Dandenong Ranges Wedding String Quartet

The Dandenong Ranges is one of Melbourne's most loved wedding backdrops, all fern gullies, forest canopy and garden venues tucked into the hills. We've performed at weddings throughout the area, including SkyHigh Mount Dandenong, Tatra Receptions, Lyrebird Falls in Kallista, Nathania Springs Receptions in Monbulk, the National Rhododendron Garden in Olinda, and Marybrooke Manor in Sherbrooke.

Many ceremonies here happen outdoors under tree cover or on open garden lawns, and weather can turn quickly in the hills, so shelter for an outdoor booking matters more here than almost anywhere else we perform. Larger, more open settings usually call for a full quartet, our FAQ page covers how we help you decide between quartet and trio.

What Our Couples Say

Aggie and Hamish

"The best experience ever. We had the absolute privilege and pleasure of having Animata play for our wedding ceremony. We couldn’t have asked for a smoother and more beautiful experience. The quality of the playing was sublime (as a classical musician myself, the quality was just beautiful).

We have had a smooth experience since the beginning of communication. Simone and the team were always quick to reply, and even learnt repertoire specifically for our wedding. The quality and care that was given to us was just such a blessing. They all went out of their way to curate the most special and “us” experience we could have imagined.

We have absolutely had the best experience, and couldn’t recommend Animata enough. We hope everyone has the pleasure of hearing you play, and collaborating with you!

Thank you for making our special day all the more special, it has been the most fantastic experience, and more than what we could have ever hoped for.

Thank you,

Aggie and Hamish"
