"Mat was hired to play acoustic guitar at our wedding, he did so much more than that. Mat took a very personal song to us and made his own acoustic arrangement of it creating a unique track that truly made our day beautiful, and brought a tear to multiple guests eyes, and my own! I can’t thank him enough for everything he did for our wedding, he was a great communicator before the day, keeping in regular contact in build up to the wedding. He suggested set lists and executed them with deft skill and beauty and created an atmosphere beyond what I could’ve imagined. Thank you Mat for all you did, we put our trust in you and from your first response to your final piece we couldn’t have asked for a better musician. You truly are the epitome of artist. "

FAQs about hiring Wedding Guitarists in West Sussex

Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore

What kind of guitarist should I hire?

Choosing a guitarist will depend on the context of your event - guitarists usually specialise in a specific style, such as jazz, classical, Spanish, or pop/rock. A jazz or classical guitarist might be perfect for wedding reception background music, or a corporate event, whereas you might want a pop/rock guitarist for a birthday party, or a karoake sing-along.

Will I need to provide the guitarist with any equipment?

Guitarists will come fully prepared for your event - they will usually provide light amplification, a guitar stool (if they'll be performing sitting down), and a music stand. If you're in a larger venue, they may make use of the venue's PA system.

I want my guitarist to sing as well. Is this possible?

Yes! Many guitarists will sing and play guitar simultaneously - they can also do a mixture of accompanied and accompanied music to provide some variation to their performance! They'll most likely mention this information on their profile, as well as have links to videos showcasing their skills.
