Kara Strings is a London-based string ensemble bringing world-class live music to weddings across Italy and beyond.

Their musicians are conservatoire-trained and perform with London's leading orchestras, and the ensemble scales from solo violin to a full six-piece, which makes it straightforward to score every chapter of a day from the ceremony and aperitivo to the dinner. The repertoire spans timeless classical works, romantic film scores, Bridgerton-style string covers of modern pop, and a celebrated Bollywood specialism for South Asian celebrations. They've played for Netflix's Bridgerton itself, royal engagements, and venues including Claridge's, Hampton Court Palace and the V&A.

We love them for couples who want genuinely accomplished string playing and a repertoire that reaches well beyond the classical.

Good to know: travel, logistics and equipment are all handled by the ensemble, so none of it lands on you.
