String Quartets in Hertfordshire

Hire a string quartet in Hertfordshire

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

Across Hertfordshire, string quartets and ensembles are booked for weddings and events in and around St Albans, Watford and Hertford. Venues in the area include North Hill Farm, The Old Palace at Hatfield House and Dyrham Park Country Club, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Micklefield Hall, Pendley Manor Hotel and Fanhams Hall Hotel, with details of each.

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.

Most string quartet bookings fall between £500 and £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. The date and time of year make up the rest of the difference, so a weekday or winter date can cost less than a summer Saturday.

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.
