String Quartets in Middlesbrough

String quartets and classical ensembles in Middlesbrough

There's nothing quite like live strings for the walk down the aisle. Across Middlesbrough, 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.

Whether your wedding is near Middlesbrough and Stockton-on-Tees or further afield, the string quartets and ensembles here cover the whole of Middlesbrough. Local venues include Acklam Hall, Judges Country House Hotel and Solberge Hall, and it's worth checking with your venue where the music or entertainment will be set up. Further down this page are more local venues, such as Crathorne Hall, Gisborough Hall and Middlesbrough Town Hall, with details of each.

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.

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.

Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the wedding. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.
