The perfect music for your wedding.

“Our experience with Canal was phenomenal. Selecting the songs to be played was super simple and straight forward. The musicians were on time and so low maintenance. The music was beautiful and really elevated our ceremony experience. While my groom and I were certainly caught up in the excitement of the day, our guests repeatedly commented on how lovely the string quartet music was. Not having to worry about or manage the group was a HUGE plus on the day with so many other things happening. We highly recommend Canal for your wedding!”

Weddings

Canal String Quartet has performed at hundreds of weddings since we started in 2016. We can help you curate the perfect setlist for your wedding or special event!

Prelude

We typically play a 30 minute prelude before your ceremony starts, as your guests arrive and find their seats.

Ceremony

Music for everyone walking down the aisle! Three songs is the standard – one for the wedding party, the bride, and the recessional at the end.

Cocktail Hour

Have us stay for cocktail hour! Pop music is our specialty, we have a huge library of songs to choose from. We’ll work with you to come up with the perfect playlist.

Reception

Want some nice elegant background music for your dinner reception before the DJ or band arrives? We can help transition your event into party mode with some of our upbeat selections.
