Rates for violin players in Harrogate begin at about £120 for a single short set, with most quotes coming in near £340 and experienced electric acts carrying their own sound equipment reaching £850+. 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.

Amore Twins Violin Duo
"Amoretwins duo so good. They made our night. Thank you girls. So happy that you shared that night with us."
Kate Violin
"Kate's pre event contactablity was excellent, her manner very pleasant, she was punctual, undemanding and very helpful and that was before she had even played a note. She performed to a mixed age audience and held us spell-bound by her variety of music which she had selected based upon a brief resume we sent her. The mix of modern, popular and classical music was both recognisable to most and certainly enjoyed by all. She is also such an unassuming young woman. From an audience of circa 200 we wish her every success in the entertainment industry. We will certainly invite her back in the future."

Lesley Locke Violinist
"Lesley was wonderful. Such a talented Violinist. No fuss, turned up early and set everything up very efficiently. The sounds quality was amazing.
It was a surprise for my grandparents and they loved it. She played their song for them, and my grandmother nearly missed it! When she arrived back Lesley kindly played it for them again so they could dance to it. It was a beautiful moment.
There was 11 of for the private dinner party. Every guest said that Lesley made the evening. I would highly recommend and would book again in a heart beat!"
Nell Violinist
"Nell played at our wedding ceremony and drinks reception and her playing really set the tone for the day. Beautiful classical music for our ceremony and more up beat music for our reception. We would highly recommend her!"
Scarlett Strings - Violin + Singing
"Scarlett was incredible! Everything about our experience was perfect from the communication to her performance. She learnt a new song for our aisle song and it was beautiful. All our guests loved the music during the ceremony and drinks reception. It was lovely to have a performance that was so elegant yet personal, I would recommend her to everyone."
