Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!
Quartet 515 is a Des Moines based string quartet that would love to be a part of your special day. As a group made up of professional musicians with extensive wedding experience, we have the skills and desire to work with you to ensure that your wedding music perfectly complements your ceremony.
For a wedding ceremony, we usually play 20 minutes before and after the ceremony as well as a special song for the wedding party entrance, wedding processional, a unity ceremony, and the recessional. We have a large repertoire of wedding music, but we can also arrange and play a requested song.
For more information about our quartet and to listen to us play, please visit www.quartet515.com.

We hired Quartet 515 for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and they truly elevated the entire day with their beautiful music. From the planning process to the event itself, they were an absolute joy to work with. Their extensive song list made it so easy to choose the perfect music for our special moments.
On the big day, they delivered flawlessly! We received countless compliments from our guests about how their performance added such a magical and elegant touch to the atmosphere. I cannot recommend Quartet 515 enough—they are professional, talented, and genuinely made our wedding unforgettable. If you’re looking for a string quartet for your event, look no further!

515 Quartet is absolutely amazing! I don't have enough good things to say about their musical gifts/talents and the ease of communication. I worked directly with Hannah, who was quick to respond, so helpful and very accommodating with any requests/questions. She attended rehearsal and stayed the entire hour to make sure all questions were answered/details confirmed. The music at our Wedding Mass was simply stunning, and 515 Quartet worked seamlessly with our outside lector. Numerous guests have complemented the music of 515 Quartet. I would absolutely recommend to any/everyone
Any questions?

Quartet 515 played beautifully at our outdoor ceremony! They were organized and easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. We loved that they were willing to learn a custom song for us. We couldn't recommend this Quartet more. LGBTQ friendly as well!

Quartet 515 was professional and played beautifully for our wedding ceremony! They handled by Type A controlling personality well for our pre-ceremony music and worked with us to accompany a soloist while we signed our marriage certificate. So glad we hired them!

Quartet 515 was wonderful to work with! I had reached out to them after we decided to move locations a few months out from our wedding day in March. I worked with Hanna, who was so responsive and answered any questions that I had. We received so many compliments from our guests afterwards. I requested a custom song choice for walking down the aisle to and it was so beautiful. My husband and I would highly recommend booking with Quartet 515 to any couple. Thank you so much!

Having been a fellow musician to the members of Quartet 515, they were my number 1 must have at my wedding. We booked them before anything else. They learned a new piece to accompany two singers at the ceremony and made my walk down the aisle the most magical moment I could have imagined. Our guests were impressed and I was overjoyed with how flexible and professional they were. From the moment we booked them I no longer had to stress about the music. Thank you for helping make my Dream day a reality!

My fiancé and I were thrilled to be able to hire Quartet515 for our wedding ceremony. The communication through the process of hiring them, during the planning process, during the ceremony and even after the event was top notch. We had the PERFECT day because of these wonderfully talented musicians. The praise we received from guests was phenomenal too. Highly recommended for any event, especially wedding ceremony.

As a music major, I had high standards for the music at my wedding. Quartet 515 consists of absolute professionals. Hana did an amazing job communicating and following through with exactly what I wanted. It actually started raining in the middle of our outdoor ceremony, and Quartet 515 was able to think on the spot and take cover (without a sound!) while still playing our recessional. If you want beautiful music and impressed guests, Quartet 515 is the easy choice!

Quartet 515 played during our wedding ceremony and it was BEAUTIFUL! I had nothing to worry about come our big day as I knew the quartet would be professional, on time, and sound amazing. They played while our guests arrived and also as they filed out of the room for cocktail hour. They played both contemporary and classical per our request! Definitely recommend using Quartet 515 for your next event - beats any DJ or sound system!

Where do I even start to sing enough praise to this group??!? Having a string quartet at my wedding was one of my biggest wishes, and this group exceeded what I always dreamed of. They first off were just amazing performers and they have great song selection. They also are extremely professional and quick to respond. But what really made them amazing was that they played outside in 45 degree cloudy weather, which is not ideal for their instruments. I also always wanted my ceremony outside and since they were sweet enough to play outside it became a reality. Would recommend to everyone!!!

I could not recommend Q515 more - they were so amazing! From timely responses to emails, to a phone call that melted the stress away regarding our vision for the wedding ceremony. They were professional, needed very little from us regarding setup and my favorite part, they composed two custom songs for our ceremony that we will never forget!

Quartet 515 went above and beyond to make my wedding ceremony everything I had dreamed of. They were always quick to respond, professional, and very accommodating. I made several specific requests and they were happy to fulfill them with a little extra cost. Quartet 515 was great to work with, not to mention their playing was spectacular!

So easy to work with and just beyond amazing! A string quartet was on my wedding wish list and I'm so happy we found Quartet 515! For the ceremony, we chose one song off of their repertoire list and two that weren't. For the cocktail hour, they did a modern choice of songs. It all sounded SO good! Highly recommend!

We hired Quartet 515 for our wedding at Glen Oaks Country Club to play for the ceremony and for the cocktail hour. They were very accommodating and responsive in communications and music selections leading up to the wedding, and they played simply beautifully on our wedding day.

Before I even had my wedding dress, my mom hired Quartet 515 for my wedding. Hanna was amazing to work with and answered all emails very quickly. I was able to pay a little extra for the quartet to play a song that was not previously in their playlist and it sounded amazing! They also played during our cocktail hour and although we weren't present for that part of the evening, our guests couldn't stop talking about how great the music was! Do not hesitate to hire Quartet 515!

Quartet 515 played at both our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. They were not only professional, prompt, and friendly, but also incredibly talented. I think all brides know how hectic the wedding day can be, and Hanna made everything so easy and stress-free. Their music brought many guests to tears, and I could not have imagined how much their music would add to my special day. Thank you Hanna, and Quartet 515!

We asked Quartet 515 to perform the music at our wedding ceremony, and it was absolutely perfect. We couldn't have asked for more professionalism, and they really are some of the most talented wedding musicians you could hire. We got so many compliments on the songs (which we chose from their set list), and they really brought the whole ceremony space together. I highly suggest working with them if you're a sucker for beautiful strings like we are! Thank you so much, Quartet 515!

Quartet 515 was professional, accommodating, and played beautifully at our wedding ceremony. When we enlisted their services, Hanna was quick to reply to our questions. We did pay extra to have a member at our rehearsal, which was well worth it. We had several attendees comment both during and after our wedding day that they really enjoyed the musical selections. I would highly recommend!

We had a lovely experience with Quartet515. They were professional and easy to work with before our wedding, and offered prompt responses to our emails. They have a large repertoire that they provided to us months in advance (and we took a long time to decide!). The music during our ceremony was beautiful, and the price was more than reasonable. I would definitely recommend them.

Hanna and Nina provided music for our wedding ceremony, and it was absolutely beautiful! They helped me pick the music for the ceremony when I had no idea where to start. They worked with our church coordinator the day of, so everything went so smoothly. They are so talented and professional, and they definitely added a special touch to our ceremony. I highly recommend them!
