Photo of Richard Lilliston Jr Richard Lilliston Jr "I absolutely love listening to him play his saxophone!! I have hired him to play at our special events at work and for my family events. He knows how to create the perfect list of songs to fit your particular event. We love to see him come in the door and hate to see him leave. We sing along we play the instruments that he provides, it’s just a great experience. 10 out of 10 every time" Based in Richmond, Virginia 18th September 2026 Monica Photo of JTucker - Urban Jazz & Smooth R&B JTucker - Urban Jazz & Smooth R&B "We had a GREAT time! The Band was awesome...I'm still getting compliments from attendees (please pass that on to Haywood). We want to book JTucker & the Krewe for next year too! Thanks for your patience and working with us on this event. I can't tell you how much fun we had with the Band! Round of Applause! Lol -Jamal W.- Event Planner Springhill Suits Event Center Chester, VA" Based in Richmond, Virginia Jamal W. - Kappa Alpha Psi Photo of Just the 2 of Us Just the 2 of Us "Just the 2 of Us really enhanced by birthday experience. He interacted with the crowd and kept us entertained the whole time with great live music! It was really amazing!! I would recommend them for any occasion!" Based in Fredericksburg, Virginia (52 miles from Richmond) Jon Brown - Private Birthday Party Photo of James Anthony's Salute to Sinatra James Anthony's Salute to Sinatra "James Anthony was amazing when he performed for the United States Congress on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. He arrived early to rehearse with a 20 piece group of musicians and was a huge hit. The Congress Members and Senators were asking where I found him and we at the Las Vegas Metro Chamber of Commerce absolutely recommend him. Due to popular demand, we brought him back the next year to perform for the US Senate for their annual gala." Based in Fairfax, Virginia (90 miles from Richmond) Maisie R. - Las Vegas Metro Chamber of Commerce Photo of Russell Wilson Russell Wilson "Russell was a wonderful addition to our party, not only his wonderful music, but also his fun personality." Based in Marlow Heights, Maryland (93 miles from Richmond) TLee - Anniversary Photo of Jason Arce Jason Arce "Living states away, I wanted to express a novel way to wish my sister a Happy Birthday. After viewing Jason's video of his saxophone skills I felt he would be excellent for playing happy birthday for a door telegram. He was prompt in responding to messages as we figured out a day and time that worked best for him and my sister. He was professional, nice, and easy to talk to. Thank you again for a cherished memory, Jason!!" Based in Virginia Beach (95 miles from Richmond) Natalie - Birthday Telegram

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.

Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
