String Quartets in Hampshire
String quartets and classical ensembles in Hampshire
For a traditional ceremony with a touch of grandeur, it's hard to beat live strings. In Hampshire, quartets and smaller string ensembles are booked for the aisle, the signing and the drinks reception afterwards.
Hampshire has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Stansted Park and Lainston House to Clock Barn. Our string quartets and ensembles travel to towns across the area, including Winchester, Southampton and Basingstoke, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. The Elvetham, Tithe Barn and Hayling Island Sailing Club are among the other Hampshire venues listed further down, each with its own page.
Most string ensembles have a large library of arrangements, from classical favourites to modern songs reworked for strings. That makes it easy to choose music that feels personal to you as well as traditional.

String instruments are sensitive to heat, cold and damp, so an outdoor ceremony needs shade and a covered spot nearby. Tell us the venue and the timings, and the ensemble will plan where to set up for the ceremony and drinks reception.
Prices usually start from around £500 and go up to £1,500 or so. 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. Your quote shows the full price for your date, so you can compare acts on the same basis.
Each act's page carries real video and audio, a repertoire list and reviews from previous clients. Watching a couple of clips tells you far more than any description can, so it's worth listening before you choose.
Use the instant quote button on this page to see prices and availability for your date. Once you've chosen an act, we handle the contract, the deposit and the arrangements, and stay in touch through to the day. Every booking includes a 14-day change-of-mind refund, and an emergency contact line is available on the day if anything needs sorting quickly.
