Your wedding day...

Your wedding day is as special to you as it is to us and we strive to make it as magical for you as possible.  We provide music for your wedding ceremony, drinks reception, wedding breakfast, or all three.  Once you book us for your wedding we will play for as long or as little as you want.  We will make sure that you have the perfect musical accompaniment throughout the day and will time your entrance and exit music perfectly having impeccable judgment during ceremonies so that you don't have to worry about the details on the day. 

F
rom 30 minutes prior to your wedding ceremony we will create the perfect atmosphere.   As your guests arrive the string quartet will be a feature of the venue, and light classical music can give the occasion the right sense of luxury and grandeur. We will bring our performance to a close a few minutes before the ceremony begins, with the cue taken from the registrar for your guests to fall silent, in anticipation of the arrival of the Bridal party.  We will then play for the entrance of the Bride and Bridal party with your chosen music and we will time the music perfectly to the Bride's arrival at the front of the room.

During the signing of the registers you have the choice of using the Quartet as a feature, to entertain your guests whilst you are having photographs taken, or as a reflective musical backdrop.  Either way, we can help you to choose the perfect music, timed to draw to a close just as you are preparing to leave the ceremony.  
As you exit the room we will play your chosen music just as soon as you begin your walk down the aisle continuing until all of your guests have left and the ceremony has drawn to a happy close.  This will also allow the music to be heard for some distance outside the room, and blend the atmosphere of the ceremony with that of your reception outside.

Here is an example of our most popular wedding ceremony choices. It is mostly classical music, however, you are not limited to these and can choose your favourite pop songs to walk down the isle if you would like.
