String Quartets in Cornwall
String quartets and classical ensembles in Cornwall
A string quartet brings a sense of occasion to a wedding ceremony that few other acts can match. In Cornwall, quartets and smaller string ensembles are booked for ceremonies, drinks receptions and wedding breakfasts, playing classical pieces alongside string arrangements of modern songs.
Whether your wedding is near Truro, Falmouth and Newquay or further afield, the string quartets and ensembles here cover the whole of Cornwall. Local venues include Boconnoc House, Eden Project and Tregenna Castle Resort, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up. Other venues in the area include Launcells Barton, Lusty Glaze and Nancarrow Farm, and each has its own venue page further down.
Live strings give a ceremony real presence. A quartet of two violins, viola and cello fills a church or ceremony room without any amplification, and the same ensemble can move on to the drinks reception afterwards.

A full quartet, with two violins, viola and cello, gives the richest sound and suits a large ceremony room or church. A trio or duo is a good choice for a smaller room or a tighter budget, and still sounds elegant for a drinks reception.
Expect to pay from around £500 up to £1,500. A duo for the ceremony sits at the lower end, while a full quartet covering the ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast sits towards the upper end. Busy Saturdays in summer and December sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.
Every act's page has video and audio of the performer you would actually book, along with their repertoire and written reviews from couples who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.
