Wedding String Quartets for hire in Rotherham
Latest reviews of our Wedding String Quartets in Rotherham
"If you're looking for a string quartet for your wedding or special event look no further. Highly Strung made our wedding a truly wonderful occasion. We requested Woman by Mumford and Sons for my wife to walk down the aisle to and their arrangement was so beautiful there was hardly a dry eye in the house (especially mine). Apart from a couple of other classical pieces we requested for signing the registrar, we gave Highly Strung carte blanche to play a selection of classical and contemporary pieces and their set choices did not disappoint. The musicians themselves were very approachable and even enjoyed a laugh with my bride and I. Absolutely phenomenal quartet who we cannot thank enough and recommend more highly. Thank you so much for making our wedding day that bit more magical. Les and Karla."

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.
