Guitarists in London
Hire a guitarist in London
Live guitar fits almost any part of a wedding day. Across London, guitarists play the ceremony, set a laid-back mood for the drinks reception and play through the meal, and singer-guitarists can carry on into a livelier set.
Across London, guitarists are booked for weddings and events in and around central London, Greenwich and Richmond. Venues in the area include The Gore Hotel, Eltham Palace and St Pancras Renaissance Hotel London, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. The Lensbury, Grand Connaught Rooms and Syon House at Syon Park are among the other London venues listed further down, each with its own page.
The guitar is one of the most versatile instruments for a wedding. Classical and Spanish styles suit a ceremony, fingerstyle arrangements set a relaxed tone for the drinks reception, and a singer-guitarist can lead a sing-along later on.
Since 1999, Hireaband has matched couples with live entertainment for their wedding day. The guitarists listed here all travel to London, and the instant quote button shows pricing and availability in a few seconds.

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.
The instant quote button gives you a price and availability for your date straight away. From there, we manage the contract and deposit and keep you updated until the day. Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and there's an emergency contact line on the day in case anything needs sorting.
