Guitarists in Yorkshire & the Humber

Find guitarists for your wedding or event in Yorkshire & the Humber

Yorkshire & the Humber covers a lot of ground, from Hull, Sheffield, Acomb, Harrogate and Leeds. Our guitarists travel right across the region, so wherever your wedding or event is, you'll find acts on this page who already know the venues, the roads and the local crowds. They're booked for ceremonies, drinks receptions and dinners.

This region page covers Hull & East Yorkshire, Leeds & West Yorkshire, North Yorkshire, Sheffield & South Yorkshire and York. If you already know which area your venue is in, the links below take you to the page for that area, with venues and acts picked for it.

Venues across Yorkshire & the Humber include Hull Guildhall, Cutlers' Hall, Hotel du Vin York, Middleton Lodge, The Mansion and Sledmere House. It's worth asking yours early about finish times and any sound limiter, as both affect what works on the night.

Not every guitarist does the same job. Within this category you'll find classical, Spanish, jazz and acoustic pop guitarists, and knowing the feel you want for your wedding or event makes the choice much easier.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched acts with clients right across the country. The guitarists here all cover Yorkshire & the Humber and include travel and any amplification in the price. The instant quote button shows pricing and availability for your date in seconds.

The essentials:

  • Typical cost: £250 to £900, depending on line-up, date and how long the act plays
  • Always included: travel and any amplification, in every quote
  • Acts travel to venues right across Yorkshire & the Humber
  • Summer Saturdays and December dates book up first
  • Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

Some venues have sound limiters, early finishes or restrictions on where acts can set up. Check these early, as they can decide which line-up is the better fit for your wedding or event.

Expect to pay from around £250 up to £900 or more for a larger line-up. The act, the date and your set times make the biggest difference. Every quote includes travel and any amplification, so nothing is added later.

Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the actual line-up you'd be booking, with videos, audio and a song list. Underneath are reviews from clients, often at venues you'll recognise.

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 event. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.

Usually the ceremony music, then background music during the drinks reception and wedding breakfast. Styles range from classical and Spanish guitar to acoustic versions of pop songs.

“The duo were fantastic both in their music and in their attitude towards making the event a success! They accommodated some last minute changes to the schedule without hesitation and also accompanied some 'Karaoke' style entertainment from our MD. I would definitely use them again and recommend to others. Many thanks!”

“Marcus really made our perfect day complete, he sang and played guitar doing three sets throughout the day, and did an outstanding job. All of our guests have commented on how good he was and how it made the day that bit more special. We would highly recommend Marcus to anyone, nothing was too much trouble for him, he even learnt a new song for us. Thank you once again from Ash & Cobie”

“Jessie was amazing from the minute we first spoke to him, so chilled and made everything stress free which is exactly what we wanted. He has the most incredible voice and his performance of our first dance was honestly unreal, we actually preferred it to the original! Even with only 30 guests at the wedding party, he still managed to fill the dance floor with the DJ set later on. We cannot thank him enough.”

“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.”

“Paul is such a lovely guy and he kept in touch frequently in the run-up to the wedding. Paul was happy to play songs we requested and not to play songs we asked him not to. He played the music we requested in between his usual set and guests commented on how good the music was. Paul also made announcements for the first dance etc. which was great. Overall we were delighted we had booked Paul and highly recommend him for your wedding.”

“We thought Ian Was amazing! All our guests said how brilliant his voice was and how much they enjoyed his take on classic songs. He was very easy to contact when we were planning everything and even agreed to sing a few songs in memory of my late Mum and Dad. We booked him immediately after hearing him on an agency web site! Thanks for being a part of our special day Ian.”
