Rates for violin players in Rethymno begin at about €140 for a single short set, with most quotes coming in near €400 and experienced electric acts carrying their own sound equipment reaching €1,000+. Set length drives the figure more than anything else, followed by whether the performance is acoustic or electric and how far the player travels. Learning a specific piece for a processional or first dance usually adds a small fee, and covering a ceremony and an evening reception together costs more than a single set. Ask for a written quote that states set length, arrival time and the rate if the schedule overruns. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.

"We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful musical accompaniment to our wedding ceremony!
The sound of his violin was absolutely magical and made every moment feel like a scene from a movie. He created such a romantic and emotional atmosphere, making our special day even more unforgettable.
A truly talented violinist and a wonderful professional!
Thank you for making our wedding feel like a fairytale!"
String Duo Lefka Ori
"Absolutely incredible from start to finish! They created such a beautiful atmosphere for our wedding ceremony and truly brought my vision and ideas to life. It had always been a dream of mine to walk down the aisle to a live string rendition of our song, and they made that moment even more special than I imagined.
You guys deserve all the credit for creating such a memorable part of our day. We couldn’t have been happier and would recommend you without hesitation. Wishing you both all the best, and thank you again for being part of such a special day."

We recommend Dimitris highly, 10/10"
Modal Duet
"We had these amazing guys, Manos, Danai, Charis and Vasilis with his amazing vocal performance.
Manos held all the communication with me Melbourne - Athens and made for me the song listings. They performed for 3 hours, Greek folk music as we as international repertoire for our party.
I highly, highly recommend them because they love what they do and we felt they enjoyed it as much as we did.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts"
