We would book him again in the future." Based in Center City, Pennsylvania 17th July 2026 Brett Daniels - Private Event Photo of Almost CHER Almost CHER "Helene was absolutely stunning. She's beautiful, funny, engaging and talented. She put on a great show and it really was the highlight of our party. She looked like Cher, sounded like Cher and her costumes were incredible. She was wonderful to do business with as well. Very professional and accommodating. She worked everything out herself with the DJ so I didn't have to worry about a thing. I really appreciated that because as the hostess I had enough to do. If you're thinking about entertainment for your event, you won't be disappointed if you hire Helene. My entire party has called me to rave about her performance. Thanks so much Helene!!! Kim J. Titusville, NJ" Based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Kim J. Titusville, NJ - Private Party

Frequently asked questions

The average price for wedding musicians on Gig Heaven is $500, with rates from $150 to $1,700+. 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.
