Fort Lauderdale offers some of South Florida’s most beautiful and unique wedding and event venues — from the lush gardens of Bonnet House to the historic charm of Stranahan House to the modern luxury of beachfront resorts. Cala Strings brings world-class string music to every corner of Broward County, delivering performances that match the elegance of Fort Lauderdale’s finest settings.

Fort Lauderdale Weddings

Fort Lauderdale’s wedding venues range from tropical garden estates to sleek waterfront hotels. Bonnet House’s lush grounds provide a stunning backdrop for string quartet ceremonies, while Las Olas Boulevard’s boutique venues are perfect for intimate duo or trio performances. Our musicians know these venues and deliver performances tailored to each space.

Yacht & Waterfront Events

The Venice of America is synonymous with waterfront living. Our musicians regularly perform on yachts departing from Fort Lauderdale’s marinas, at waterfront estate events along the Intracoastal, and at beachfront celebrations. We bring the equipment and expertise needed for seamless waterfront performances.

Fort Lauderdale’s Distinct Character

Fort Lauderdale’s event scene is distinct from Miami’s — more intimate, more nautical, and rooted in a community of long-time residents and seasonal visitors who value quality over flash. Neighborhoods like Victoria Park, Coral Ridge, and Harbor Beach host understated but exquisite private events. Las Olas Boulevard provides a walkable backdrop for gallery events and restaurant buyouts. The arts corridor around the Broward Center for the Performing Arts draws cultural events year-round.

Our musicians are regulars throughout Broward County — from Wilton Manors garden parties to Lighthouse Point waterfront celebrations to Davie estate weddings. We bring the same professional standard to every Broward event that we deliver at South Florida’s most prestigious venues.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there travel fees for events outside Miami?
We serve all of South Florida. Events within Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties are included in our standard pricing. Events in Naples, Orlando, the Florida Keys, or other locations may include a travel fee. We'll provide a complete quote including any travel costs upfront — no surprises.
Do you perform at outdoor events?
Yes, we regularly perform outdoors at gardens, beaches, estates, and waterfront venues throughout South Florida. For outdoor events, we recommend having a shaded area or backup indoor space in case of inclement weather, as instruments are sensitive to direct sun and rain.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking 3-6 months in advance for weddings, especially during peak season (October through May in South Florida). Corporate events and private parties can often be accommodated with 2-4 weeks notice, depending on availability. Popular dates book quickly, so earlier is always better.
