String Quartets vs. DJs: The Class and Cost Conundrum
Summary:
Many brides and grooms agree on the vital role of music in their wedding, and recent trends show a preference for string quartets over DJs.Article:
When planning a wedding, many brides focus on details like colors and centerpieces. However, they often unite in their choice of music for the big day.
According to Chandler Judkins, owner of Las Vegas Wedding Music, string quartets are the top choice for couples tying the knot. The demand for these elegant ensembles has surged, eclipsing other musical offerings, including jazz quartets, solo pianists, and big bands.
“Our string quartet bookings have doubled, if not tripled, over the past two years,” Judkins remarks. “Las Vegas is becoming an increasingly sophisticated wedding destination, and string quartets are part of this trend.”
While DJs are often chosen for their affordability, many couples find themselves unsatisfied with the ambiance provided. If budget constraints were lifted, a string quartet would often be the preferred option.
Interestingly, the cost of hiring a DJ in Las Vegas is on the rise, with fees ranging from $2,000 to $5,000 in some of the city's top wedding chapels. Judkins finds these prices excessive.
“At Las Vegas Wedding Music, we never overcharge,” Judkins explains. “Our goal is to promote live music by keeping our prices reasonable. A string quartet for a wedding should cost under $1,000 for a few hours or under $800 for just the ceremony.”
He advises couples to carefully compare prices and warns that wedding coordinators may not always provide transparent information about live music costs.
“Coordinators often claim that a string quartet is expensive because they prefer working with the same DJ repeatedly,” says Judkins. “Some take a commission from the musicians' fees, citing the effort needed to find the perfect band.”
Judkins recommends that brides and grooms independently find a string quartet through a wedding music contractor. This approach ensures dependability, lets couples review sound demos, and avoids hidden coordinator fees.

“Couples who choose us understand that live music is unmatched,” Judkins states. “No matter what DJs claim to offer, they can’t replicate the unique experience of a live string quartet.”
