Jade Thornton
Weddings

Hi I'm Jade, a singing guitarist based in Buckinghamshire, specialising in daytime wedding music.

A little about me

Since first picking up a guitar in 2014, I knew that all I wanted to do in life is be a musician. Three years later, while at college, I began busking with a friend and fell in love with the art of performance. Whether I'm playing on London's Southbank or at a clifftop wedding in the hills of Ronda in Spain, I hope to be able to make the day of someone that extra bit special.

I've been playing weddings since 2018 and now have seven years experience helping to bring the joy (and sometimes tears!) to each special occasion. I'm based in Amersham, Buckinghamshire, and continue to play across the UK and for destination weddings. In 2023, I received a high commendation from the National Wedding Industry Awards, for the south-central region.

'Absolutely blown away by this wonderful woman. Her voice, songs and playing was the most epic addition to our wedding day. She was a professional, did everything with ease and subtly and elegantly moved from position to position throughout the day. Could not recommend her enough - everything and more than I thought she would be. Thank you again and again - book this lady for your wedding day and you absolutely will not forget her. All our guests want to find where she is performing next so we can go along and watch'

FAQs

  • How do I secure my booking?
    For all of my bookings, I require a 40% deposit and a signed contract. I completely understand that all budgets are different, so lower deposits and payment plants are available upon request.
  • What happens next?
    I will follow up a couple of months before the big day to confirm all final details, but will always be on hand to answer any questions you have.
  • What do I need from you?
    As a soloist, my requirements are very minimal! They are: A parking space (unless your venue is in Central London) A small, designated space for me to perform. No larger than 2x2m. 2 power outlets (1 minimum as I can provide an extension lead) Refreshments to be available (water is honestly all I require!) Access to WiFi if your venue has patchy mobile data coverage for lyrics and chords.
  • Do you travel, and how far?
    I'm always up for an adventure! I drive myself to all gigs (unless better by train for central) and charge 50p per mile. On some occasions, the combination of travel time and finish/starting time may result in a hotel room charge, but I will let you know when your provide your venue location. Please note this doesn't apply to destination weddings, so please get in touch for an accurate quote.
  • Can I pick the songs?
    I always encourage you to curate your own setlist from my repertoire! My repertoire can be found above but I will also email the full document when an enquiry is received. There are three options we can explore for the perfect soundtrack to your big day: 1. You pick the entirety of my setlist. I may re-shuffle the order a little to suit the mood as your day progresses but love playing a setlist curated by you! 2. We collaborate! I can draft a setlist and send it over, to which you can approve and make as many changes as you'd like. Alternatively, you can let me know which artists you're liking at the moment and I can focus on them a little bit more. 3. You allow me to play my own setlist! This has gone down incredibly well in the past, as both couple and guests love to guess what's coming next & keeps the afternoon fresh! Please note that all bookings include at least 2 songs learned for free, with any extras being £20 each.
  • How much time do you need to set up?
    I always arrive 1 hour (45 minutes at the very latest) to all wedding bookings. This allows me to set up, find where I am playing and settle in; all without having to rush. I have timed myself before and can set up within 15 minutes!
  • Can you play outdoors?
    Yes! I have two different amplifiers that allow me to adapt to any requirements your venue has. My two options are - Bose S1 Pro - This smaller amp can be battery powered, is incredibly portable and discreet (ideal for ceremonies) and can also be placed on a stand to elevate it above guests. Bose L1 Compact - This amplifier is a lot more powerful, but requires mains power. I will always default to this amplifier when the venue is drivable, unless stated that there is no power available. At all times, I must insure that my equipment is dry, but I will always allow plenty of buffer time to liaise with venue staff to monitor the weather and adhere to backup plans if necessary.
  • Can you take requests on the day?
    If any guests ask for requests that aren't in my repertoire and I have heard of them; I can always do my best to give them a go. Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee that I can take many requests, so I will always stick to our pre-agreed setlist.
