Default Guitarist for ceremony near Los Cabos

I am getting married about an hour north of Cabo San Lucas. I've had the hardest time finding musicians for the ceremony/dinner. Ideally, we'd like a guitarist or duo/trio to play. I've had (expensive!) quotes from Mariachi groups that can send any combination of musicians, but I cannot find independent guitar players. We just don't have $1500 to spend on music!

Has anyone found a local person that is more affordable?

Hi there! Did you like their selection of music for the DJ. You never know if they are going to have good choices or not.

I wonder if the traveling distance makes it so expensive. Do you know??
