About

We hope that our friendly, helpful approach and our familiarity with the course of events at weddings will help your day run smoothly.

The Shrewsbury String Quartet has been playing together since 1999 and performs at over 200 weddings and corporate events each year. We offer a wide repertoire consisting of lighter classical selections, show tunes, Beatles and popular music. We have an extensive repertoire of liturgical music from the Catholic, Protestant and Jewish faiths. The musical selections can be tailored to fit your ceremony.

We get many compliments on the way we sound and we hear from a lot of brides that they appreciate how easy we are to work with.

No one thing provides more romance, ambiance, intimacy and elegance for a wedding ceremony than the addition of The Shrewsbury String Quartet. We provide a wonderful background and set an elegant and romantic mood, allowing for conversation among your guests, require no amplification, and will enhance both formal and informal occasions.

There are some quartets that will not perform at a Catholic Mass without an organist. We are very familiar with Catholic Masses and non-Mass ceremonies; we are very comfortable with or without an organist.

If there is music that you want that we do not have in our repertoire, we will do our best to find it for you.

We are pleased to welcome same sex couples (LGBT).

We provide music at over 200 weddings a year. We offer a wide repertoire consisting of lighter classical selections, show tunes, Beatles and popular music.

We will start playing prelude music about a half hour before the wedding starts as your guests are arriving.

We will play something special for the mothers and grandmothers to be seated, and processional music for the bride and bridesmaids to walk down the aisle.

We can also play special music during the ceremony, for a unity candle, communion, etc. We will then play for the bride and groom to recess from the altar, and postlude music as your guests are leaving.

In the South Jersey / Philadelphia / Entire State of Delaware, this would cost $775.00 for a quartet, $650.00 for a trio or $525.00 for a duo.

If you book us for a ceremony and cocktail hour, the combined fee would be $1275.00 for a quartet, $1025.00 for a trio or $775.00 for a duo.

Brilliant!

Tony is just wonderful - kind, flexible, and talented! He was very accommodating to our plan changes due to Covid. We got married November of 2020 with just our immediate family and canceled most of our vendors (DJs, Photobooth) based on the change in our party size.We didn’t want to compromise on the ceremony and are so glad we didn’t. Toni & team learned two songs for us and because we didn’t have a DJ he also played for our first dances and through our small luncheon. It was a very special part of our day.

Amazing musical addition to our wedding for a really reasonable price

Tony Gizzi and The Shrewsbury Quartet provided the ceremony and cocktail hour music for my wedding on 9.13.19. These talented musicians were so easy to work with. They provided many music selections and honored our choices. They played each song beautifully. The quartet music really made the whole wedding unique and elegant. I found them on Gig Masters and saw a clip of them playing for a mini wedding on The Rachel Ray Show. It was so gorgeous, I booked that day without much more thought. In person, they gave me goosebumps.

Tony mailed us a flash drive of music for free. I love having it as a keepsake to listen to their music. I also found their prices extremely reasonable. Plan to tip because they are worth more than their fee!!They were very professional and we were thrilled to have them as part of the wedding team.

We hired the Shrewsbury String Quartet for our wedding and I could not be happier!!! They were so wonderful in accommodating every song we wanted played, and they sounded absolutely lovely! I come from a very musical family, as does my husband, so we knew we needed the best, and we absolutely got it with the Shrewsbury String Quartet!!
