"An absolute highlight of our wedding! We booked Aderyn as a string duo for our wedding breakfast and they created a magical atmosphere for us and our guests. Their music choices were on point and so many guests commented on how brilliant they were. They left to lots of cheers and rapturous applause. Sion responded promptly to all messages and everything was clear in the run up to the big day. Would highly recommend! "

"Serenade Strings were brilliant at our wedding. They were flexible to our repertoire, including a request for a specific arrangement that we'd written for the drinks reception. We were especially grateful for their performance within our ceremony, in which they were happy to sit in an unusual formation to accommodate the space, and flexed their set-list in real-time when both the processional and the signing of the schedule took longer than expected. We're very grateful to Serenade Strings, and would highly recommend them to any other couple looking for a string quartet for their wedding!"

"Brynafon String Quartet added a truly magical dimension to our wedding day. All of our guests commented about how lovely the music was both before our ceremony and during our drinks reception. The music certainly helped me relax while I was waiting for my bride to arrive. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Brynafon, and I could not recommend them more! Thank you so much!!!"

What sort of music will a string quartet play?
String quartets are usually professional ensembles comprised of experienced classical musicians. You can bet they'll know Bach, Brahms, and Beethoven like the back of their hand. Having said that, many string quartets are well-versed in playing covers of pop music, or even jazz. When looking to hire a string quartet, make sure you check their song list - you might be surprised at what you see! If you have a special request, they should be able to arrange it for you too.
I want a string quartet to perform at my wedding/event: which parts of the wedding/event should they play?
In most instances, the string quartet will perform during the following parts of a wedding ceremony: seating of the guests, entrance of the bride, signing of the registry, and the walk-out. They will often play at the drinks reception too. For other events, such as corporate events or birthday parties, a string quartet is the perfect accompaniment to a cocktail/canapes hour, providing a beautiful ambience for the guests as they arrive.
A string quartet is slightly out of my budget - what should I do?
Not to worry! If you still want that magic string quartet sound on a budget, you could hire a string trio.
