Choosing live music for your ceremony entertainment guarantees an elegant start to your big day. Plus, it makes for an especially memorable (and melodic!) walk down the aisle. While any live music is a great choice, we’re particularly fond of a string quartet, typically made up of two violin players, a cellist, and a viola player. Guests will be wowed by this beautiful arrangement, and you’ll have an ultra-romantic and timeless soundtrack for one of the happiest moments of your life. If all of that doesn’t have you convinced, see what these three wedding planners have to say about how the sweet sounds of string instruments can instantly upgrade your nuptials.
Nothing says “elegant” quite like a quartet.
“Combined with beautiful flowers and the perfect lighting accents, an instant air of excitement permeates the space and anticipation builds,” says wedding planner Tonia Adleta of Aribella Events. “A string quartet provides just that foundation, maintaining a traditional elegance and providing a wide range of versatility. The repertoire that a well-versed string quartet can perform may be reason alone to consider them as the front runner of your ceremony music.”
