String Quartets in Coventry

Hire a string quartet in Coventry

For a traditional ceremony with a touch of grandeur, it's hard to beat live strings. In Coventry, quartets and smaller string ensembles are booked for the aisle, the signing and the drinks reception afterwards.

Across Coventry, string quartets and ensembles are booked for weddings and events in and around Coventry, Kenilworth and Nuneaton. Venues in the area include Wethele Manor, Wootton Park and Bourton Hall, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. Other venues in the area include Cheylesmore Manor House, Coombe Abbey Hotel and Alderson House, and each has its own venue page further down.

String ensembles play both traditional classical repertoire and arrangements of pop, rock and film music, so guests might hear Pachelbel's Canon during the ceremony and a string version of a chart hit over the canapés.

Since 1999, Hireaband has matched couples with live entertainment for their wedding day. The string quartets and ensembles listed here all travel to Coventry, and the instant quote button shows pricing and availability in a few seconds.

The essentials:

• Typical cost: £500 to £1,500, depending on how long they perform and the date
• Your quote shows exactly what's included
• Ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast packages available from many acts
• Most couples book several months ahead, sooner for a summer Saturday
• Every booking carries a 14-day change-of-mind refund

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.

Rather than a generic demo, every act's page shows the performer you would be booking, with videos, audio, a repertoire list and reviews. Between them you can get a clear sense of the act well before the day.

The instant quote button gives you a price and availability for your date straight away. From there, we manage the contract and deposit and keep you updated until the day. Every booking is covered by a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and there's an emergency contact line on the day in case anything needs sorting.
