Do you dream of walking down the aisle to the sonorous strains of a string quartet?During our 17 years in Port Huron, School for Strings ensembles have assisted a great number of brides in having the beautiful weddings of their hearts’ desires. We have played music for weddings in many churches of several denominations. We have also performed for weddings in private homes, banquet halls, back yards, public parks and on beaches in and around Port Huron. With our many years of experience, we assure you our wedding ensembles can make the music for your wedding free of worries and hassles.

For a typical wedding service, we play approximately 30 minutes of music as guests arrive, a processional for the wedding party with possibly special music for the bride herself, a recessional for the wedding party and music for guests as they leave. We can provide special pieces for seating of the bride’s and the groom’s Mothers. Some weddings call for additional music during candle lighting, sands blending or meditation. We will work to provide you with any special pieces for your wedding. Brides may engage us to perform during the reception. Part, or all, of our ensemble can attend any rehearsal as needed (incurs an additional fee).

Some brides request a solo cello or violin but most ask for a trio or quartet. Any of our ensembles can perform with your chosen organist or singer.

School for Strings Quartet and Trios have ready the standard wedding music but have honored many requests for special music. For one bride’s dream, we provided both wedding and reception music of entirely Celtic pieces. We attempt to play anything the bride requests though we need enough lead time to locate pieces not already in our repertoire. When sheet music is not available, we would have to arrange it ourselves. These requests come with an extra fee depending on the cost of the music and the time we need to prepare it. We may need to charge a travel fee if the wedding happens outside of Port Huron. We do make every effort to provide the music of your heart's desire for your special wedding
Please fill out and submit the Wedding Request including the date, time and location for your wedding along with a phone number where we can reach you. We will check to see that we are available for your day. Then we will send you a wedding contract on which you list the details and any special requests. |
