Your Guide to Hiring a Guitarist

A guitarist suits the softer moments of a Peninsula event: a garden ceremony in the Main Ridge hinterland, drinks on a winery terrace, or a relaxed Sunday table in a cellar-door restaurant, where conversation matters as much as the music.

The list is very small so far, with one performer whose listing covers guitar alongside DJ and MC bookings. That combination can be handy, as the same person can cover the ceremony, then move to dance music and announcements later in the day.

Questions to ask before you lock it in:

Instrumental only, or guitar and vocals, and which styles they play best

Whether they amplify for an outdoor ceremony, and how they handle wind on an exposed lawn or by the water

If they can play your chosen walk-in, signing and exit songs, and how much notice they need to learn one

How long the booking runs and what it costs to stay on through canapés

Travel to the Peninsula, since they are a Melbourne-based act

Outdoor music sounds best with some shelter and a power source within reach. Send the guitarist your date, venue and timings for a direct quote; finding them here adds no fee.

Ceremonies, where gentle music covers guests arriving, the processional and the register signing
Pre-dinner drinks and canapés, while photos are being taken elsewhere
Long lunches at wine, gin and beer experiences or private dining rooms, where a full band would be too loud
Smaller gatherings such as a baby shower or anniversary at home

Building the Rest of the Music

For dancing later, add a DJ or live band, or ask whether the guitarist's DJ service could cover it
If you need someone on the microphone for speeches, see MC hire
For a hired sound system at a private property, speaker hire can fill the gap
All performers are gathered under entertainment

Practical Details

Give the guitarist a simple timeline with cues, such as when the bride or groom arrives
Ask for a chair, a shaded spot in summer and a cover in case of a shower
Confirm with the venue where a performer can set up without blocking photos

Answers to Common Guitarist Questions

How many guitarists are listed on the Mornington Peninsula?

Just one right now, a Melbourne-based performer who covers the Peninsula. Contact them early if your ceremony is on a summer or spring weekend.

Can a guitarist play for both the ceremony and reception?

Many can, and the performer listed here also DJs and MCs, so one booking could cover several parts of the day. Ask how they would split the time and what that costs.

Does a guitarist need power outdoors?

For a ceremony with more than a handful of guests, a small amplifier usually helps, which means power or a battery unit. Ask what they bring and what the venue can supply.

Can I choose the songs for my ceremony?

Most guitarists will play requests for key moments if you give them enough notice. Send your list early so they can learn anything new.

What happens if it rains on an outdoor ceremony?

Guitars and amps need to stay dry, so agree a covered spot or an indoor backup with the venue. Tell the guitarist the plan before the day.

Is a guitarist good for a corporate lunch?

Yes, a solo player works well as background music at a lunch or networking event. Mention the room size and that you want conversation to carry.
