Ryan O'Shaughnessy Music
Dublin & Nationwide
If you're seeking something truly special and unique for your wedding day, I'd love to chat with you about turning your dreams into reality. I'm a singer/songwriter based in Dublin, known for several chart-topping hits over the past decade. I've recently started performing at wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, and even the occasional day-two party.
You might remember me from my performance on Britain's Got Talent in 2012, where I sang an original song about unrequited love. It became a number one selling album, touching the hearts of couples around the world. In 2018, I proudly represented Ireland at Eurovision, securing our spot in the finals after an eight-year absence.
When it comes to your wedding, I'm all about working closely with you to create the perfect musical backdrop for your special day. Your favorite songs and the ones that hold meaning in your relationship are important to me too.
If you have any questions or want to discuss your wedding plans, don't hesitate to reach out via email or WhatsApp. I'm here to help and wish you the best of luck with your wedding preparations!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Ryan perform at our wedding ceremony and day 2.! We truly couldn’t have asked for a more special person to serenade our forever day❤️ From the first note to the last song he brought an incredible energy and emotion that made the entire day feel even more magical. Ryan has such a beautiful voice and an amazing ability to read the room — every song felt perfectly timed and heartfelt. So many of our guests commented on how talented and personal he was. Professional, kind, and an absolute joy to work with — we’re beyond grateful. Highly recommend! My only wish is that I get to attend another wedding he is performing at.!!

We booked Ryan for our wedding last week, for the ceremony and reception. He was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Very responsive before the wedding and was fantastic on the day. His song suggestions for the mass were so helpful and the guests are still commenting on how great the music was throughout the ceremony and reception. Would highly recommend him if you’re looking for a wedding singer!

Ryan was so professional start to finish. We initially booked him for the ceremony and 3months out switched to the reception. He was completely flexible and accommodated us. His voice is amazing and all of the songs on our ‘wishlist’ he absolutely nailed. Couldn’t recommend him more and wish I had more events to book him for!

Ryan was the most incredible addition to our big day. He played and sang for our ceremony and reception drinks. Everyone commented on how incredible he was. For the ceremony Ryan was so easy going on working with us, and for the reception he brought the perfect vibe for our guests. He’s also the nicest guy ever which was just a bonus on top of his amazing performance. We genuinely felt so lucky to have him and would recommend anyone to have him as part of their wedding day.

He sang a mash up of Ed Sheeran “perfect” & kodaline “the one” for my aisle walk and it was just incredible. Guests can’t stop commenting on how good the music was. He is an incredibly talented musician.

Ryan was absolutely incredible on our wedding day. We requested a song during the ceremony that he hadn't heard before and he sang it better than the original. No request was too much. Ryan was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Many of our guests have since asked for his details to perform at their weddings. An absolute gent and we couldn't recommend him highly enough.

Ryan was the perfect singer for our intimate wedding ceremony! Communication was flawless since day 1, he’s very friendly and accommodating. The songs we requested for him to sing were sung as if he’s been singing them all his life. I had a few requests for our entrance song and even had to change some lyrics, and it was no bother to him. Also, I had to mention that our wedding was in West Cork and he drove down all the way from Dublin. Ryan is a dream to work with! He has a very angelic voice and to be honest, he sung all our songs better than the original.

We would like to say Thank you Ryan for the most memorable day of our lives! It was such an honour to have you performing all these beautiful songs during our wedding ceremony, drinks reception at Blackrock Castle and most of all have you as our guest celebrating our big day at Maryborough Hotel. Such a talented professional musician, very punctual, friendliest and kind-hearted person. All of our guests were also truly impressed and asked about Ryan and we definitely recommended Ryan for the upcoming events they have. Special thank you for the songs ‘Who do you love’ and ‘Civil war’ which were not in the original setlist, Roy was very happy.
We cannot thank you enough for making our wedding ceremony truly special. You created the exact atmosphere that we dreamed of and we are so grateful to you for sharing your beautiful gift with us and our guests on our day. Hope to see you soon! Warm regards,
Ilyas and Roy

Ryan played for our day 2 and made our day.
Communication was easy and he responded so promptly to any queries before the day. He has a wide range of tunes for any couples preference.
It was perfect- his start time was timed nicely for the early evening lull and his choice of songs was so in tune with the crowd as the night went on. Without anyone noticing he took us from chill music to dancing on the tables but he read the audience so well.
Hugely talented and lovely to deal with, would recommend.

We had Ryan sing at our wedding ceremony and I couldn't think of anyone more suited to our day. Ryan has a seamless voice which radiated the room perfectly. Not only does he have amazing talent, but he added to our day interacting with friends and family before the ceremony with such charisma and charm. Communication was effortless and he was willing to learn any song we wanted for the ceremony. He gave me one less thing to worry about on the day which is important to the bride! I felt comfortable that he had it all organised and he delivered with 110%. We would highly recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a ceremony singer.

Ryan was amazing at our ceremony. He brought some beautiful songs to us along with songs we had specifically requested. I think most of our engaged friends who attended our wedding have booked him for their own. He was very professional and we felt relaxed with every char we had with him. 10/10.

Ryan was so friendly and helpful from first communication. As well as taking onboard any song we wanted, using his wide knowledge of music Ryan gave us some great ideas of songs we had never even heard of and helped us pick our songs. Ryan was professional, punctual and so friendly on the day of our wedding, his talent shon through as he sang the songs for our ceremony. His voice suited all genres of music we picked.
I would highly recommend Ryan for a wedding.
