Reviews of Wedding Ceremony Musicians based near Rethymno

5/5 from 19 reviews
Photo of String Duo Lefka Ori 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." Based in Chaniá, Crete (27 miles from Rethymno) 16th September 2026 Rebecca Knight - Private Wedding Photo of Orestis Violinist Orestis Violinist "I couldn’t recommend Orestis highly enough! After another musician unexpectedly cancelled just a few days before my planned marriage proposal, I found Orestis at very short notice – and looking back, I honestly couldn’t have wished for anyone better to accompany such an important moment in our lives. I had planned to propose to my girlfriend on Falassarna Beach at sunset, and everything needed to remain a complete surprise. From our very first conversation, communication with Orestis was excellent. Despite the short notice, he took the time to discuss every detail with me, helped coordinate the timing, and made sure everything would happen exactly as I had imagined. I was able to choose the songs in advance and we carefully planned when he should start playing so that my girlfriend wouldn’t suspect anything. He even has his own portable sound system that does not require a power connection, which made it possible to have beautiful live music directly on the beach. And then came the most important part: Orestis played the violin absolutely beautifully. Hearing Can’t Help Falling in Love while asking the woman I love to marry me, with the sun setting over Falassarna, was a moment neither my fiancée nor I will ever forget. ❤️ Everything was perfect – the music, the timing, the atmosphere and the coordination. My fiancée absolutely loved it, and our entire family was equally impressed. Apart from being an excellent musician, Orestis is also an incredibly kind, warm and genuine person. It was truly a pleasure having him there, and I am very grateful that he became part of such a special moment in our lives. Thank you so much, Orestis, for helping make our engagement unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful experience and would recommend you without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional musician for a proposal, wedding or any other special occasion. Petro & Michelle ❤️🎻" Based in Chaniá, Crete (27 miles from Rethymno) 7th September 2026 Petro - Marriage Proposal Photo of Elena Violinist Elena Violinist "Elena gave a fantastic performance! Our guests absolutely loved the music, the presence so beautifully dressed and the repertoire! Extremely professional with a really elegant touch, absolutely amazing!" Based in Chaniá, Crete (27 miles from Rethymno) 12th August 2026 Steven & Samuel - vow renewal Photo of Rinia Evi & Giorgos Papazoglou Rinia Evi & Giorgos Papazoglou "You are one of the most beautiful duets I have ever heard. With a guitar and a voice you created a beautiful atmosphere that we enjoyed every moment. With the fantastic rhythmic guitar and in combination with the excellent vocal performance you gave us a sweet and at the same time dynamic experience that touched our hearts and moved our bodies. Thank you very much!" Based in Chaniá, Crete (27 miles from Rethymno) 20th March 2026 Anna Maria - Live event Photo of Blue Reflections Blue Reflections "Blue Reflections brought a rare kind of presence to our event. Nothing felt forced or over-styled, the music flowed with a quiet confidence that immediately set the mood. It was the kind of performance that stays with you long after the last note, simply because it felt honest and beautifully played." Based in Chaniá, Crete (27 miles from Rethymno) 28th December 2025 Ioannis Katsivalis - Private event Photo of Jazz Elements Jazz Elements "Caught jazz elements in chania a few weeks ago I was blown away by the quality of the musicianship" Based in Chaniá, Crete (27 miles from Rethymno) 24th October 2025 Bert Morton

Frequently asked questions

Hiring wedding ceremony musicians typically costs between €130 and €1,200+, with an average of €400. The price depends on the type of musician, performance duration and whether the booking covers the ceremony alone or includes the drinks reception. Popular options include string quartets, harpists, solo vocalists, pianists and acoustic duos, and ensemble acts cost more than solo performers.

Some wedding ceremony musicians offer packages covering both the ceremony and the drinks reception or the wedding meal. Others specialise in ceremony music only. It is a good idea to check each musician's profile for their available packages, or contact them to discuss a tailored arrangement.

Many wedding ceremony musicians are happy to perform outdoors, though this should be confirmed with the musician in advance. Outdoor performances may be affected by wind, rain or temperature, which can impact acoustic instruments. Providing a covered or sheltered area for the musicians and their equipment is strongly recommended.

The most popular choices for wedding ceremonies include string quartets, harpists, pianists, classical guitarists, flute players and vocalists. The right choice depends on the venue and the atmosphere the couple wants to create.

Most wedding ceremony musicians perform for 30 minutes to one hour, covering the key moments such as the guest arrival, the processional, any signing of the register or documents, and the recessional.
