Spreading love and joy through music on your special day.
Jess Hawkins
(used to be Jess Barker)
A trained, experienced, versatile and professional performer.
I LOVE TO SING.
I have sung for as long as I can remember, annoying everyone in my house by blasting out the likes of the Sugababes and Destiny's Child at all times (soz guys).
I trained in Musical Theatre at the Guildford School of Acting (GSA), and have subsequently performed in musicals across the UK and beyond.
My musical taste is pretty eclectic, and I love to sing a variety of genres.
I'm incredibly passionate about what I do, and it would be a bloomin' honour to sing for you at your wedding.
