Wedding Music
 

Are you having a wedding in Victoria and would like to hire a string quartet for your ceremony? We can also arrange for a trio, duo or fiddle music if you prefer something a little less formal.

Here’s a brief summary of what we provide:

Prelude
We begin playing about 20 minutes prior to the ceremony, setting the stage as guests arrive. Unless you have specific requests, we play appropriate selections from our repertoire.
 
Processional
Music announces the arrival of the bride and bridal party.
 
Signing the Register
Signing the register may take some time. If the signing occurs during the ceremony, you may want to have one or two selections of music played.
 
Recessional
Joyous music as the bride and groom recede down the isle.
 
Postlude
Immediately following the recessional, music accompanies the guests as they congratulate the bride and groom.
