String Quartets in Lancaster

String quartets and classical ensembles in Lancaster

There's nothing quite like live strings for the walk down the aisle. Across Lancaster, string quartets, trios and duos play ceremonies, drinks receptions and dinners, and most can play acoustically in a church or ceremony room without any amplification.

Lancaster has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Forrest Hills and The Borough to Wennington Hall. Our string quartets and ensembles travel to towns across the area, including Lancaster, Morecambe and Carnforth, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Lancaster Castle, The Storey and Town Head Estate, 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.

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

The essentials:

• Budget from around £500 to £1,500, depending on the act and the date
• Book for the ceremony only, or for the ceremony, drinks and wedding breakfast
• Popular dates go months in advance
• Everything included is listed in your quote
• Change your mind within 14 days and get a full refund

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.

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.

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.
