A string quartet is a highly-sought after option for weddings and events, and lends an air of extravagance and elegance. We recommend a string quartet for large events and spaces.
If you feel that booking a string quartet is a little out of your budget, we certainly have other ensembles available for you to hire. For more information about whether a string quartet, violin and cello duo, string trio or other ensemble is right for you, please inquire!
Our booking process is smooth – we will send you a contract and invoice to secure the date in our diaries, and we are readily available to respond to any inquiries you may have
We look forward to working with you and making your special day memorable! Please get in touch for your bespoke quote.
HIRE A STRING QUARTET IN LONDON OR FURTHER AFIELD
Our professional musicians are based in London and classically trained at the best conservatoires in the world. Alongside our busy performance careers, we love to perform at weddings, corporate events and for parties. Although based in London, we are always excited to travel further to play for your event, including internationally. We have performed for weddings in France and Italy.
Reliable, beautifully-presented, stylish, and most importantly excellent musicians, we will organise all the musical side of things for you, leaving you stress-free and enabling you to simply enjoy our string quartet performance for your special day.
WEDDING STRING QUARTET FOR HIRE
Our string quartets would be delighted to perform a special choice of song for your wedding! Usually there are at least three songs you need to choose – one for the bridal entrance, one for the signing of the registry, and one for the exit of the bridal party.
There are a few choices which are very popular with our clients: Pachelbel’s ‘Canon’, ‘Can’t Help Falling in Love’ by Elvis and ‘A Thousand Years’ by Christina Perri (these three are very popular songs for walking down the aisle!) If there is a special song you would like us to play for you, please let us know and we will try to source the music for you. We are happy to play your special request that is not on our repertoire list for free.
We play Bridgerton arrangements as well – always a huge hit!
It’s highly recommended to book our string quartet to perform as the guests are seated for the ceremony, to set the mood and ambience.
For the drinks and dinner reception we have an extensive variety of wonderful string quartet arrangements that, in our experience, have proven to be very popular. We are happy to take some suggestions for background music as well!
London Strings is able to play indoors or outdoors. Please note, for outdoor events we must have shelter provided.
STRING QUARTET HIRE FOR PARTIES AND CORPORATE EVENTS
It’s a great idea to hire a string quartet for your corporate event or party – the background music and elegance of the ensemble adds a touch of class and sparkle that will bring your event to life!
We have performed for many corporate events, cocktail, Christmas and birthday parties. Some of our clients prefer classical music, whilst others prefer pop covers – just let us know what you are hoping to hear!
Some of the high-profile corporate event venues in which we have performed include Mansion House, Parliament and Syon House. Of course, we have performed for more casual business luncheons and even house parties as well, contact us if you would like more details!
