A guide to booking

Hire String Quartets in France

String quartets available for hire in France perform at weddings, corporate functions, private dinners and formal celebrations. A standard quartet features two violins, a viola and a cello, producing a rich, balanced sound that suits both intimate rooms and larger venues. Most groups offer a mix of classical works, modern pop and rock arrangements, film music and jazz standards, so you can tailor the repertoire to your event.

Booking a String Quartet

When hiring a classical quartet, expect performances in sets of 45 minutes to one hour with short breaks between. For weddings, many ensembles offer packages covering the ceremony and cocktail hour as a single booking. Quartets bring their own instruments and music stands, but will need a flat area of roughly three by two meters with armless chairs. Discuss any special song requests early, as custom arrangements need preparation time. Some groups near your venue also offer trio or duo configurations for smaller spaces or budgets.

String Quartet Costs in France

Rates for string quartets in France currently range from about €150 to €1,600+, with most clients paying around €480. Pricing reflects performance duration, travel distance to your venue, and whether you need custom arrangements of specific songs. Ceremony-only bookings cost less than packages that extend through drinks and dinner. Peak wedding season dates and weekend bookings may carry a premium.

Photo of Bohdana HORECKA Bohdana HORECKA "Bohdana is absolutely wonderful to work with! She is highly professional, communicates clearly and promptly, and is always proactive in sharing ideas and suggestions. We had a very unconventional marketing campaign, and she was open to the concept from the very beginning, embracing it with enthusiasm and creativity. She was incredibly supportive throughout the entire process, flexible, and always willing to explore new ideas. I have nothing but praise for her professionalism, creativity, and positive attitude. A huge thank you, Bohdana, for being part of our event and helping us bring this unusual idea to life." Based in Nogent-sur-Marne, Île-de-France Region 23rd October 2026 FLIP AI - Flip AI Photo of Hans professional violinist Hans professional violinist "Hans is not only an amazing Violinist, he is an amazing person and made every step of booking a Violinist in a different country for our wedding as easy as possible. From the first video call well before our wedding, to constantly making sure we were creating the perfect ceremony/cocktail/dinner playing experience I can not stress enough how quick his responses were and how much he actually cared about our special day. Hans quickly put together a professional contract for us so all the details were set in stone almost half a year before the wedding date! Hans was able to play ANY song that we requested as well as to play a very specific piece during my wife’s walk down the aisle - timing it perfect and effortlessly all by himself. Furthermore Hans actually also helped us out with other caterers and arranged his own transport to a very remote location. 10/10 experience working with Hans through the entire process" Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region 20th July 2026 Mikael Torpegaard - Wedding at Chateau Photo of Myriam Harpist Paris Myriam Harpist Paris "I cannot recommend Myriam enough, she was absolutely wonderful to work with! She traveled from Paris all the way to Normandy for our wedding and played every song we requested for our ceremony beautifully. She also curated a lovely selection of music throughout the rest of the evening that perfectly fit the atmosphere. She was incredibly warm and easygoing, even letting some of our guests and ourselves play her harp, which was such a special experience on our wedding day! When our timeline ran longer than expected, she graciously stayed and added extra time without hesitation. We truly appreciated her flexibility and kindness. She added so much magic to our wedding day, and we are so grateful to have had her there!" Based in Paris, Île-de-France Region 8th July 2026 Bree Rohrer - Château Wedding Photo of Quatuor Alienor Quatuor Alienor "The String Quartet were incredible at our Wedding. They performed for the ceremony and the drinks reception and our guests were amazed at the huge range of songs they performed! They were so easy to deal with in the lead up to the Wedding, taking our special requests for the ceremony music and creating an amazing playlist for the drinks reception. Thanks again to you all! Julien & Kerry 31/05/2025" Based in Bordeaux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine Julien & Kerry Photo of Karoliina Karoliina "Thank you so much for playing at our wedding! ❤️ The entrance performance for us, the bride and groom was absolutely incredible!"
