Photo of The Singing Wedding Waiters The Singing Wedding Waiters "Amazing, they were so enthusiastic, entertaining and got everyone involved. Highly recommend, was the high point of the wedding. Thank you so much xx" Based in Preston, England Dave Haworth - Private wedding Photo of Relative Cool Relative Cool "We thought Relative Cool were absolutely brilliant when they played at our wedding. The vocalist was fabulous! The 3 sets filled the whole evening and definitely had everyone up dancing. I also really appreciated little things like the singer chatting with one of the kids while they had a break between sets. They were thoroughly professional throughout. We spoke to Tom before the evening and he was always really responsive with messages. We would definitely recommend them and thank you very much for making it a great evening!" Based in Preston, England Jane - Wedding Photo of Wedding/funeral/events singer Wedding/funeral/events singer "I found Sarah, by chance, looking for a soprano to sing at my mother's funeral in 2022. Sadly for me, the funerals of my husband and father happened in succession all to quickly over the next two years. Sarah provided all occasions with such grace. We worked together to create something very special. Nothing is too much trouble for Sarah, she was able to suggest music from repertoire but also took on music she did not know, and sang all beautifully. Her voice and presence was a rock to me and everyone commented on the beauty of her voice. I would highly recommend Sarah for all occasions - happy, sad, fun, solemn and she will deliver a bespoke service. I remain deeply grateful to know Sarah and now call her a friend!" Based in Lancashire, England (10 miles from Preston) 18th June 2026 Jess Davidson MBE - Funeral Photo of Jan Holena Sax Jan Holena Sax "I cannot recommend Jan enough, from start to finish. He communicated on a regular basis about the genre of music and collaborated with my DJ to prepare for the evening. Jan really got the party going , he created a brilliant atmosphere on the dance floor which got everyone up dancing. Finally not only is he professional in his approach but he is an amazing saxophonist, I would highly recommend to anyone for their party."

Frequently asked questions

The average price for wedding musicians on Gig Heaven is £350, with rates from £120 to £1,300+. 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.
