Photo of Artume String Quartet Artume String Quartet "I just wanted to thank you for Saturday. Everyone I’ve spoken to said you were amazing." Based in Birmingham, England Rob and Amy Rhead Photo of Signature String Quartet Signature String Quartet "Thank you so much to Signature Strings Quartet for playing at our wedding in May. Our guests are still commenting on how great you were and you even played some requests during the drinks reception. Communication has been great throughout and I would recommend you to anyone looking for a Quartet!!" Based in Birmingham, England Louise Photo of Fortune Strings Fortune Strings "We had the pleasure of having Fortune Strings play at our wedding yesterday at Newton House Barns, they are seriously talented musicians and so professional to deal with. We chose a modern selection of music for the aisle walk etc and then left the rest to Sarah & co for the drinks reception, all I can say is WOW just fantastic, we really cannot recommend highly enough." Based in Lichfield, England (14 miles from Birmingham) Hayley and Phil - Private Wedding Photo of Sophistication Strings Sophistication Strings "All of our guests commented on how the music added the perfect ambience to our special day. Thank you, Sophistication Strings, for your beautiful playing." Based in Kidderminster, England (16 miles from Birmingham) Margaret C - Party Photo of Rebecca Rose Cellist Rebecca Rose Cellist "We booked Rebecca for our wedding and she was absolutely incredible from start to finish. She was so friendly, easy to talk to, and kept in regular contact in the lead-up to the day, which really put us at ease. Her song list was fantastic, with so many beautiful choices — but what meant the most to us was that she learned my walk-in song especially for the reception. It was such a magical moment and truly added something unforgettable to our day. Her performance was stunning, and so many of our guests commented on how talented she is. We couldn’t recommend her highly enough. If you’re thinking about booking her, do it — she helped make our wedding perfect." Based in Stourport-on-Severn, England (19 miles from Birmingham) 16th November 2025 Afeera Aslam - Wedding Photo of Scherzando Strings Scherzando Strings "Excellent communication prior to the wedding and helped us to choose our music. Very punctual on the day and they played our music so beautifully. Having the quintet added fantastic live music to the occasion. I would wholeheartedly recommend these musicians to anyone wanting live music. Read less" Based in Telford, England (27 miles from Birmingham) Vivienne Griffin - Wedding

Frequently asked questions

The average price for string quartets on Gig Heaven is £400, with rates from £120 to £1,000+. Cost depends on the musicians' experience, performance duration and the complexity of the repertoire. String quartets are a popular choice for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions and formal events, providing an elegant and refined atmosphere.

Hiring string quartets is one of the most popular choices for wedding ceremonies, drinks receptions, corporate events, gala dinners and formal occasions. The rich, elegant sound of a string quartet adds refinement and emotional depth to key moments.

Many string quartets offer arrangements of popular songs, film soundtracks, chart hits and well-known melodies alongside classical repertoire. This allows the music to appeal to a wider audience while maintaining the sophisticated sound of live strings. It is advisable to check each quartet's profile for their full repertoire.

Most string quartets need an area of approximately 3 by 3 metres for four seated musicians. They do not need a stage and can perform at floor level. For the best experience, confirm space and access requirements with the quartet, particularly for venues with stairs or limited access.
