22 miles from Gloucester) Teasdale - Wedding Photo of Simon Addison Highland Piper Simon Addison Highland Piper "Hands-down, Simon is possibly the finest piper I have ever booked for a funeral service. Not only is he an excellent piper, he is also reliable, immaculately turned out and a pleasure to deal with and he is our first choice for a funeral piper in Herefordshire." Based in Hereford, England (24 miles from Gloucester) Mark - Funeral

Frequently asked questions

Hiring wedding ceremony musicians typically costs between £120 and £950+, with an average of £330. 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.
