Photo of Enchanted Cello by Dawei Tan Enchanted Cello by Dawei Tan "Dawei and his partner played beautiful pieces of music on the day of our wedding. I will always remember that moving moment when I entered the church with Pachelbel's Canon played by this talented violinist resonating. It was an exceptionally hot day, but the melodious pieces brought us a bit of freshness and poetry. "Kind, humble, talented, respectful, serious, attentive... I am fully satisfied with his work and his performance. I strongly recommend this cellist!" Translated from French Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region (126 miles from Tours) 5th August 2026 Jessica - Destination Wedding Photo of Bohdana HORECKA Bohdana HORECKA "Bohdana and the quartet were as flexible as they are talented. Our bride and groom had a very specific list of musical pieces they wanted performed, and Bohdana and her fellow musicians were accommodating and easy to communicate with. Most importantly, their performance was outstanding and deeply moving, and made a special day even more memorable!"

Antony was incredible from start to finish. His communication was clear and concise which made him really easy to deal with. He played incredibly non stop in 40 degree heat and even stayed on to do an extra 20 minutes. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you Antony!"

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring cellists is €470, with prices from €200 to €1,050+. Rates depend on the cellist's experience, performance duration and the style of music required. A solo cello performance can provide elegant background music for ceremonies, dinners and receptions.

Ceremony bookings usually split into arrival music, the processional, something during the signing and the recessional, with the couple choosing at least the processional. Drinks receptions are more relaxed and the choice is often left to the player. Fixing the set points and leaving the rest open is the usual arrangement, and it keeps the planning short.

Most cellists need very little setup: just a chair without arms and enough space to perform comfortably. For larger venues, a microphone or small amplification system may be useful. It is a good idea to confirm any technical needs with the cellist before the event.

Hiring cellists is popular for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate events, private dinners and classical concerts. The cello's rich, warm tone creates an elegant atmosphere and works well as both solo background music and as part of a string ensemble.

Most players will take a small number of requests, and a piece written for another instrument can usually be arranged for solo cello. Popular songs work well on the instrument, though a dense arrangement may lose detail when reduced to a single line. Sending the list several weeks ahead leaves time to source or write the arrangement.

Most players list a travel radius on their profile and will go beyond it for a fee covering time and transport. A cello takes up a seat or a boot, so travel is usually by car rather than public transport, which shapes how far is practical. Raising distance early is worth doing, as it affects both the fee and the arrival time the player can commit to.

Many cellists have a versatile repertoire that extends beyond classical music to include popular songs, film scores, jazz and contemporary arrangements. Some cellists use loop pedals and effects to create a fuller, more modern sound. It is worth checking each performer's profile for their repertoire.
