Photo of cello live cello live "It was a dream. He has a song specially that we wanted to have implemented perfectly without the notes. Everyone was excited in the church and had goose bumps. Thanks again. You completed our wedding perfectly.   The communication went smoothly.   With a lot of passion for the piece playing. He lives and loves the music." Based in Wuppertal, North Rhine-Westphalia (80 miles from Bielefeld) Julia Oberländer, Gladbeck, Germany - wedding Photo of Dana Cellist Dana Cellist "My wife was sending me all of Dana's videos on Instagram, I then wrote Dana and asked her to act like she is unavailable on our wedding day when my wife contacts her. She was kind enough to help me prepare the perfect surprise for my wife! She played "A thousand Years" during our slow dance, which is my wife's favorite song! she Loved it and so did everyone else! 100% recommended." Based in Hamburg (123 miles from Bielefeld) Kamal Photo of Skapa Skapa "I discovered SKAPA at another wedding and was immediately sold, so we knew we wanted them at our own wedding too.

Frequently asked questions

The average cost of hiring cellists is €480, with prices from €190 to €1,100+. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
