Seona & Will Wedding Date: 16th Aug 2021 Ciaran performed during our ceremony and drinks reception for our wedding and he was absolutely fantastic. Our only regret is not booking him for longer! He went above and beyond, learning (unique) new songs for our ceremony upon request. Each song was incredible and so personal. Everything sounded fantastic and we received multiple compliments from our guests. He gelled well with all our suppliers and had such a personable touch. We cannot recommend Ciaran enough. If you want a professional, personal and skilled guitarist go for Ciaran. You will not be disappointed!

Suzanne & Ed Wedding Date: 8th Jun 2012 Ciaran Byrne is a really amazing guitar player and has such a wide range of music knowledge. For our wedding ceremony we chose some songs that aren't traditionally played on guitar, they sounded so unique and beautiful in the church. Our guest were blown away by the sound from the electric guitar and by Ciaran's playing ability. Your wedding day is such a special and emotional day and I really feel that the music added another layer to the ceremony. I love to hear some of the songs on the radio and think back to the day I got married. Beautiful memories, thanks Ciaran.

Louise & Ollie Wedding Date: 26th April 2013 Hi Ciaran, We're not long back from honeymoon now and I wanted to get onto you straightaway to let you know how happy we were with the music on the day of the wedding. You did a fabulous job and the songs we asked you to learn sounded fantastic. I'm sure you have a new appreciation now for all things "Beatles" !!! You played non stop for the drinks reception afterwards which I know went on a little longer than expected so thank you for continuing through. I will have no problem in recommending you to friends and family in the future Ciaran and wish you all the best Thanks a million.

Katie & Steve Wedding Date: 29th Aug 2021 I can't say enough positive things about Ciaran and his performance at our wedding. We wanted a specific piece played from the Legend of Zelda games as part of our ceremony and not only did Ciaran go out of his way to learn it for our benefit, he played it absolutely beautifully. It sounded better than I could have imagined. Everything he played on the day was exactly as we wanted it; the ceremony music was flawless, and at the drinks reception music was utterly beautiful. A massive thanks to Ciaran for helping to make our day so special.

As a Meath-based guitarist, I specialize in solo instrumental performances on acoustic and electric guitar. With over 15 years of experience, I've had the privilege of performing at various special occasions, including wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, Day Two parties, anniversaries, christenings, dinner parties, and providing ambiance in restaurants and corporate events. I'm also comfortable collaborating with other singers and musicians.

I'm happy to adapt to any musical style, but I enjoy putting my own spin on things by infusing genres with a melodic, atmospheric approach. I've also developed a strong repertoire of traditional wedding music. I'm well-versed in the structure of these events and know how to seamlessly incorporate your music preferences. I'm more than happy to offer guidance if needed.

I am lucky to be based very close to some of Ireland's most prestigious wedding venues such as Boyne Hill House, Station House Kilmessan, Ballymagarvey Village, Tankardstown House, Clonabreany House and Darver Castle.
