Nothing beats a string quartet

I have always wanted a string quartet to play at my wedding and they did not disappoint. Easy to do business with, affordable, talented and organized. They added class and elegance to the whole event. The coordinator they provided was in contact with the lead musician the whole time. She knew that I wanted to enter at a specific point in my processional music and she timed my entrance perfectly. All along I just shared my vision and they made it happen.

String quartet for ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner service

Bruce is the main contact for the string quartet - he was always prompt with emails and was kind enough to meet in person. The selection of music was fantastic. Ranging from classical to modern including top hits! They quartet played beautifully at the wedding and was wonderfully coordinated by a separate person to make sure everything was on time and exactly how we wanted it! Thank you Leigh Quartet!

Professional, easy to work with and beautiful performance!

We chose The Leith Quartet for our ceremony and we are so happy we did! We had a church ceremony, and they knew the order and requirements involved. They gave great suggestions for different points of the ceremony and were very accommodating for specific song requests. Everyone absolutely loved the music while waiting for the ceremony to begin! They paid close attention at rehearsal so everything went smoothly on the wedding day. They were very professional (including dressed in formal attire for the ceremony) and so easy to deal with, we would definitely recommend!

Unbelievably Excellent!!

The Leith Quartet was AMAZING!!! They were accommodating, easy to work with, professional, and extremely talented musicians. Our guests at our wedding raved about their performance for the rest of the evening (the quartet played before and during our ceremony). The highlight for me was there rendition of Kashmir by Led Zeppelin.
I enthusiastically endorse and recommend them as an excellent addition to anyone's wedding. We are already trying to figure out what event we could hire them again to play.

Excellent musicians, even better company.

Bruce and the Leith quartet added a magical atmosphere to our classy yet contemporary wedding. Our guests loved their music, as did we. They learned a custom song for us and played it beautifully. Most importantly, weddings are unpredictable. When a timing hitch popped up, the Leith quartet did not hesitate to stay an extra hour and even delay eating dinner. They truly are excellent service. Bruce and Cathy are also extremely organized and the kindest, most professional people. They are so on top of things that they were a true stress relief on the day of the wedding (and days leading to the wedding). I wish I could just hire them and sit there listening to them play regularly. 200% would recommend!

We were thrilled with the service and music provided by the Leith Quartet. Bruce and his wife Kathy, who acts as a coordinator for weddings, attended our rehearsal, made recommendations, took notes, and made sure everything was going to run smoothly. The quartet accompanied a friend singing before the ceremony, and did a wonderful job. They also prepared an arrangement of a piece that we wanted played, and it was excellent. We were so pleased with the commitment to make everything run smoothly - Kathy had a walky-talkie and gave cues to the quartet when different parts of the processional were ready to happen. My coordinator said she had never seen anything like it, and loved how it worked. Excellent service. I would definitely recommend the Leith Quartet!

Amazing Experience

Bruce was great at communicating, and the group was accommodating to my requests. They put together a lovely arrangement of a song I had asked for, and I couldn’t be happier. They were a great addition to my wedding day, I would highly recommend!

Perfect string quartet for wedding ceremony

We hired the Leith Quartet to play at our wedding ceremony and we were so happy with the result. Bruce had a great selection of pieces to choose from; he was very helpful with making our selections and he even accommodated a custom request. The Leith Quartet even provided a music coordinator on the day of the ceremony who also assisted with timing for our processional. The music was beautiful and everything was exactly as we had hoped for. We'd highly recommend the Leith Quartet to add beautiful string music for any occasion!
