Stephan was simply excellent. Highly professional and with a great range of music to suit all generations attending our daughter and son-in-laws wedding celebration. It is not often you see all age groups on the dance floor, but Stephan ensured we all had a fabulous time. He provided some live music as well, which was a real treat; thank you Stephan 😀👍🏻. Also, he was very generous in allowing one of our family to take to the stage and sing the first dance song, providing vocal and acoustic support to raise the marquee roof.
We would not hesitate to ask Stephan to entertain us again: his contribution helped to make it a magical day, enjoyed by all.

Huge thanks to the Blue Topaz team, the event went very well and everyone loved the music!
I received the message below from a partner at the firm and thought I should share it with you:
I thought the party yesterday was one of the very best that Bristows has ever given. Impeccably organised from start to finish and a superb promotion of the firm to a large international audience. I had a lot of very positive comments from attendees about all aspects including venue, food and drink, music, flowers and our friendly welcoming and efficient staff. We have raised the bar of Bristows parties yet again.
I’m sure I will be in touch about further events so until then, thank you so much for creating a lovely atmosphere and your professionalism in the lead up and during the event!

Very pleased we went with Bristol string quartet for our wedding day. Very skilled musicians and the arrangements and song choices were spot on. Really added to our day and made it perfect. Can’t recommend them enough, if you at looking for strings for your event get in touch with them.

String Quartet Hire in Liverpool: A Smart, Stylish Choice
Liverpool knows how to put on a show. From waterfront receptions to heritage celebrations, a string quartet adds instant polish without hogging the spotlight. Four musicians, a compact set-up, and the room suddenly feels curated. If you want romance for a wedding, culture for an opening, or charm for an anniversary dinner, strings do the job beautifully.
When Strings Elevate Liverpool Events
Quartets fit the city’s big moments and intimate gatherings alike:
- Weddings that want a graceful aisle walk and a beaming recessional
- Waterfront receptions where conversation flows and the skyline does the rest
- Arts and culture openings that call for refinement with personality
- Anniversary dinners that feel grown up yet warm
- Heritage celebrations that nod to the city’s story without going stuffy
Spaces Where Quartets Shine
- Waterfront hotels Great for drinks hours and elegant pre-dinner sets. If the room is expansive, ask about a small PA so every table catches the detail.
- Historic buildings High ceilings and wood paneling flatter acoustic strings. Plan short sets around speeches for a smooth flow.
- Galleries Clean acoustics, plenty of poise. Curate pieces to echo the exhibition theme.
- City churches Ideal for ceremonies and photo time after the confetti. Share the order of service and aisle length for crisp cues.
- Private dining rooms Perfect for smaller guest lists. Consider a trio if space is snug.
Choose Your Musical Direction
Liverpool quartets are endlessly adaptable. Popular flavours include:
- Beatles and Merseybeat tributes in string form for a subtle hometown salute
- Romantic classics for ceremonies and slow moments
- Film music for cinematic entrances and reveals
- Vintage inspired sets for nostalgia with a wink
A balanced running order starts soft while guests arrive, adds a few recognisable film themes as the energy rises, then leans into Beatles and Merseybeat arrangements or other favourites for the buzz of the reception.
What It Costs
Typical pricing for a string quartet in Liverpool sits between £500 and £950. Your fee will depend on:
- Total performance time and number of sets
- Peak dates and any early arrivals for sound checks
- Bespoke arrangements of special songs
- Light amplification for large or open rooms
- Line up flexibility, for example trimming to a trio for tight corners
Money saver tip: decide your must play moments early and group sets around them, so you get maximum music within the time you book.
Plan It Like A Pro
- Map the moments Note the cues that matter most. Aisle walk, signing, photos, drinks, dinner, speeches.
- Pick the palette Choose one central theme, then add two or three personal favourites.
- Sort the footprint About 2 m by 3 m, four armless chairs, decent light. Outdoors needs shade, level ground, and a practical Plan B.
- Acoustic or amplified Most churches and historic rooms work acoustically. For airy ballrooms or waterfront spaces, a compact PA improves clarity.
- Share timings early Allow 30 minutes for set up and tuning, plus short breaks between sets. Send the running order to players and venue.
- Dress code Smart black or formal evening wear is standard. If you have a theme, say so.
- Add a custom touch A string version of your first dance, or a mini set of Liverpool favourites for the reception.
Ceremony Music That Lands Perfectly
- Processional A steady, lyrical piece that fits your walking pace.
- Signing Two or three gentle tracks that sit under photos and greetings.
- Recessional Something bright and confident to spark applause and set the tone for the celebrations.
If you share aisle length and average pace, the quartet can time entries and endings so nothing feels rushed or clipped.
Reception Sets That Glide
Think in arcs rather than strict genres:
- Arrival Romantic classics and light vintage textures while guests settle.
- Pre dinner lift A couple of film themes and a tasteful nod to Merseybeat to raise the mood.
- After dessert Familiar pop on strings and more hometown tributes to keep the chatter lively.
If speeches pop up, the players pause, reset, and carry on without fuss.
Liverpool Logistics, Simplified
- Access and parking Waterfront venues and historic buildings can have specific load in routes. Share details early.
- Sound policies Galleries and heritage sites may set volume limits. Quartets work comfortably within those rules.
- Weather plan Instruments dislike rain and direct sun. Terraces need shade, cover, and a back up room.
- Power Only needed if you choose light amplification.
- Insurance Professional quartets carry public liability cover. Certificates available if your venue asks.
