Weddings

Having now performed at over one thousand weddings in our eighteen-year history, STATUS CYMBAL has the experience and expertise to provide for so important an event. We understand that this is your special day, and that our music will add that finishing touch to create the perfect atmosphere of a truly wonderful occasion. Our uniquely extensive repertoire stretches from Vivaldi to the Verve. An entirely classical approach is often popular, as is a preference for completely modern pop and rock music. A mixture of all styles, from Baroque through Opera, Jazz and Musicals to recent hits is also available. You will almost certainly find that favourite number to make your wedding truly personal, but in the unlikely event that your tune is not already in our playlist, we can arrange it especially for the occasion.

 

If you require the quartet to play for your ceremony, we can give you specialist advice on the music to be played while your guests are assembling, the bride’s entrance, the signing of the register and the recessional. If you have chosen to have a traditional church wedding, we also have the ability to accompany hymns you may have selected.

 

We have performed at a many of the major UK wedding venues, including prestigious hotels such as the Ritz and Claridges, as well as a considerable number of countrywide stately homes. In fact, having also entertained at a wedding in the famous wine-producing Chateau Lafitte in Bordeaux, it is our proud boast that distance is no object, and we are also entirely at home in more conventional, perhaps less prominent surroundings.

Review

Wow! What can I say apart from thank you so much for playing at our wedding? You were absolutely amazing and we could not have chosen anyone better to play for us. It truly was breathtaking when I heard the first bars of Pachelbel as I entered the church. That was my favourite part of the day and it is all thanks to you ... all our family and friends said how wonderful you all were and that the choices of music played were brilliant. One thing I do remember is my brother and I singing and dancing on the terrace while you were playing I Heard It on the Grapevine. . you made our day even more of a fairytale for us and we cannot thank you enough - you really were amazing.
