Weddings

The String Collective has played at over 500 weddings in Victoria, so you can be assured that the music will create the perfect ambiance for your wedding day.

The String Collective wedding program

We recommend 1.5 hours for all wedding ceremony bookings. This includes 30 minutes of music as your guests arrive, music throughout the ceremony and music following the ceremony. Traditionally, music is played at 3 points throughout the ceremony and you can pick from the following examples or choose your own favourites.

The Processional

This is the moment everyone has been waiting for! The pieces that we recommend are easy to make shorter or longer depending on how long the aisle is and how long you wish to take on the day.

• Sheep May Safely Graze
• Canon in D
• Winter from the Four Seasons

The signing

At this point many couples like to request a song that means something special to them.

• Air by Bach
• Largo
• The Way You Look Tonight
• Ave Maria
• Jesu Joy
• Moon River
• An Affair to remember

The Recessional

The Recessional is upbeat and celebratory as you have just been announced husband and wife!

• Royal Fireworks Suite
• Spring from the Four Seasons
• The Arrival of the Queen of Sheba
• Hornpipe
