How much does it cost to hire Violinists / Fiddlers in Perth?

£Low price
from£120GBP
££Average price
from£340GBP
£££High price
from£850GBP

Rates for violin players in Perth 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.

Photo of The Quartet The Quartet "We just got married on Saturday and had the string duo play. The music was so beautifully played it really helped make the day so so special. Morag was lovely to deal with and even played some Harry Potter and game of thrones theme tune to get a little of our personalities into the ceremony. I would highly recommended anyone thinking of booking them ❤️ – Michelle McGuigan (Bride), The Corinthian Club, Glasgow, 6th October 2018." Based in Falkirk, Scotland (30 miles from Perth) Michelle McGuigan - Wedding Ceremony & Reception Photo of Scotia Strings Scotia Strings "Just a note to say 'thank you' for Scotia String's performance which my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed and which many of our guests commented favourably on. As we discussed when booking, this is the second time you have provided music for us, the previous time around four years ago at The Gleneagles Hotel for our 40th Wedding Anniversary. With our very best wishes to you and your fellow musicians." Based in Edinburgh, Scotland (32 miles from Perth) Andrew Watson - House Party Photo of Mary Gristwood Mary Gristwood "The Rock Ceilidh Band did a two piece ceilidh for my husband's 40th and they were just excellent. It was a daytime party with a small crowd in a village hall, and everyone loved their music, their easy approach to getting us dancing and how engaging they were with us. Really fantastic band, so pleased we booked them!" Based in Bathgate, Scotland (35 miles from Perth) Regina Vereker - 40th Birthday Party Photo of Foot Stompin' Ceilidh Band Foot Stompin' Ceilidh Band "The band were wonderful and so accommodating with our requests for the night which helped to make it just that little bit more special. So many of our guests commented on the fantastic music!" Based in Glasgow, Scotland (49 miles from Perth) Heather Kennedy Photo of Scarlett Strings - Violin + Singing 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." Based in Newcastle upon Tyne, England (121 miles from Perth) 26th February 2026 Katy V - Wedding Photo of Kate Violin 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." Based in Leeds, England (194 miles from Perth) Peter Mawer - Wedding
