About Vendor
Learn more about this vendor for your event.
When you hire the Shaw Strings you get outstanding musicans as well as peace of mind! Founded in 1989, the Shaw Strings can provide you with a string quartet, trio, duo,solo harp or classical guitar. You can substitute a flute for the first violin if you wish. We charge by the event, not the exact time and arrive 1 hour prior to every event so that we can be ready to play as soon as your guests arrive. We work closely with your event planner and/or banquet manager or officiant. Our repertoire lists include classical, popular tunes and favorites from Broadway shows. If we don't have your song, we will work together with you to get an arrangement to personalize your wedding. The Shaw Strings consists of 65 carefully selected musicians who play together on a regular basis. We are not union musicians who have to work within very strict union rules, nor are we a pick-up group. We rehearse regularly and play several times a year as the Shaw Symphonette - usually for a fund raising project or civic event. Since we are not just a group of four, we don't have to worry about cancelling due to illness or family events. We will be there no matter what the weather! Your event is very important to us!

Shaw Strings:
Scott is a freshman at a music school in Boston and booked us within 10 days of the event. In fact there was so little time between the booking and the event I didn't get a deposit. Scott asked if he could sit in with us as our cellist and I agreed to let him play. Our second violinist got sick shortly before we left for the gig so we played with just the 3 of us. We arrived 45 minutes before the bride walked down the aisle. We played in a very tight space which barely worked for a trio and played 8 preludes, then the music for the parents to be seated and then the Canon in D for the bride and her bridal party. After the ceremony ended we played the Hornpipe fromBooked Events
