Create an atmosphere of style and charm, whatever your function,
with the North-West's premier String Trio.

Weddings our speciality!

We are a group of experienced musicians who know just what you need to make your day just that little bit extra-special! We have an extensive repertoire of music, ranging from the baroque period onward. We produce a full, yet not over-powering, sound and are compact enough to fit almost anywhere. And it's all for less than the price of a string quartet!

Here are some of the instances of your day
when we can create just the right atmosphere for you:

At the Church

Arrival of congregation. Your guests can enter to the soothing strains of Mozart, Vivaldi, Bach or whatever you prefer, putting them immediately at their ease.

Entrance of the bride. Walk down the aisle to 'The Arrival of the Queen of Sheba' or 'Pachelbel's Canon' perhaps? We have plenty of suitable pieces to choose from.

Signing of the register. Allow your guests to relax and chat freely amongst themselves, drinking in the serene and joyful atmosphere.

Exit of the Bride and Groom. We have an abundance of pieces to set just the right tone and send the happy couple, hand-in-hand, on their way.

At the Reception

Welcoming of guests. Receive your friends and, now extended, family for a pre-wedding breakfast drink.

During the meal. Our large repertoire ensures that we can play continuously during your wedding breakfast, contributing a convivial atmosphere to the proceedings. We will endeavour to fulfil any requests that you or your guests may have but, in any case, will have something to please everyone. (Unless you're 'into' Heavy Metal!).

You can, of course, opt for any part or all of the above wedding package. We are happy to play just at the ceremony or just at the reception. Or both! It's up to you.

We also provide the same service for civil ceremonies of which we do a great number.
