Guitarists in Cumbria
Wedding and event guitarists in Cumbria
A live guitarist brings warmth to the quieter moments of a wedding. In Cumbria, guitarists play the ceremony, the drinks reception and the wedding breakfast, in styles from classical and Spanish to modern acoustic.
Popular wedding venues in Cumbria include The Den at Four Acre, Storrs Hall and Hidden River Barn, and our guitarists travel to weddings and events across Carlisle, Kendal and Windermere. Tell us your venue when you enquire and we'll help you choose an act that suits the space. Other venues in the area include Armathwaite Hall Hotel and Spa, Holker Hall and Broadoaks Country House, and each has its own venue page further down.
Guitarists include instrumental players, who play classical, Spanish and fingerstyle arrangements, and singer-guitarists, who add vocals to acoustic versions of well-known songs.

An instrumental guitarist suits a ceremony or a drinks reception where the music should stay in the background. A singer-guitarist adds vocals, which works well for the aisle, a first dance or a party set where guests want to sing along.
Expect to pay from around £250 up to £900. A ceremony-only booking sits at the lower end, while a guitarist covering the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast, or a singer-guitarist playing into the evening, sits towards the upper end. Busy Saturdays in summer and December sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.
Each act's page carries real video and audio, a repertoire list and reviews from previous clients. Watching a couple of clips tells you far more than any description can, so it's worth listening before you choose.
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.
