A guide to booking

Hire Wedding Musicians in Canada

Wedding musicians in Canada offer live music for every part of your celebration, from intimate ceremony performances to high-energy reception entertainment. These performers include solo instrumentalists, acoustic duos, jazz groups, classical ensembles and larger bands, giving you options to match any venue size or musical preference.

Choosing Live Music for Your Wedding

The right musicians depend on your venue, guest numbers and the mood you want at each stage of the day. Acoustic and classical performers work well for ceremonies and drinks receptions, while larger acts with fuller sound suit evening parties. Many wedding performers offer multi-part packages, so a single booking can cover several hours across different stages of the celebration. Ask about setup requirements, repertoire flexibility and whether the act provides their own sound equipment.

5/5 from 6,678 reviews
Photo of Nairoz Lakhani Nairoz Lakhani "My friend and I visited Desi North in Milton for dinner on Saturday night, and it turned out to be an absolutely wonderful experience. The food was delicious, but the highlight of the evening was the amazing live performance by Nairoz Lakhani. Her voice was beautiful, soulful, and filled the restaurant with positive energy. What made the night even more special was that she graciously sang one of my favorite songs upon request. That personal touch made the evening truly unforgettable. The combination of great food, excellent ambiance, and Nairoz's outstanding performance made for a perfect night. Thank you to Nairoz and the entire Desi North team for creating such a pleasant and memorable experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for great South Asian food and a fantastic live music experience by Ms. Nairoz Lakhani in Milton."

Not enough cats can just Fred Astaire their way through a song."

Thank you, Barry, for a great evening!"

Loved the music selection and your interaction with your audiences! The best music / sound, we went out of our way to catch their sets each night!!!" Based in Barrie, Ontario 3rd October 2026 Lori Mathieu 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!" Based in Calgary, Alberta 30th September 2026 Becky Martin - Wedding Ceremony & Cocktail Hour Photo of Awab Paracha Awab Paracha "Amazing performance! If you're looking for a guitarist to elevate your special event, I highly recommend Awab. I recently hired him to play at my marriage proposal, and his performance was absolutely phenomenal. From the moment he started playing, he set a magical tone that made the evening truly unforgettable. His ability to integrate the songs we had chosen, as well as accommodate some on-the-spot requests, demonstrated his versatility and commitment to creating a personalized experience. His professionalism was evident from the outset—arriving punctually and ready to perform, his voice permeated the night sky even the ducks in the pond came over to enjoy. If you want a musician who not only plays with skill but also with heart, look no further than Awab. He played a significant role in making our proposal night perfect, and I have no doubt he will bring the same level of excellence to any event." Based in London, Ontario 29th September 2026 Clive Chirunga - Singer/Songwriter, Singing Guitarist

Frequently asked questions

The average price for wedding musicians on Gig Heaven is $650, with rates from $180 to $2,400+. Pricing depends on the type of musician, the number of performers and how many parts of the wedding day are covered. All-day packages that span the ceremony, reception and evening entertainment typically offer better value than booking separately for each.

The wedding musicians include a huge range of performers suited to different parts of a wedding day, including string quartets, harpists, pianists, acoustic duos, jazz bands, singers and party bands. Many musicians offer packages covering multiple parts of the day.

Most wedding musicians can perform during the ceremony (processional, signing of documents, recessional), the drinks reception, the wedding meal, and the evening party. Some artists offer all-day packages that cover multiple segments. It is advisable to browse profiles to find musicians who match the style and schedule of your wedding.

The most popular wedding musicians can be booked up many months in advance during wedding season. Gig Heaven recommends securing your preferred artists six to twelve months before the wedding date. Less popular dates or midweek weddings may have more availability at shorter notice.

Many wedding musicians are happy to learn a special song for a key moment such as walking down the aisle or the first dance. It is worth making any song requests well in advance to allow time for preparation and rehearsal.

Most wedding musicians are self-contained and provide their own instruments and PA system for standard wedding venues. For larger venues, outdoor ceremonies or marquees, additional amplification may be needed. It is a good idea to confirm equipment details with the musician.
