A guide to booking

Hire String Quartets in Italy

String quartets available for hire in Italy 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 Italy

Rates for string quartets in Italy currently range from about €150 to €1,500+, with most clients paying around €500. 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 TIBi Events Production - Music Planning TIBi Events Production - Music Planning "I can't thank TIBI Events enough for helping me plan the perfect proposal in Florence. From the first message, they were friendly, helpful, and always happy to answer my questions. What I really appreciated was their honesty and experience. Everything on the day was organised perfectly. The team worked together seamlessly, and it all felt relaxed and natural. Because of their hard work, I was able to focus on the moment and enjoy it with my now fiancée. The proposal was perfect, and the photos are beautiful. We will remember this day for the rest of our lives. If you are thinking about planning a proposal or special event in Florence, I highly recommend TIBI Events. Thank you again for making such an important day so special❤️" Based in Florence, Tuscany 23rd October 2026 Rohanvir Sangha Photo of Firenze Classica – String live Ensembles Firenze Classica – String live Ensembles "“We had a location in the countryside outside Florence, and we got the food from buonatavola (aperitivo and dinner) and the music from firenzeclassica. Firenze classica was really fantastic, we had a string quartet and, if you ask them in advance, they also play any modern song you request. Of course, if you give them time to rehearse. They both did an incredible job without emptying our bank account.” Source: Reddit – user ja_maz Date: 13 May 2025 Location: Countryside outside Florence, Tuscany, Italy" Translated from Italian Based in Florence, Tuscany 19th October 2026 Ja_maz 13.05.2025 - Wedding in Tuscany Photo of Matteo Cristofori Matteo Cristofori "Working with Matteo was an outstanding experience. He is an exceptionally talented musician, with a refined and distinctive musical personality. His performance was expressive and engaging, and he brought a high level of professionalism and preparation to the entire project.
