Strings For Weddings & Events

STRINGS SETS THE TONE
When your guests arrive to the venue, remember the first music they will hear is the strings group, and the strings ensemble sets the tone. Most of our clients pick either a String Quartet or String Trio, depending on the guest count and budget.

AMPLIFICATION
Outdoor events will benefit by having the string ensemble be amplified. If it’s windy or the event takes place in a large field, like Middleton Place or Magnolia Plantation as a couple of examples, then having the group amplified will make sure guests can hear everything.

ADDING TRUMPET, HARP, GUITAR, PIANO or VOCAL
With large gatherings with over 150+ people, we highly recommend the Quartet to bring out the most sound. 100 or so, a Trio is sufficient. Duo or a soloist are nice choices for small, intimate gatherings around 50 guests or less. Add a trumpet, harp, piano, classical guitar, or vocalist to the strings group for something more unique that makes a lasting

VIDEOS

STRING QUARTET

The String Quartet is what you see in movies, TV Shows, and is the standard for weddings with guests of 150+. Rich melody on the violin, two harmony instruments on violin + viola and bass part played by the cello is the standard for a complete sound.

---

STRING TRIO

The Trio has almost the same sound as the Quartet, just one less harmony instrument. Our arrangements work with both Trio and Quartet. Typically with Violin, Viola + Cello (or sometimes 2 violins and cello), the Trio is a nice choice for a full sound on a slightly lower budget.

VIOLIN + CELLO DUO

The Violin + Cello Duo is nice for smaller weddings. No harmony, but you have the melody played by the violin and bass part played by the cello and is the minimum we recommend for events. Check out the Guitar + Violin Duo as another option too!

SOLO VIOLIN – MIKE W + INSTRUMENTAL TRACKS

As Mike W performs on his own, he is backed up with instrumental tracks so you get that mix of recorded + live entertainment through a full PA System. Mike specializes turning up the beat, groove and volume for cocktail and dinner receptions – we’ve definitely seen some dancing from the crowd with Mike’s setlist that is a nice contrast to the more mellow sound a traditional strings ensemble provides.

SOLO CELLO

When a cello plays the melody compared to a violin, the sound typically carries a deeper, richer quality. The cello’s lower register lends a warm and resonant tone to the melody, often adding a sense of depth and gravitas to the music.
