Engagement party Singing Guitarists for hire in Barnsley
Latest reviews of our Engagement Party Singing Guitarists in Barnsley
"Wow!!Absolutely superb! Outstanding! Incredible—truly not enough descriptive words to highlight just how amazing Paul was. He is a great acoustic guitarist with a fantastic voice. When he plays his set—and I’m calling it a set because, similar to a DJ, he doesn't stop between songs—the transitions are completely seamless thanks to how gifted he is. I don’t know how he manages to keep the music going! He has an excellent musical repertoire. For my husband’s party, I requested a general vibe and sent him a rough playlist featuring the likes of The Killers, George Ezra, and Ed Sheeran, and he did not fail to deliver. Honestly, he is going to be my go-to artist from now on. On top of that, he engages so well with the guests and gave plenty of nods to the birthday boy throughout the night. I’m gushing now, but he really is brilliant! I am so lucky he had availability. Paul, thank you so much. What I didn’t share with you at the time is that my husband received a terminal cancer diagnosis in January 2025 and was told he wouldn’t see the end of the year. So here we are, a year and a half later, celebrating his 43rd birthday, and you made it so incredibly special. Thank you so much! (Oh, and apologies for our horrendous backing vocals, lol!) As we all said, we know you’re the bee's knees—and we were all stone-cold sober! Wishing you all the luck and success in the future!"

"Leon was great, after we needing to find someone after a last minute let down by another musician for our wedding. We had so many compliments from guests on how great his singing and playing guitar was- we only wish we saw more of him rather than getting our photos taken haha! Would highly recommend "

"Matt played at our wedding on Friday for our ceremony and drinks reception, and all we can say is… WOW! From the moment he started playing, he created the most amazing atmosphere. His guitar playing is incredible, his voice is absolutely unreal, and every single song was played to perfection. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better to be part of our day. We had so many compliments from our guests, and we lost count of the number of people asking us where we’d found him because they thought he was so brilliant! Not only is Matt unbelievably talented, but he’s also one of the friendliest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet. His passion for music shines through in every performance, and it honestly made our day even more special. We genuinely can’t recommend Matt enough. Booking him was one of the best decisions we made, and it definitely won’t be the last time we book him. We already can’t wait to listen to him again! Thank you, Matt, for helping make our wedding day so unforgettable. If you’re looking for a wedding musician, look no further – he’s simply the best! Molly & Sam July 17th 2026 xoxo"
