String Quartets in Sheffield & South Yorkshire

String quartets and classical ensembles in Sheffield & South Yorkshire

There's nothing quite like live strings for the walk down the aisle. Across Sheffield & South Yorkshire, 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.

Sheffield & South Yorkshire has a wide choice of wedding venues, from Whirlowbrook Hall and Wortley Hall to Hooton Pagnell Hall. Our string quartets and ensembles travel to towns across the area, including Sheffield and Doncaster, so the location of your venue won't limit your choice. You'll find more Sheffield & South Yorkshire venues below, including Tankersley Manor, Cutlers' Hall, Sheffield and Sheffield Town Hall, each with its own page.

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.

Hireaband has booked wedding entertainment since 1999. Each string quartet on this page travels to Sheffield & South Yorkshire as standard, and the instant quote button shows prices and availability for your date without waiting for a reply.

The essentials:

• Prices usually from £500 up to £1,500
• Many acts can cover more than one part of the day in a single booking
• Summer Saturdays book up first, so it pays to enquire early
• The quote you receive sets out exactly what's included
• 14-day change-of-mind refund on every booking

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.

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.

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.
