With hundreds of weddings and a wealth of experience, Bridgewater String Quaret are widely recognised and very much sought after. 

The Wedding Ceremony

Our musicians can perform a selection of music for the arrival of your guests, the entrance of the bride, the signing of the register, and your exit together. For church weddings, we are also able to accompany the hymns if required.

The best thing about having live music at your wedding is the option to adjust the length of music to fit in with what is happening. This is particularly helpful for the bridal entry. You will be given the option of choosing the playlist prior to the wedding, or if you are having trouble deciding on your wedding music, we are happy to make recommendations.

Drinks Reception & Wedding Breakfast

The Bridgewater String Quartet or String Trio can also provide music for your drinks reception, wedding breakfast and evening entertainment where their extensive and varied repertoire list will help to create the perfect atmosphere and entertainment for your wedding guests.

Music

Instead of sheet music, we use Samsung Galaxy tablets. There are many advantages to them: they are neat and tidy, you and your guests can choose music with ease, there is minimal delay between pieces, they enable us to quickly relocate if needed, we don’t need lighting and most importantly we can easily add new music to our ever increasing repertoire.

Our String Quartet repertoire contains over 1,000 pieces from Bach to the Killers, and everything in between, making it one of the largest collections in Britain.

The Bridgewater String Quartet and Trio has something for everyone, and if your favourite song isn’t on our list, we can have it arranged for you.
