About Jordan

The perfect solo artist for your wedding ceremony or reception. Beautiful voice backed by smooth guitar undertones, to really set the mood!
Guitarist
Portsmouth
Public liability insurance of £5 million

Jordan Rimes has been playing as a solo artist since he was 14 years old and has always had the bug for music! He has had success with original songs that he has written and offers wonderful versions of covers for weddings sets. Jordan's voice is likened to Ed Sheeran, James Bay and James Morrison and his ability to set the mood in a room is awe inspiring - he really can create a calm & romantic vibe during the actual ceremony or drinks reception. He has been playing weddings for a number of years and is highly experienced in this setting. Jordan is also happy to learn a new cover song for you, in the case you would like your 'first dance' performed live and he can also offer an extremely rare add on of writing a song for you! This is a fantastic opportunity for either the groom or bride to surprise their partners during the speeches or during the reception with a words written by each other, performed by Jordan. Jordan will arrive with a compact PA system, so he can squeeze into available spaces, can provide playlist music through the PA during breaks in live sets and can provide use of the PA system for speeches. Book Jordan now, to make your day even more special!

Jordan absolutely made our wedding day! We couldn’t have asked for me. He is super talented with the most amazing song knowledge, fabulous guitar skills and the best voice. All of our guests of all ages loved him and couldn’t stop raving about how fab he was. He had made a playlist from all of our song choices and fulfilled some random guest requests too - even expertly working out on the spot how to play some. We would highly HIGHLY recommend booking Jordan for your event.
