Acoustic Musicians in Buckinghamshire

Book acoustic musicians in Buckinghamshire

Acoustic music suits the parts of a wedding or party where people want to talk as well as listen. In Buckinghamshire, acoustic musicians are booked for ceremonies, drinks receptions, garden parties and wedding breakfasts, playing familiar songs in a stripped-back style that fills a room without taking it over.

Across Buckinghamshire, acoustic acts are booked for weddings and events in and around Aylesbury and High Wycombe. Venues in the area include Stoke Place, Latimer Place and Danesfield House Hotel, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. You'll find more Buckinghamshire venues below, including Creslow Manor, Huntsmill Farm and Hartwell House & Spa, each with its own page.

Acoustic acts range from solo singer-guitarists to duos and small trios with harmonies. Repertoire usually runs from classic love songs and folk to acoustic versions of recent chart hits, so the music feels familiar without being loud.

Hireaband has booked wedding entertainment since 1999. Each acoustic act on this page travels to Buckinghamshire as standard, and the instant quote button shows prices and availability for your date without waiting for a reply.

The essentials:

  • Typical cost: £350 to £1,400, depending on how long they perform and the date
  • Your quote shows exactly what's included
  • Ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast packages available from many acts
  • Most couples book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday
  • Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

A solo singer-guitarist suits a ceremony or a small drinks reception. A duo adds harmonies and a fuller sound for a larger courtyard or dining room. A trio, often with cajon or bass, gives more energy for a garden party or a drinks reception with a lot of guests.

Prices usually start from around £350 and go up to £1,400 or so. A solo musician for a single set sits at the lower end; a duo or trio covering the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast sits towards the upper end. Your quote shows the full price for your date, so you can compare acts on the same basis.

Every act's page has video and audio of the performer you would actually book, along with their repertoire and written reviews from couples who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.

Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the wedding. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.

“Exceptionally talented pair. Had the pleasure of listening to them on the P&O Britannia and they helped us have a fantastic time, we were truly entertained. The vocals are beautifully on point and create a perfect atmosphere. Best of all is their choice of repertoire, so much variety and perfect to relax to; I even found myself singing along on several occasions! Thanks for some great music.”

“Absolutely fantastic, very professional. A beautiful voice which was even better than the video. We booked them for 1 hr and to sing our first dance song. It is a memory that I will never forget. All the guests really enjoyed the music as they sang songs from all genres and did it extremely well. Very talented. We are very pleased that we booked them and could not have asked for more.”

“Really great to meet you and the band last night, thanks so much for an awesome performance! Everyone absolutely loved it, as you could probably tell by the dancing on tables and repeated calls for an encore :) You hit the nail on the head in terms of the brief and the kind of performance we were after and you totally brought your A-game!”

“Hi. We would like to record our appreciation to Declan Daniel for the music he played at our wedding reception last Saturday. Many of the guests commented on the quality of his playing and there is no doubt that Declan's music added a very special ingredient to our special day. Please pass on our thanks and best wishes for his musical career. Many thanks also for a very efficient service. Best wishes”

“I’d recommend Ian without hesitation. Not only is he a huge talent with a fine repertoire, he is a genuinely good guy who was friendly and communicative during the build-up to my wedding. On the day itself he went above and beyond what I’d expect from a performer by allowing my son (a beginner on guitar) to play along to one of his songs. Ian is a top talent and a top man.”

(5)

“I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for the amazing performance the band did on Saturday. Honestly, it was one of the highlights of the day and we were absolutely delighted. We couldn’t have asked for a better band - you guys were fantastic. Please let me know if you ever need a reference because we would love to recommend you guys”
