Violinists for hire in Hereford
Latest reviews of our Violinists in Hereford
"Annie recently played at our wedding during our ceremony and she was absolutely amazing! She created a mashup of Taylor Swift songs for me and my bridesmaids to walk down the aisle to and it was beautiful, it was better than I could have imagined. Annie shared the backing track of the procession before hand which was a great help for us to practice our timings. So many of our guests commented on how amazing Annie’s playing was and I’m so happy to have found her. If you’re looking for a violinist to play at your wedding or event I would 100% recommend Annie! Thank you again Annie for making our day feel extra magical!"

FAQs about hiring Violinists in Hereford
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
How much do violinists charge for weddings?
Most wedding violinists charge between £250 and £500, depending on experience, location, and how long they’re performing. Prices usually cover the ceremony and can increase if you’d like music during the drinks reception or wedding breakfast. On Encore Musicians, you can compare verified violinists, view prices upfront, and book securely for your wedding day.
Are violins popular for weddings?
Yes, absolutely, particularly for smaller, more intimate weddings, one violinist can be enough. A solo violinist can create a beautiful, elegant atmosphere that is loud enough to be heard by everyone without drowning out conversation. However, for larger weddings, you might want to opt for a string quartet or a string duo instead for a fuller sound. If unsure, chat with one of our experts today who talk through your budget, venue and tastes to work out what would work best for you.
Is one violin enough for a wedding?
Yes, violinists are very popular for weddings. Traditional, acoustic violinists are great for wedding ceremonies, evening meals and wedding breakfasts, whereas electric violinists are popular for drinks receptions as they have a louder sound.
Which songs sound best on the violin?
The violin is often associated with classical music, but it's a versatile instrument that can work well with many genres. If you're a fan of classical music, you might enjoy listening to Pachelbel's Canon in D, Beethoven's "Spring" Sonata, or Tchaikovsky's "Melodie". For those who prefer modern music, songs like Adele's "Someone Like You", Ed Sheeran's "Perfect", or Bruno Mars' "Just the Way You Are" sound great on the violin. If you browse through our musicians’ profiles, you’ll be able to find videos of their live performances and their song lists to get an idea of their sound. It's worth mentioning, however, that our violinists are skilled professionals who are committed to making sure you have a great night and are more than willing to take requests if you can’t find your favourite song on their profile.
Which is better violin or electric violin?
Choosing between a traditional acoustic violin and an electric violin depends on factors like venue size, acoustics, and budget. Acoustic violins produce a warm sound but may not project well in larger spaces. Electric violins can amplify sound and offer digital effects, but some argue they lack natural expression. Ultimately, what works best will depend on your preferences and many of our violinists own both acoustic and electric so browse our collection of violinists today to see what might work best for you.
