Vanguard String Quartet Ensemble is a D/FW based string quartet that plays weddings, parties and corporate events at an affordable price. We specialize in playing popular songs everyone knows arranged for strings. Our genres include Top 40, Pop, 80s, Classic Rock, Disney Songs, video game themes, Celtic and Bluegrass/Spiritual as well as wedding classics like Canon in D and the Wedding March, etc. So if you want to have a music playing in the background that everyone recognizes, or the groomsmen want to enter in to the Game of Thrones theme (we have done this a few times now), we are your wedding band! And if budgets are important, many of our past brides have called us the best value in wedding music they have experienced with an affordable price and so many free extras that other bands charge for (read our reviews!).

Vanguard Strings was the perfect addition to our intimate wedding ceremony! They were responsive and flexible with music selections and went with the flow when the weather turned its head and we had to squeeze indoors. Complied perfectly with the mask mandate as well! The music was beautiful and our guests loved it! They graciously took a last minute request from us for our reccesional music and played it perfectly! We highly reccommend them to anyone looking for the perfect musical entertainment for their event!

Best Choice
This string quartet was such a perfect choice for my wedding day! I could rave on and on about how marvelous the musicians did on the day. They were on time and well dressed, and incredibly respectful. Their organizer also was great at communicating and getting everything perfect. During a pandemic at that!

Highly Recommend
We hired Vanguard String Quartet for our wedding after finding their information on WeddingWire and highly recommend them. Their string quartet played during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and were perfect. They know how to play it all - classic wedding songs to top 40 songs, rock, 80s, bluegrass, and more. They were easy to work with, timely in their responses to our questions in the months leading up to the wedding, were flexible to customizations we asked for, and were all around kind and enjoyable to work with. We can’t thank them enough for making our wedding day so perfect!

Thank you so much... wish I could write a 5 star review of a bride to be in return! You were just so easy to work with, thorough, and timely.
Thanks for letting us be a part of your event. Your mom wrote us a really kind note as well.
