Guitarists in Newcastle upon Tyne
Hire a guitarist in Newcastle upon Tyne
A solo guitarist is a relaxed, flexible choice for the daytime part of a wedding. In Newcastle upon Tyne, guitarists are booked for ceremonies, drinks receptions, wedding breakfasts and parties, playing anything from classical and Spanish guitar to acoustic versions of modern songs.
Whether your wedding is near Newcastle and Gateshead or further afield, the guitarists here cover the whole of Newcastle upon Tyne. Local venues include The Biscuit Factory, The Parlour at Blagdon and Northside Farm, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up.

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.

Classical and Spanish guitar gives a traditional, elegant sound for a ceremony. Acoustic fingerstyle suits a relaxed drinks reception on the lawn. For a party, look for a singer-guitarist with an upbeat set list and a PA to suit the room.
Most guitarist bookings fall between £250 and £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. The date and time of year make up the rest of the difference, so a weekday or winter date can cost less than a summer Saturday.
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.
