Before you hire a String Quartet for your wedding or charity event, it is wise to consider the characteristics of the wedding venue that they will be asked playing in. A String Quartet comprises two violins, viola and a cello. They are totally acoustic instruments, i.e. they don't use any amplification. This puts a limit to how much volume the musicians can achieve.

Whether a string quartet can be heard clearly is very much down to the acoustics of the Venue that they are performing in. That is why the following pages give information about potential wedding, party and corporate venues in the different counties of England Scotland and Wales.

Thinking in terms of hotels, wedding venues and the like, older properties are usually good for live musical performances from a String Quartet. Materials for buildings tend to be hard and reflective of sound. Ceilings tend to be higher than in modern buildings, allowing the sound to reflect off the ceiling and back down to the ears of the wedding guests.

String quartets can be heard well in a vast venues such as the Pump Rooms in Bath, but may be harder to hear in a small modern hotel room with acoustic tiles on the ceiling and deep pile carpet on the floor.

The significance of this is that it is wise to give some thought to the wedding venue the church or civil ceremony venue you are choosing and the room in which the musical be played. Some wedding venues have an original old building, which is often used for civil ceremonies ( which gives a good acoustic for the string quartet you have hired) with a modern part tacked on the back, some rooms of which will be excellent for the string quartet whilst other rooms may be less than ideal. If you have a choice, always choose the room with the best acoustics.

Churches are almost always excellent for string quartets. Most are Victorian or earlier, built of stone which is good for reflecting sound, and invariably extremely tall. Even modern churches tend to be tall structures with hard ceiling and uncarpeted floors. Registry office weddings are also normally in rooms that are acoustically good, often being in older buildings.

So always hire a String Quartet for your wedding in conjunction with hiring the wedding reception venue and considering the location for the ceremony itself.
