What moves the price

  • Parts of the day — a wedding singer covering the ceremony, drinks and evening charges more than one evening set
  • Number of sets — each extra 45-minute set adds to the wedding singer's fee
  • Sound and lighting — a full PA, dance-floor lights and a DJ playlist between sets add kit and time
  • Special songs — learning a first dance or an entrance song can carry a charge
  • Peak season — summer Saturdays are booked first and priced highest
  • Travel and accommodation — a wedding singer travelling to a far-flung venue may add mileage or an overnight stay

How to pay less

  • Book the wedding singer for the evening only and play recorded music for the ceremony
  • Choose songs the singer already performs rather than paying for new ones
  • Pick a Friday, Sunday or winter date, when wedding singers are easier to book and may charge less

Before you book

  • Check the venue's sound limiter and finish time before booking a wedding singer
  • Ask whether the singer can provide a microphone for the speeches
  • Confirm what happens if the singer is ill and whether a replacement is guaranteed
  • Agree set times, breaks and a meal for the singer in the contract

Wedding Singer cost: questions people ask

Usually £320–£1,000 in the UK, with about £550 typical. Single evening sets sit lowest, while full-day bookings on summer Saturdays sit highest.

Typically two or three sets of around 45 minutes, plus a few songs during the ceremony if that is part of the booking.

In England and Wales, music at a civil ceremony must not be religious, and the registrar may ask to see the song list in advance. Check with the registrar or celebrant early.

Many singers play a DJ playlist between sets, and some offer a full DJ service for an extra fee.

Extra sets, a full DJ service, lighting, new songs and overnight stays are commonly charged separately.
