String Trio
String Trio for Weddings and Events
Our string trio is a beautiful and flexible option for weddings and events, giving a fuller sound than a duo while remaining compact and elegant. It is ideal for ceremonies, drinks receptions, wedding breakfasts and corporate events.
About this ensemble
The string trio usually features violin, viola and cello, creating a balanced and warm sound that works beautifully in both intimate and larger settings. It is a great choice if you want the elegance of live strings with a slightly lighter setup than a full quartet.
Best for:
Wedding ceremonies
Guest arrival music
Drinks receptions
Wedding breakfasts
Smaller venues
Corporate events
Dinner music
Private parties
Repertoire ideas:
Classical music, modern pop, film and TV themes, Bridgerton-style arrangements, Bollywood songs, Jewish music, jazz standards and bespoke requests where suitable music is available.
Practical information:
A string trio usually needs around 2 x 2 metres of space, three armless chairs and a dry, shaded area for outdoor performances. Amplification can be discussed for larger events.
