We had an amazing experience working with Allegro Quartet! They were very responsive, answered all my questions, and helped to make our wedding spectacular. In particular, I was so pleased with their ability to play a specific song that was outside their repertoire. I had a few songs in mind to walk down the aisle, but they were all pop/EDM songs. Vickie from Allegro Quartet took the time to listen to these songs and advised me as to which would work when translated to strings. Then they were able to craft a strings cover for the song I chose. When I heard it on my wedding day, it was beautiful and exactly what I wanted!
It was a pleasure having Allegro Quartet perform at our wedding. Having them play the music at our ceremony and cocktail hour added a touch of elegance we were looking for and we certainly admired their talent. They have a very expansive list to choose from, were reasonably priced, and were professional. We would highly recommend them. Thank you for sharing your gift and being a part of our wedding!
Allegro Quartet is incredible! We hired them to play before, during, and after our wedding ceremony and it was an amazing decision. They are very easy to work with and the communication throughout the planning process was top notch. They brought such a lovely sound and atmosphere to our courtyard wedding and we can’t recommend them enough!
We hired Allegro Quartet for our daughter’s wedding and they were absolutely amazing. We had them play for 2 hours which includes prior to ceremony, ceremony and cocktail hour, and they provided the elegant atmosphere we desired before getting the party started. Vicki was so helpful guiding our daughter,Colleen, in choosing appropriate music and making sure all of her choices worked. Thank you for helping to provide Colleen the ceremony of her dreams!
Vickie and Allegro Quartet sounded absolutely beautiful at our wedding and cocktail hour! In addition to playing the songs we wanted (Beatles, musicals, Disney, traditional music), they also learned an original song I had composed for our wedding ceremony to accompany my sisters' singing. They were wonderful and I highly recommend them!
We hired Allegro Quartet to play our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. They were incredible! We are so glad we decided to use them. They gave our wedding the hint of elegance we were looking for. Highly recommend!
I would highly recommend the Allegro Quartet. We hired them to play for our wedding and the music was absolutely beautiful. The musicians have an impressive array of songs to choose from, though we mostly ended up going with the classics. It was perfect for our ceremony!
My husband and I had been going back and forth about hiring a string quartet for our wedding ceremony. We met with Vickie from Allegro Quartet and we were sold right away! We didn't even interview any of the other quartets we'd researched. Vickie has an amazing energy about her, not only is she passionate about her music, but she also passionate about helping create the vision you have for your wedding.
I don't know what it is about live music, but it truly is a magical experience (pardon the cliché, but I don't know any other words to describe it)! I walked down to Canon in D and it truly is a moment I cannot forget. The quartet worked amazingly together and I can still hear the songs they played as I think back to that day (June 30th 2018). If you're looking to add that "magical" touch to your wedding, then I highly recommend Allegro Quarter, they're truly an amazing team! :)
Allegro was such an amazing addition to our wedding. We had them play for the ceremony and the cocktail hour. They gave me tips on what to play for every piece of the ceremony and took charge for the cocktail hour, while accepting recommendations. Loved them!
Having been to many weddings where the DJ pipes in wedding music for the ceremony, we thought that having a string quartet for our ceremony would add an elegant touch to our wedding. We are so glad that we decided to have one. Our planner sent us a short list of string quartets and we liked the audio samples from Allegro’s website the most and they were fortunately available for our date.
We had Allegro play a half hour before our outdoor ceremony while guests filed in and were seated, during the ceremony, and at our cocktail hour. Unfortunately we were busy being hidden away, lining up, and then taking pictures — so we were limited to hearing the quartet ourselves during the ceremony. We were blown away by how great they sounded and how nice it looked to have a quartet in our ceremony. We cannot speak enough about how much nicer it was than having a DJ play wedding tracks through a speaker.
We had Allegro play classical music and traditional wedding songs for our ceremony and it sounded awesome. We selected many contemporary songs from their extensive catalogue for the cocktail hour. Our guests raved about the music.
If you are on the fence about whether or not to have a quartet, do not hesitate. We can recommend Allegro without reservation. They were lovely to work with, played extremely well, and were very fairly priced.
I first saw Allegro at the bridal expo, that I didn't even want to step foot in, but my fiance dragged me there saying I would regret it if I didn't. Allegro was playing at the entrance and I was so glad I saw them. I had Allegro play my ceremony music and cocktail hour music. They did such an impeccable job. They were very easy to work with and accommodating. I have a musical background so I was very specific about what music I wanted to be played. They have a HUGE song list and they even arranged a song for me that I wanted to walk down the aisle to that wasn't on their list. All of my wedding guests kept commenting on how amazing they were. Such a great group of ladies.
We had a trio for our small outdoor wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. They did an amazing job!! Everyone raved about the music and loved the pop/contemporary numbers played during the cocktail hour. Super easy to work with and exceeded our expectations!!
Allegro Quartet did an amazing job playing at my wedding. They played for the pre-ceremony, ceremony, and cocktail hour and played a mix of classical and contemporary music. The music was absolutely perfect and they even wrote me a little wedding card! They were so sweet and did an absolutely lovely job performing.
My daughter and I chose the Allegro Quartet to play at her wedding due to their extensive play list. Their beautiful music was the first thing my guest encountered as they were seated at the ceremony and they continued to entertain during the cocktail hour and into the dinner. They were outstanding. Janet was highly professional and responded promptly to my emails. To me they were the icing on the cake for a beautiful wedding. You will not be disappointed.
Now, I will start off by saying that, going into the wedding planning process, I knew that I didn't want the traditional "hear comes the bride." Allegro Quartet played some of my favorite show tunes for the processional, which was such a great surprise for our guests, who are so used to the boring music everyone uses.
We had Allegro Quartet play during our cocktail hour as well and all of our guests were thrilled with their talent and repertoire. They play everything from The Beatles to Katy Perry to Phantom of the Opera.
Additionally, we provided them with a detailed list of the songs we wanted them to play during their sets and they played every song we had selected. It was truly details like that that made our wedding amazing. Thank you Allegro Quartet!!
It was my Mom's dream to have a string quartet at my ceremony and they did not disappoint. Easy to work with and played beautifully.
Allegro Quartet was definitely one of my favorite touches to my wedding! I am so glad I invested in this wonderful group of musicians! Vickie Thai was my primary contact and musician for my wedding day, and I could not have asked for a better experience working with her in the design of my ceremony and cocktail hour music. Vickie was very punctual in her emails, and was quick to mail me receipts for all payments. Vickie also stayed on the phone with me for a very long time discussing the music to be played and shared her insight! Vickie and the rest of Allegro Quartet made my ceremony perfect, and very classy! The cost of service was what I had expected for greatness, and well deserved. The music was beautiful and all of my guests were so impressed with the beauty they provided to the day! I loved how Allegro Quartet offered a long list of song options, which included modern rock songs, and others such as Phantom of the Opera (a favorite), and a classical version of "Wild Horses", which is the song that originally led me to sign a contract with Allegro after hearing them play at the Mesa Wedding Walk. Unfortunately, my groom and I missed most of our cocktail hour while we were out taking wedding photographs, but I am hoping my videographer and photographer captured moments of the quartet playing. My guests were all "wow'ed" by the splendor of Allegro Quartet. Since my groom and I missed the cocktail hour, Allegro Quartet played "The Prayer" a second time because they knew my groom loved that song, and they wanted him to enjoy it before they ended the evening. I am so thankful to have stumbled across Allegro Quartet! To Vickie, and the rest of the Allegro Quartet team, thank you for making my wedding so perfect and the happiest day of my life! It truly was a dream come true! I have memories that will last a lifetime! :-)
We had Allegro Quartet play during my ceremony and cocktail hour this weekend and they were phenomenal! From the beginning, the planning process was precise, complete, and detailed. I always felt this was one aspect of the wedding I didn't have to worry about. Most vendors I was chasing, but in this case, I never had to worry. There was a hug variety of music available. As they transitioned from "Marry Me" by Train into the wedding march and then back into the Beatles, it was flawless, professional, and beautiful. Can't recommend highly enough - a little something extra that made such a huge impact and helped make our day that much more special. (I missed the cocktail hour taking pictures, but heard rave reviews from all my guests that it was just as amazing as the ceremony!)
They were just amazing. Set the mood and played through our entire cocktail hour. Beautiful music to accompany a wonderful night. Incredibly easy to work with and were on top of every detail. 100% Recommend
We used Allegro Quartet for our ceremony and cocktail hour musicians and were very happy with their service. The musicians were professional and extraordinarily talented!
They provided a lengthy list of traditional and contemporary music that they already had arrangements for. They also provided the option for songs that they did not have in their repertoire for a fee. We chose to choose all the music for the ceremony and cocktail hour. We had a hiccup before the ceremony and it began 30 minutes late, but the musicians from Allegro never skipped a beat and most guests were not even aware that we started late!
Allegro Quartet added to our very personalized wedding by allowing us to chose songs we loved. I highly recommend them!
The musicians that played our wedding were excellent! We were able to hear them perform live at a bridal show and booked them as soon as we found our venue. They made the wedding extra special. We were able to select our ceremony and cocktail hour songs from an extensive list. Almost all of our music selections were non-traditional or non-classical music, but there were plenty of classical song selections available. Vickie Thai was our contact and she was great at communicating what she needed and when she needed it. We loved Allegro Quartet and would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants to have live music at their wedding.
For context on the cost rating, we had four musicians play for two hours.
I initially contacted Barbara of Allegro Quartet. She was very helpful and prompt and immediately after my contract was signed she put me in touch with the two musicians (Karen and Priscilla) who would be the string duet for two hours at my wedding. After an easy conversation about music choices with Priscilla I was all set! The process of hiring Allegro was made easy and hassle-free by the experience and efficiency of these three wonderful ladies.
On my wedding day Karen and Priscilla arrived even earlier than their initial set up time; they played beautifully and were praised by my guests. Their timing of the music was impeccable - as soon as they saw me appear they smoothly transitioned into my chosen 'Pachelbel's Canon' and smoothly concluded it upon my arrival at the altar (no timing on my part was necessary). The music was so beautiful and added such a level of elegance as to make it worth every penny. Thank you Allegro Quartet, Karen and Priscilla!
They had played numerous times at my ceremony site and so I communicated with them via email to go over all details. Very easy to deal with and the music was wonderful- just what I had in mind.
We are very happy with the performance of our quartet! The music was beautiful and it flowed perfectly! In addition, everyone so was nice!
We had the Alegro Trio perform for my daughter's ceremony and cocktail hour. The music was beautiful, they were professional, and we had many comments about how wonderful the music was. Could not be happier.
;They played a song at the end of the wedding that was not asked for.
The music sounded wonderful! I'm really glad I chose to book them.;After reviewing the wedding video (including extra footage that was not edited) I realized that they didn't play MOST of the songs I requested to be played before the ceremony. This was not a big deal, however, I specifically gave them a list of the songs I wanted them to play.
They were able to play the songs we requested AND they worked very well with our vocal soloist.;You are required to provide them shade cover if you have an outdoor event.
Their music is beautiful...received tons of compliments they also played for our cocktail hour. Very enthusiastic and easy to work with.
My sister wanted to sing at our ceremony. Allegro kindly offered to rehearse several times beforehand-- my sisters voice with the string quartet was unbelievable -- a beautiful memory! Also- do not be afraid to ask Allegro to play 'special songs' not currently on their repertoire. The extra fee is minimal and is definitely worth the added detail! We had a string version of a COLDPLAY song for our bridesmaids to process into- it was beautiful!
They made the moment perfect;Confirm your start time
they allowed us to choose music and learned peices for us.;Plan this in advance so they are very aware of the timings and exact music selections.
They were wonderful
