Reviews of Wedding Ceremony Musicians available in Wales

5/5 from 6,373 reviews
Photo of CAVE - Special Events Violinist CAVE - Special Events Violinist "Jo played for us during the whole evening from our pre-dinner drinks reception, during our meal and afterwards. Her set was all carefully crafted together as a musical journey and given much thought. She has a great repertoire from classical right through to hit songs of modern artists. A journey in time and for us it brought back memories from our young and undergrad days. 'A Whiter Shade of Pale' got a huge round of applause. I really enjoyed the two ELO numbers she specially arranged for me, 'Sweet Talkin Woman' and 'Mr Blue Sky'. What a fantastic evening!" Based in Welshpool, Wales Cathy Wickenden - RVC77 Reunion Dinner Sept 18th Photo of Caroline Joy Caroline Joy "Caroline is an incredible opera singer, and an absolute pleasure to work with! She went above and beyond!" Based in Ludlow, England Greg A Photo of Sounds Interesting String Quartet Sounds Interesting String Quartet "Dear Anne, Thank you, once again, for organising a lovely group of players for me. Everyone was so nice to work with. Considering the amount of notes that we had to play last night - it was a fantastic job. The audience had a really good evening and there were many excellent comments. Thank you, for leading in your usual friendly and professional way. It's always a privilege to work with you. Please pass on my thanks to the players - I am looking forward to the B minor Mass after Christmas! All the best. Peter" Based in Shrewsbury, England Music Director/conductor - Choral Society concert with Sounds Interesting String Quartet Photo of Dan Walsh Dan Walsh "Created such a great atmosphere with everyone and played such an incredible variety of music. Would highly recommend!" Based in Shrewsbury, England Louise Williams 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 Mark - Funeral Photo of Scherzando Strings Scherzando Strings "Excellent communication prior to the wedding and helped us to choose our music. Very punctual on the day and they played our music so beautifully. Having the quintet added fantastic live music to the occasion. I would wholeheartedly recommend these musicians to anyone wanting live music. Read less" Based in Telford, England Vivienne Griffin - Wedding

Frequently asked questions

Hiring wedding ceremony musicians typically costs between £120 and £1,000+, with an average of £340. 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.
