Solo Singers in London

Wedding and party singers in London

A live singer turns key moments of a wedding into memories: the walk down the aisle, the signing of the register, the drinks on the lawn. In London, solo singers are booked for exactly those moments, and many also play parties and private celebrations.

London has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Fulham Palace and Grand Connaught Rooms to Royal Botanic Gardens Kew. Our solo singers travel to towns across the area, including central London, Greenwich and Richmond, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. Other venues in the area include The Gore Hotel, The Lensbury and St Pancras Renaissance Hotel London, and each has its own venue page further down.

Solo singers come in a few different styles. Some accompany themselves on guitar, some sing at the piano, some specialise in swing and crooner songs, and others perform to backing tracks for a fuller sound.

We've been booking wedding entertainment since 1999, and every solo singer on this page covers London. You can check your date and price straight away with the instant quote button.

The essentials:

  • Prices usually from £250 up to £900
  • Many acts can cover more than one part of the day in a single booking
  • Summer Saturdays book up first, so it pays to enquire early
  • The quote you receive sets out exactly what's included
  • 14-day change-of-mind refund on every booking

Think about the part of the day you want covered and the kind of songs you like. For a ceremony, choose a singer whose repertoire includes the songs you want for the aisle and the signing. For a party, look for a singer with an upbeat set list and a PA big enough for the room.

Prices usually start from around £250 and go up to £900 or so. A single set for the ceremony sits at the lower end, while a singer covering the ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast, or an evening set, 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.

Use the instant quote button on this page to see prices and availability for your date. Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the day if anything needs sorting quickly.

FAQs

Most cover the ceremony, the drinks reception and the wedding breakfast, and some also play an evening set. Many can learn a special song for the aisle or the first dance.

Many do. Some accompany themselves on guitar or piano, while others sing to backing tracks for a fuller sound. Each singer's page shows exactly how they perform.

Yes. Singer-guitarists and singers using backing tracks bring everything they need. Singer-pianists usually bring a digital piano if the venue in London doesn't have one.

Very little. A small corner of the room and a standard power socket is usually enough.

Typically £250 to £900, depending on how long they perform and the date. Your quote shows exactly what's included.

Most can, given a few weeks' notice. Mention it when you enquire and the singer will confirm.

“I hope you got back ok on Saturday night. We just wanted to thank you for making our wedding evening so perfect. The music was amazing and everyone really enjoyed it. Slightly biased, but I have never been to a wedding when the dance floor has been so full for so much of the night! Looking forward to seeing the photos. Thanks again”

“Fantastic Singer and Entertainer. Very versatile from Solo Artist, DJ. Greg has a wide range of songs from 60s to present day and can adapt to any age group or type of party mood or function to suit individual needs. Absolutely brilliant entertainer and value for money. We have used him on several occasions and went down a storm every time.”

“Dale is a very talented musician with great ability on both bass and vocally. Dale covers all styles of music expertly and understands the role in enhancing guest experiences on board, encouraging their enjoyment in bars and dance areas. Dale’s onstage performance is always full of energy and he displays a clear passion for the music he is playing.”

“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.”

“Joe was perfect for our wedding. He played and sang beautifully both during the reception and for 3 hours during the reception dinner and after-party. He made our day even more special. My family kept him busy all night making all kinds of song requests and he played them all! Booking him again for my mum's birthday party next year.”

“Alan was fantastic, he played 3 sets with the middle one being Elton John which was fabulous. He read the crowd and knew exactly what would get everyone going. We had a mixed age range and everyone loved it. Highly recommend Alan for any party.
Thanks to the team at Hire a Band for organising everything for us.”
